Dear
Comrades,
As we all know, our views on the
proposed restructuring of cadres have already been submitted to the CAG. The
cadre restructuring committee formed by CAG has convened joint meeting of all
the recognised Federations on 7th March 2018.
Know Our Proposals and its
distinctiveness
The proposals that are submitted by
us have two parts – one functional and two career progression.
We have visualized the changes that
may occur in the days to come and proposed effective mechanisms to face and
overcome those changes and strengthen the fundamentals of the functioning.
The implementation of IFMS (or
IFHRMS) and its impact on both audit and accounts cannot be ignored; rather it
has to be seen with all seriousness. CAG should ensure discharge of the
constitutional function related to Government accounts and make it I.T. (Information
Technology) based and strengthen it.
Keeping in view of the complex and
purely technical, knowledge based functions that we discharge, we have demanded
5 time-bound promotions in one’s career.
The whole of IA&AD should have
only one nomenclature – such as Auditor, Sr Auditor, Assistant Audit Officer,
Audit Officer etc.
The SA should get a non functional
promotion to Pay Matrix Level 7 on completion of 5 years as SA. SA should get
further promotion as AAO. And there should not be any direct recruitment in the
AAO cadre, it should be filled in through SAS Exam (60%) and promotion of SA
Grade II (40%). The AAO cadre shall consist of SAS qualified and promotees from
SA Grade II. Further promotion to AO be from the combined gradation list of
AAO.
We also propose that the recruitment
rule for each cadre should earmark certain per centage for unilateral transfer/
deputation. (Today it is against the direct recruitment quota).
DEO should be integrated with main
stream cadres, ensuring their promotion as Auditor and stenographers getting to
share the promotional avenues at HQr office are also proposed.
We have also demanded that post of
LDC may be upgraded and merged with DEO as the cadre of LDC has become
redundant.
Whether Submitting Proposals are
Enough?
As stated earlier, the Cadre
Restructuring Committee headed by Shri. V. Kurien would meet all Federations
from 3 pm onwards on 7th March 2018.
The way the Committee is going ahead
– without representation to the Staff Side – creates doubts in our mind that
whether the whole exercise is a ploy to implement the ideas the administration
have? How far we can expect from this exercise?
Well drafted, well intended proposals
and presentation of it in the most effective manner may not bring any desired
results. These demands have to be backed up with mass mobilisation. This is the
need of the hour.
Every Unit should cause detailed
discussion on the proposals and take the message of time bound 5 (five)
promotions to everyone (from the entry cadre) to each and every employee to
generate enough support. That alone would ensure career progression to
personnel of IA&AD. CAMPAIGN WEEK may be observed by every Unit by
postering, distributing hand bills, holding group meetings etc. The HQr does
not propose any specific period for this Campaign Week. Each Unit/Station may
decide the period suiting it, preferably in March 2018. The Campaign Week may
be captioned “5 time promotions- our right –know our proposals on cadre
restructuring”.
All the Units may inform the HQr of
the details of the proposed campaign week. On observance of the programme, a
detailed report may be sent to HQrs.
With greetings,
Yours fraternally
