COMPARISON OF PAY DETERMINATION BEFORE AND AFTER 7TH PAY COMMISSION

The Shocking fact of Pay hike recommended by 7th Pay Commission

The Pay hike recommended by 7th Pay Commssion has been discribed as Bonanza by Media

• Pay commission said 14.29 % Hike in Pay is recommended, Media said central government employees will get 23.55% hike in salary including allowances.
• we will find out the real fact about the so called Bonanza..!
• whether the Media claims are true or not through a simple calculation…!

The strength of Group C employees in Central Government is 85%. So we must know what the Pay Hike is recommended for them actually.

AIAPC has submitted Memorandum for proper upgradation of pay for different tiers of Postmaster Cadre to Shri Ravi Shankar Prasad , the Hon’ble Minister of Communication & IT

FROM 02.12.2015, ONLY UPTO 10 YERS AGE GIRL CAN OPEN SSA ACCOUNTS

AIAPC has written to the D G Posts requesting to take up the matter of upgradation of pay of Postmaster Gr-I, II , III and Sr Postmaster

APPEAL AND PARA WISE REPLY TO THE AGGRIVED PM-II OFFICIAL SHRI.M.MUTHUKRISHNAN

Sir,

 Sub:  Postmaster Cadre-Disappointing and Retrograde Recommendations of 7th CPC-reg     

 Ref:   7th CPC report submitted to Govt.of India on 19th instant

    It is brought to the notice of all our Postmaster Friends, that all of us feel shocked and ashamed of our Postmaster Cadre and get frustrated with 7th CPC report for not giving due recognition to front runners(Postmasters) of the Postal Department.

As far as our PM cadre is concerned,the following points are put forward for deep analysis and also for self appraisal of our own cadre at present to march in a right direction.

1. It is pathetic to note that, Either Our Department or 7th CPC has recognized the dignity of our PM Cadre and not given hike in Pay& Allowances of Postmasters, an important Cadre in Department of Posts.

2. We have requested to permit our Cadre staff to sit for LDCE of Postal Service Group "B" but permitted only for LDCE for Senior PostMaster.

3. It is quite unfortunate to witness that, the variation in Pay Scale between LSG/PM Grade I and an IP is going on increasing from 5th CPC to 7th CPC though both scales were identical in earlier 4th CPC.

4. The Yard- Stick for conducting both  IP exam and PM Grade I exam are not different (  almost the same) but  step mother treatment is given to PM cadre staff in granting identical Pay Scale.  Why this difference in Pay and Allowances to our Cadre Employees?  Where we have to go for making an appeal for this disparity?

5. 7th CPC report recommend higher Grade Pay to Employees belonging to IP cadre as detailed below. There are some ambiguity in Pay scales.

  

     Inspector-Post :                Rs.4600/ ( from the present GP of Rs.4200/)

     Assistant Superintendent:  Rs.4800/ ( from the present GP of Rs.4600/)

     Superintendent (Posts) :    Rs.5400/ ( from the present GP of Rs.4800/)

    Here the new status of GP of Class "A" Officers ( SSPOs, etc) is not known. whether the present GP Rs.5400/ will continue or not?. Similarly the Post of Senior Postmaster comes under classification of Group "B" Gazetted category and what is the new Grade Pay of this Senior Postmaster Cadre? whether Rs.5400/ or the existing GP of Rs.4800/. There is no clear demarcation to this effect in the 7th CPC report.

6. The only Recommendation of permitting our Cadre Officers to Senior PM examination is not a great boon for us, since the promotional chances in PM cadre is remote for want of vacancies or no of Posts. (PM GradeI-2097,GrII-511,GradeIII-495 & Senior PM -116)

7. Postmaster cadre Officers are treated equally on par with general line Officials and not duly recognized or not given importance at all levels. So PM Cadre is surely a Dying cadre and may be disposed off and all Postmasters may be reverted back to their original seniority in General line.

8. Hence it is our prime duty now to focus our issue at appropriate level for up gradation of Pay, since no other Postal trade union will raise voice for us.

