POLICY &
PROGRAMME RESOLUTION
Adopted by the 47th
Conference of at Nagpur on 8th to 11th August 2016
The
47th Conference of All India Audit & Accounts Association held
at Nagpur, Maharashtra from 8th to 11th August 2016 after
having deliberated on developments since the 46th Conference of 2013
at Guwahati in various fronts came to the conclusion that the attack on the
livelihood of the common man is on the rise. Misery upon misery is heaped on
the common man through different policy initiatives and legislations at the
behest of crony capitalist forces. The promised “achhe din”, the thrust of the 2014 electioneering by the
present day ruling dispensation, has just remained as slogan, as the common man
is subjected to every kind of misery, be it because of rising prices of
essential commodities or rising tensions on trivial issues.
The decisions to allow unbridled entry of FDI
in every sector including Railways, Defence and retail has thrown big question
mark on the future of the nation and its economic independence. The fast moves
to open up the Indian labour markets to the mercy of corporate world are
something that should alarm each one of us. The hard earned rights that the
worker earned through sacrifices of many are being upturned. The proposed
changes to the labour laws of the country are to be fought back at any cost.
The
All India Audit & Accounts Association welcomes the efforts of the Trade
Unions and mass organisations to bring the unity of all the working class and
democratic movements in the fight against these anti people policies of the
government. The united action of organising one day strike on 2nd
September 2015 and the decision to go for another one day strike on 2nd
September 2016 are the only hopes of suffering people to resist and repulse the
attack of the government on their livelihood. We hail the unity achieved by
these movements and now the Audit employees can safely join the movement under
the broad umbrella of the Central Trade Unions. This Conference is of the
conscious view that the naked anti people, anti worker and pro-capitalist force
policies of the government can be resisted and fought back through sustained
and continuous united actions of the working class and people at large. The 47th
Conference of All India Audit & Accounts Association held at Nagpur from 8th
to 11th August 2016 therefore, unanimously resolve to join every
struggle decided by the Central Trade Unions and independent Federations and
endorsed by Confederation of central Government Employees & Workers against
the anti worker, anti people economic policies, including the proposed one day
strike on 2nd September 2016.
Part – II
The
47th Conference records its total rejection of the recommendations
of the 7 CPC on the demands of the central government employees on minimum
wage, fitment factor, MACPS etc. The Conference further rejects its proposals
on the pay scales recommended to Audit & Accounts cadres, ignoring all
scientific and factual presentations. This Conference concludes that the
recommendations of the 7 CPC has perpetuated the ill-treatment of the audit and
accounts cadres at the hands of the executive.
The
47th Conference further resolves to continue the struggle under the
banner of Confederation of Central Govt Employees and Workers for securing
negotiated settlement on all the outstanding issues and also for revival and
effective functioning of JCM at all levels.
The
demand for restructuring of cadres in IA&AD is not going to be achieved by
merely raising demands. This Conference
of the considered view that long drawn struggles are required to achieve it.
The 47th Conference, therefore, resolves to pursue the demands
organisationally and legally, wherever required and feasible, independently as
well as under the banner of Joint Action Committee of Accounts and Audit Employees
and Officers Organisations.
This
47th Conference calls upon all the personnel in IA&AD to rally
under the banner of All India Audit & Accounts Association in pursuance of
the charter of demands given below. This Conference makes a special appeal to all
those who were misled to return to the parent organisation, in the larger
interest of the audit and accounts fraternity.

