Confederation News : Meetings held on minimum wage, fitment formula and allowances with disappointing results
CIRCULAR DATED 26TH OCTOBER 2016
REVISION OF MINIMUM PAY AND FITMENT FORMULA
2ND MEETING OF THE GROUP OF SENIOR OFFICERS WITH JCM (NC) STAFF SIDE
DISAPPOINTING
2nd Meetings of the Group of Senior Officers (Constituted as per the assurance given by Group of Minister to NJCA) to discuss the grievances arising out of recommendations related to 7th Central Pay Commission, was held with JCM (NC) staff side on 24.10.2016 at 4 PM. The staff side explained in detail the justification for modification in the minimum pay and fitment formula, which was already explained in the memorandum submitted to Cabinet Secretary on 10th December 2015 and also in the presentation made before Joint Secretary Implementation Cell and Empowered Committee of Secretaries headed by Cabinet Secretary.
From the response of the Senior Officers, it is not clear whether they are mandated to submit a proposal on increasing the Minimum Pay and Fitment formula to Government, as assured by the Group of Ministers on 30th June 2016. Even though, the time frame of four months is almost over, the urgency and seriousness was lacking on the part of the Group of officers. It seems that that Government is adopting a delaying tactics or to deny the assured increase. Perhaps, they may recommend an increase in minimum pay and fitment formula at a later date, but it is quite uncertain.
Confederation National Secretariat after reviewing these developments has decided to intensify the campaign and agitational programmes demanding the Government to honour its assurance given to NJCA leadership and also to settle the 20 point charter of demands. Make the 7th November 2016 mass dharna programme a grand success. Ensure maximum participation of employees in the 15th December 2016 massive Parliament March. Get ready for strike.

The issue was raised in the JCM Standing Committee meeting held on 25.10.2016 by the staff side.

A 300 % Salary Hike Has Been Proposed For President Of India Pranab Mukherjee
In the past days, the Modi government saw a lot of commotion amid the unhappy central government employees with regard to the problems related to minimum wages. The knotty issue has since remained a pressing agenda for many, until today.
In a move that almost looks too good to be true, the Modi government has proposed an increase in the salary of President and the Vice President of India.
Right now, the President withdraws Rs 1.50 lakh per month, the Vice-President Rs 1.25 lakh and the Governor of a state Rs 1.10 lakh.
After the implementation of the 7th pay commission the Cabinet Secretary, who is the topmost bureaucrat in the country, gets Rs 2.5 lakh per month and a Secretary in the Union government draws Rs 2.25 lakh.
But now, the President’s salary will be 5 lakh and the Vice President’s Rs. 3.5 lakh. The spouses of the Presidents will be receiving Rs 30,000 as compensation.
According to sources, the union ministry has already prepared a cabinet note on the proposed salary and is about to present it to the finance committee for a final nod.
Ever since the 7th pay commission swooped in, the salary of the two highest employees of Indian Government looked like peanuts. It increased the pay of the cabinet secretary with more than Rs 1 lakh than that of the President.
The pay commission doesn’t declare or decide the salaries of the President or the Vice President and the prerogative to effect a change lies with Parliament and the government.
The last hike was given in the year 2010 when the salaries were increased by 300%.
The President’s wages was increased to Rs 1.50 lakh per month from Rs 50,000, the Vice-President's to Rs 1.25 lakh from Rs 40,000 and the Governor's salary o Rs 1.10 lakh from Rs 36,000.

WCD Ministry to set up Inter-Ministerial Committee and an e-platform for effective redressal of complaints of sexual harassment at workplace
The Minister of Women and Child Development, Smt. Maneka Sanjay Gandhi held a review meeting on implementation of the Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013 in New Delhi today. Officials from the WCD Ministry, DoPT, Ministry of Youth Affairs & Sports, Ministry of Home Affairs, Ministry of Railways and Department of Financial Services were present. Smt. Maneka Sanjay Gandhi expressed her concern that the complaints of sexual harassment are not being handled in a timely as well as sensitive manner. She also expressed her concern that harassment often continues over a period of time and it is only after it becomes unbearable that a woman comes out to complain. In such situations, it is the duty of Internal Complaints Committee to decide on the complaint in the shortest possible time. The Minister also pointed out that the transfer of the aggressor can never be a solution to such a complaint and there should be harsher punishments when the complaint is found to be true.
2. After extensive deliberations, the following decisions were taken:
(i) The Ministry of WCD will set up an inter-ministerial committee headed by a senior official of the WCD Ministry. This committee will review the progress of disposal of complaints of sexual harassment, get a standardized training module prepared in collaboration with ISTM, ensure that heads of Internal Complaints Committee of all ministries/departments are given training on how to handle the complaints.
(ii) The ministry will be establishing a secure electronic platform for any woman employee of the government to file a complaint under the Act directly to the Ministry of WCD. These complaints will be then taken up with the respective ministries/ departments. This will enable a monitorable and transparent system of grievance redressal under the Act.
(iii) All ministries/ departments will furnish a monthly report to WCD ministry on the number of complaints received, disposed, pending and action taken etc.
(iv) All ministries/ departments and attached offices will furnish the annual statistics of complaints received and disposed under the Act in their Annual Reports. It was also decided that the inter ministerial committee will create a panel of resource persons from which ICCs can take the external members. In another important decision taken at the meeting today, all the training programmes of all services will have a module on the Act and DoPT will issue necessary instructions for this.
(v) It was also decided that the respective cadre controlling authority will keep every complainant under observation for a period of five years so that she is not subjected to any further administrative harassment as a result of her having complained against a male superior.
(vi) It was agreed that the Act, the rights of a woman official and the responsibility of the ICC must be given adequate publicity through different methods including the websites of the ministries/ departments/ attached offices.

