Wage hike in 7th Pay Commission

Comrades ,

The 7th CPC has cheated the 35 lakhs Central Government Employees and 50 lakhs pensioners, by announcing meagre 14.29% wage hike, in actual term of increase for serving employees after deduction of Income tax, enhanced subscription of CGEIS, licence fee, CGHS etc the net increase is actually varies from 1% to 4 % increase.

The similar situation was existing for central Government employees during the 5th CPC , as the 5th CPC had recommended 20% wage hike after strike notice was served then the Third Front Government agreed to provide 40% wage hike, recently the 6th CPC had provided 54% wage hike.This is lowest wage hike by any pay commission.

The Central Government Employees are having 10 years wage revision against the basic principle of 5 years wage revision adopted by all other Government agency such as Banks Employees, PSU employees etc. The bank employees were initially offered around 10% wage hike , after sustained trade union action they got 15% wage hike from with effect from 1st November 2012. Cumulatively it works out to more than 35 % wage hike for 10 years. The AP and Telangana state government employees got recently 40 % wage hike the pay commission of AP had also adopted Dr. Aykroyd formula and 15th ILO norms and fixed at Rs 13,000/- minimum wage as on 1st July 2013 , if we calculate the minimum wage on this basis for the Central Government Employees the minimum wage works out to Rs 25,000/- and fitment formula of 3.57 .

Comrades let us fight united under the NJCA banner to achieve a decent wage hike, the 7th CPC has erred in the calculation of minimum wage for the Central Government Employees it has fixed at Rs 18000/ against the staff side demand of Rs 26,000/-. while calculating the minimum wage as per Dr. Aykroyd formula and 15th ILO norms the 7th CPC has taken wrong prices of the essential items for example the price of one kg of pulses as Rs 97.84 against the market price of Rs 180/- , similarly the price of one kg of rice and wheat as Rs 25.93 against the market price of Rs 50/- & Rs 40, and 7th CPC has modified the Dr. Aykroyd formula and 15th ILO norms. The 7th CPC has taken 125% DA into consideration, at present the DA is likely to cross 125% , the prices of essential commodity including rice and pulses are showing increase in last month and further rise due to floods and draught in many states.

Where there is unity there is always victory

“All for one and one for all, united we stand divided we fall.”

“All for one and one for all.”

“We are only as strong as we are united, as weak as we are divided.”

Dear Members ,

All the above quotes given by the great people.  Now it’s time to be United... Our team has previously submitted the 7th Central Pay Commission report, as a result the Hon’ble Commission has allowed us to compete at the examination for the posts of Sr. Postmaster.  Our team during its recent visit to the Directorate submitted its Memorandum regarding modifications to be done to the 7th CPC recommendations in favour of our Esteemed Cadre.  It’s time to be united and wait for the Victory.. which is almost.. at our doors. 

With all of your active co-operation, Team AIAPC putting all its best efforts to accomplish the victory.

Tremendous Activities of TeamAIAPC at the Directorate during 07/12/2015 & 08/12/2005

This is for favour of information of all of our friends in Postmaster Cadre that in spite of being an un-recognized association AIAPC not only entered in the office of the 7th Central Pay Commission but also submitted its Memorandum. All of you may have noticed that no any unions / associations found their place in the report of the 7th CPC excepting IP Association who is going to get their demand fulfilled after a long battle for 15 years (approx), but the 7th CPC has given a ‘DISTINCT EMPHASIS’ on the demand of our cadre and recommended the following in its report submitted to the Hon’ble Minister of Finance:

“Accordingly the Commission recommends that while 25 percent of the posts of Senior Post Master may continue to be filled up from Post Master Gr.III through seniority based promotions, eligible officers from the Post Masters’ cadre (Postmaster Gr.II and Postmaster Gr.III) may also be permitted to appear for LDCE along with Inspector (Posts) for the balance 75 percent of the Senior Postmasters’ posts”.

MEETING with Department To Upgrade the Recmondations of 7th C.P.C.

Dear Friends,

As per the programme ,Today in Dak Bhawan there was an Important Meeting took place to discuss the impacts of Recomondations of 7th CPC.

THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT SECRETARY(POSTS) AND ENTIRE POSTAL SERVICE BOARD SHOWED THEIR POSITIVENESS AND AGREED TO TAKE-UP THE MATTER WITH MINISTERY TO UPGRADE THE GP OF POSTMASTER CADRE AS WELL AS SR. POST MASTER LIKE GROUP'B'

THE FOLLOWING POINTS ARE DISCUSSED POSITIVELY IN THE MEETING:----

With reference to 7th CPC report, this is to bring to your kind notice that 7th CPC has ignored

completely the newly created Postmaster Cadre and LSG/HSG supervisory structure in operative 

 side. It is to intimate that IPO and LSG cadre official were in the same pay structure during the 4th 

 

CPC. Though the recruitment procedure changed to one cadre the duties and responsibilities of 

 

Postmaster/Supervisor have enormously increased with introduction of computerisation in the post 

 

offices. It is felt by the cadre that neither department, nor CPC has taken any consideration for the 

 

changes being made in the department.

Though the department has agreed for cadre restructuring after the 6th CPC, the

recommendations agreed and approved by unions/associations have remained in liquid state till

date and no action has been initiated in this direction before 7th CPC, neither the department, nor 

 7th CPC has recommended any revision of pay structure for Postmaster Cadre/LSG-HSG

Supervisors.

The 7th CPC has recommended 5400 grade pay to Group B cadre and forgot to note

that the Sr. Postmaster also belongs to Group B and his/her grade pay also must be fixed at

5400 instead of 4800.

Hike and Effect

Pay commission recommendations aren’t inflationary. But the fiscal deficit targets may prove unrealistic.

The Seventh Central Pay Commission has recommended an overall increase of Rs 1.02 lakh crore at a growth rate of 23.55 per cent in pay, allowances, and pension (PAP) for Central government employees. More specifically, the increase is 16 per cent in pay, 63 per cent in allowances and 24 per cent in pensions. This, as per the commission’s calculations, will lead to an increase in the salary bill by about 0.65 per cent of GDP. First, there should be two corrections. One, the increase in the salary bill should be 0.63 per cent of GDP. Two, the increase in the estimated share of the PAP in total revenue expenditure should be 3.81 per cent, as against 4.25 per cent suggested in the commission’s report. These recommendations will benefit about 1.4 crore government employees with effect from January 2016 and are expected to have a significant impact on the overall macroeconomic parameters, such as the GDP, fiscal deficit, as well as inflation.

SALE OF 10 YRS NSC-IX ISSUE WILL BE DISCONTINUED FROM 20.12.15