SUCCESSFUL STRIKE ON 2ND
SEPTEMBER 2016 -
MORE THAN 15 CRORE WORKERS STRUCK
WORK
HQrs
of All India Audit & Accounts Association extends its warm greetings to
more than 15 crore workers for the successful strike on 2nd September
against the disastrous economic policies pursued by the government of the day
and in pursuance of the 12 point charter of demands. We also greet all the
central government employees for their participation in the strike called by
the Central Trade Unions.
Our
members participated in the strike in Kerala, Bengaluru, Guwahati, Agartala,
Kolkata and Chandigarh (Punjab). In Hyderabad, Gwalior and Delhi the Executive
Committee went on strike and held demonstrations. In Chennai, Allahabad and
Bhopal lunch hour demonstrations were held. In Kolkata, the Executive Committee
and activists participated in the strike and sat on dharna in offices of AG
(A&E), AG (Audit) and DGA (Central) whereas the strike was total in other
offices.
We
once again greet all the workers for their splendid participation in the one
day strike on 2nd September 2016. Press Statement issued by
Confederation is enclosed.
We
take this opportunity to have self introspection with regard to the
participation of audit & accounts personnel in the strike so that
corrective steps are taken for future.
CONDEMN INVOKING OF ESMA ON NURSES’
STRIKE IN DELHI
The
Aam Aadmi Party led Govt in Delhi and Lt General of Delhi are one in crushing
the strike by Nurses of various state & central govt hospitals of Delhi
demanding rectification of anomalies out of 7 CPC recommendations. Instead of
engaging the striking Nurses through negotiations the Delhi Govt has invoked
Essential Service Maintenance Act (ESMA) to deal with the strike. This shows
the anti-working class character of AAP Govt of Delhi. We condemn the brutality
unleashed on the Nurses of Delhi.
With
greetings,
Yours fraternally

Dear Comrades,
47th
Conference – Hats off to Hosts & Participating Units
The 47th Conference of
All India Audit & Accounts Association held at Nagpur from 8th
August 2016 to 11th August 2016 commenced at SK Vyas Nagar (South
Central Zone Cultural Centre, Nagpur) with the hoisting of the Association flag
by Com Subhash Chandra Pandey, President at 2 pm on 8th August 2016 amidst
thunderous sloganeering, in the presence of Com AK Padmanabhan, President,
CITU, Com KKN Kutty, President, Confederation of Central Govt Employees and

earned rights of the workers are under attack. The forthcoming strike on 2nd
September 2016 should be a forceful statement by the workers that they are
determined to carry the struggle till the end, serving an ultimatum to the
government. The campaign on the charter of demands and educating the workers on

September 2016, stated Com AK Padmanabhan.

before the audit & Accounts personnel and the task before the Conference to
strengthen the organisation to withstand and outgrow the challenges.

from Com S Mohan, Secretary General, All India Audit & Accounts Officers
Association.
President announced that the
discussion on Secretary General’s report and Accounts would commence in the
first session of 9th August (2nd day) and called for
names of participants in the discussion.
The house adjourned for the day at
9.10 pm.
The second day’s (9th
August 16) session commenced at 10 am.
Com P Prabhakar, President, All
India Audit & Accounts Officers Association, recalling his long Association
with All India Audit & Accounts Association greeted the Conference. Com
Prabhakar also conveyed the greetings on behalf of Com S Mohan, Secretary
General, All India Audit & Accounts Officers Federation who is indisposed
and hence could not make it to the Conference.
Com KKN Kutty, President,
Confederation spoke at length on the history of audit movement, the leading
role by it in the yesteryears and the contribution it makes to the common movement
of the Central Government employees. Speaking on the role of employees’
organisations in the present days’ context and the challenges before it, Com
Kutty placed before the house certain proposals for its consideration that would
help us to develop a really democratic, vibrant organisation encompassing all
sections of personnel working in the department.
Com S Radhakrishna, former Vice
President, greeted the Conference saying that this is his 11th
Conference. Recalling the yester years, he said the first strike decision,
after his joining the service, was taken at Nagpur Working Committee in 1981.
In Ghaziabad Conference in 1981, demand was raised for Vyasji’s stepping down.
Vyasji was criticised for giving more time for Confederation.
Com Radhakrishna urged everyone to
study the books ‘Inception and Growth of Trade Union movement in India’ by Com
Sukomal Sen and ‘Panorama of P&T Trade Union Movement’ by NJ Iyer. He said
that these books have guided him all through these years. Attempts made by Com
Raja in 2011 to revive the movement, after the mass victimisation in the
aftermath of mass casual leave in 2010, did not succeed. He recalled the old
days when the Vyasji or Warrier visited a station, the whole unit leadership
would spend time with them upto midnight. Now a days the visiting leaders are
left alone in their rooms after the days business is over. The interaction with
the leaders would help the unit leaders and would also make the leaders alert.
He concluded by stating that there is no short cut to success except hard work,
but to expect the apex leader alone to work hard and bring results would be
quite self damaging and all have to work
together to bring better results and strengthen the organisation.
Secretary General welcomed Com PK
Mittal and AK Shrivastava, Secretary General and Vice President of All India
Federation of Divisional Accounts Officers and Divisional Accountants and
invited them to the dais. Both Com Pavi Kant Mittal and AK Shrivastava greeted
the Conference. Com Mittal thanked for the help rendered to his Federation by
Com Raja during the 7 CPC deliberations.
President then announced the