Documentary "The Red Box" is part of the line-up at the Delhi Shorts International Festival, which begins on November 6
KOTTAYAM, October 26, 2016
Chemanna Petti (The Red Box), a short film based on a newspaper report, has been selected for this year’s Delhi Shorts International Film Festival. The fifth edition of the festival begins on November 6.
The 13.5-minute documentary by Pius Scaria Pottenkulam, looking at the changing face of the Indian postal system through the life of a lonely postal woman manning a one-of-a-kind post office in the country, is based on a report ‘mail @Vembanad PO’ that appeared in The Hindu on August 21, 2007. The report tells the story of Vembanad Kayal Post Office, Pin 688006, perhaps the only one that covers a lake, and the Extra Department (ED) clerk V.P. Seethamani, who dons many roles at this post office.
The documentary tells its story in three segments, one taking a nostalgic look at the old days when letters were part of a culture: the long wait for the letters informing of an employment offer and those from loved ones from far-off lands.
Enduring symbol
The Red Box is always a symbol of love, says the director. The second segment speaks of the history of communication and the postal system.
The final segment talks about the present situation, the fall of the good old post offices because of a decline in letter-writing and the arrival of countless modes of communication that have made institutions such as the Vembanad Kayal PO look like fossils. The segment pans through the life of Seethamani, who has been working as an ED clerk for 27 years.
From nearly 5,000 letters a day in its heyday, the traffic has come down to not more than 150 letters a day at the post office, most of them pensions, she says.
The film concludes with a long-cherished dream of Seethamani, who wants to “don a government uniform” before she retires.

Postal department has not lost its sheen, says MP
KURNOOL, October 27, 2016
The passion for hobbies such as collection of stamps and coins must be developed from childhood, to gain knowledge on history, culture, mythology and other aspects, Kurnool MP Butta Renuka said on Wednesday.
The Postal Department has not lost its sheen and has a significant place despite widespread use of smartphones and information sharing technologies, the MP said after inaugurating the Philately Bureau at the head post office.
Ms. Renuka lauded Post Master General Sanjiv Ranjan for taking up multifarious activities to develop the department. She complimented the students on exhibiting a wide range of stamps and first-day covers.
SSY passbooks
The MP and PMG presented Sukanya Samruddhi Yojana passbooks to parents of girl children. The beneficiaries included 45-day-old M. Adwithi. Commendation certificates were issued to department employees for meritorious service. Mementos and certificates were presented to students who succeeded in essay writing, elocution, letter writing and other contests conducted during Philately Week.
Mr. Ranjan asserted that he would leave no stone unturned to serve the people of Rayalaseema.
The Philately Bureau in Kurnool was one of the best in India, he added.
He presented a memento to Pratap Reddy of Guntur who purchased philately stamps worth Rs.1 lakh.
Superintendent of Post Offices K.V. Subba Rao said the Philately Bureau was the first to be started in Rayalaseema. He spoke about the department’s progress since issue of the first postage stamp in 1854 and the first post-Independence era stamp in 1947.
Postcards were widely used during the freedom movement, said Hotels Association president K.C. Kalkura. Of the over 5,000 stamps released so far, Andhra Pradesh’s share was less than 200, he said. Stamps on several eminent personalities of Andhra Pradesh were not issued, he said.
Assistant Director of Posts Ghouse Azam, Post Master David, postal employees and students of Montessori and Sister Stanislas high schools participated.

It has been brought to our notice by Circle unions that the CPMGs have issued orders to deliver the e-tail articles booked by e-Commerce Companies on every Sunday, religious holidays and on the day of festival also.
In this connection we would like to draw your kind attention towards the decision taken on this subject in the Department Council meeting of JCM and instructions were issued to all heads of Circles in this regard vide Directorate letter No. 16/56/2011-SR dated 8th July,2011 which were again reiterated vide No. 08/15/20111-SR dated 09.11.2012.
Further it is also brought to your kind notice that the same reply was given by Secretary Post to the Parliamentary Standing Committee vide Directorate No. 16/51/2011-SR dated 08/7/2011 through Lok Sabha Secretariat.
But now all these orders are being defied by the Heads of Circles.
We are not against the development of Department. But the employees should not be deprived from their legitimate rights of availing weekly off and religious and festival holidays.
It is therefore requested to kindly cause suitable instructions in this regard and on the day of Deepawali officials should not be ordered to perform this duty.
A positive action is highly solicited .
With regards.