subject Committee in the afternoon session of 10th July 2016.
Delegates and observers greeted Com Mishra with sloganeering. Com Mishra
explained the efforts of NJCA with 7 CPC and there after including the strike
preparation and meeting with group of ministers. He stated that the strike is
only deferred not abandoned. If the government backtracks from its commitment,

Com

offered vote of thanks to Com Mishra.
Comrade
Anindya Mitra submitted the report of the credential Committee – the Conference
is attended by 55 units, 133 delegates (including 12 from National Executive
Committee) and 88 observers. The House adopted the credential Committee report.
List of delegates and observers with Unit name was made available to all Units.
After adoption of the credential Committee Report, President announced the composition
of the house as final.
Item
No 6 of the agenda was then taken up.
The
Report on Organisation prepared by the Secretary General was already circulated
to the house.
The
proposal on the organisational part with regard to financial position of the
organisation was moved by Com KL Gautam. Com Gautam, in detail, presented the
present position and the need to have a financially healthy organisation. Com
Gautam proposed a special fund of Rs 500/ per member from the arrears of 7 CPC
to be collected and remitted to HQR by every Unit. It was also proposed to
collect another Rs. 1,000/ from those AAOs who are benefitted from the CAG’s
order treating AAO as direct recruit for the purpose of MACP. It was further
decided that all the Units should pay the special fund of Rs 500/ per member
before 31st December 2016.
After
some discussion, the proposals were unanimously adopted by the House.
Com V Nageswara Rao presented the
organisation report on one day strike on 2nd September, explaining
in detail the charter of demands and the situation prevailing in the central
government employees’ front. The House unanimously resolved to organise the one
day strike on 2nd September 2016.
Item No 7 of the agenda, amendment
to Constitution, was moved by Com KL Gautam. It was proposed to raise the HQr
quota per member per month to Rs 15 and the Units raising their subscription to
atleast Rs 30/- per month from April 2017. Units from West Bengal raised
objection to HQr quota being raised to Rs 15/- per member per month and
insisted that it should be revised to only Rs 12/- per member per month.
President, intervening in the discussion, proposed that the house may agree to
revision of HQr Quota to Rs 12/ per member per month from 1st April
2017. The House agreed to the proposal moved by the President.
The Conference also advised all the
Units to revise the rate of monthly subscription to atleast Rs 30/- per member
with effect from 1st April 2017.
President proposed that item No 9 of
the agenda i.e. developments in the common front of CG employees may be
considered as having taken up and discussed as Coms KKN Kutty and Shiva Gopal
Mishra did speak on the issues elaborately and clarified the position. The
House agreed in unison with the proposal and item No 9 was considered as
discussed and summed up.
The house adjourned for the day at 7
p.m.
The host unit had arranged an
exciting musical evening after 7 pm that reveled the delegates and observers.
The session commenced at 9.30 am on
the fourth day i.e. 11th August 2016.
Com RK Shrivastava, former
President, addressed the house. Com Shrivastava, recalling his experiences with
the movement since 1960s to late 1990s, exhorted the delegates and observers to
give more time to organisation. He reminded the house that no organisation has
ever performed well on the shoulders of one person – it is the collective will
of the organisation that will bring outstanding results. If everybody expects
the Secretary General to perform miracles, it won’t be correct, rather it would
be the beginning of an end, he cautioned.
Com Shrivastava requested all Units,
delegates and observers to implement the programmes given by the HQr
religiously (though the word is bit misplaced) and send communications on time
to HQr. This itself would bring about a electrifying change in the scenario. He
also pointed out one deficiency that is spreading – that is, lack of reading
habit.
Com Shrivastava concluded by stating
that he is proud of audit movement and is confident that if we all work
unitedly, the movement will reach new heights.

Secretary General and former President of All India Audit & Accounts
Officers Association, Com Harishankar Tiwari, former Assistant Secretary