9. If status quo is maintained even after repeated requests and interviews at suitable level, it will be better to submit mass declination letters to our supreme authority to wind up this victimized cadre.

10. Our All India Association ( AIAPC) is requested to take necessary steps on war footing basis to over come these injustice at appropriate level ( Parliamentary Committee etc.)

11.Otherwise there is no other way for our Association, except to struggle and fight legally to get the Identical scale of Pay for PM Grade I with an IP. 

                                                        AIAPC Zindabad.     

                    

 With Thanks and regards,

Dear Shri.M.Muthukrishnan ji,

                    First of all AIAPC-TN is sincerely thanking you since you are one among the sincere follower of the AIAPC and you attended almost all the meetings of AIAPC-TN. We could accept your entire dissatisfaction and to clarify your paras is one of the primary duty of us. Your para wise reply is as follows...

Goodbye, Wi-Fi! Li-Fi Just Got Tested And It's 100 Times Faster!

Things are going to get very interesting in the coming months. The way we access internet can completely change forever. Well, that's what scientists are telling us anyway. Remember this word - 'Li-Fi'; it's going to be used very often soon enough. What is it you ask? Li-Fi is a wireless technology that transmits high-speed (insanely high-speed) data using visible light communication, or VLC. So imagine switching on a bulb in your room, and it'll not only be a source of light, but will also transmit wireless internet to your phones and other devices. Madness, I tell you.   

Requesting Hon'ble CPMG-TN to give informal meetings.

Dear Postmaster Cadre officials,

                   The Honorable CPMG- Tamilnadu circle is requested to fix an appointment to discuss the grievances, and to give informal meetings along with recognized unions. Copy of the request letter is produced below

DEEP CONDOLENCES

Irrecoverable loss to the Team-AIAPC

APPEAL FROM AGGRIEVED POSTMASTER GRADE OFFICIAL SHRI.C.VIGNESH

Sir,

     I have been appointed as PA on 28.07.2007. I joined as PM Grade I on 01.04.2015. Now, according to new Pay Matrix, my new Basic Pay is Rs.34900/-. The PA appointed along with me without getting promotion is fixed with new Pay Rs. 33300/. See, if that PA gets one increment his new basic will be automatically equal to PM Gr I pay. So, the difference between a PA's pay and PM Gr. I, is just one increment. Is it justifiable?.

     As per 6th CPC, Grade Pay difference Rs. 400/- and two increments difference in Basic Pay. Further, there is no differentiation between PA and PM Gr. I now.

    There is no MACP, no promotion for us for Gr II and will be late until 10  years, that means next pay commission will come. We were totally downtrodden by 7th CPC. Please take immediate steps in All India Level.

    Grade Pay was increased to IP Cadre gives much much distinction between Gr I and IP, Please take immediate steps in All India Level.

C. VIGNESH,

POSTMASTER GRADE I

PULIYANGUDI-627855.

Dear Shri.C.Vignesh

TERMS OF REFERENCE ABOUT NPS BY THE 7TH PAY COMMISSION RECOMMENDATIONS

Introduction 

10.3.1 Pension has been one of the key Terms of Reference (TORs) for successive Pay Commissions. While the VI CPC was the first Pay Commission to have been constituted after the introduction of the National Pension System (NPS) which came into effect on 01.01.2004, the VII CPC is the first one to be constituted after some experience has been gained on this count.

Pension Related TOR of the Commission

10.3.2 The TOR of the present Commission - to examine the principles which should govern the structure of pension and other retirement benefits, keeping in view that retirement benefits of all Central Government employees appointed on and after 01.01.2004 are covered by the National Pension System (NPS)–limits the mandate of this Commission only to the Old Pension System (OPS). However, during its interaction with staff associations and other stakeholders, the Commission received many grievances/suggestions relating to both the OPS and the NPS. It has also been averred, inter alia, that NPS is proving to be an impediment in attracting and subsequently retaining the best talent for the Central Civil Services/All India Services (AIS). In this backdrop, the Commission decided to address the grievances related to NPS, which have been discussed in this chapter. Issues relating to OPS and other retirement benefits have been dealt in Chapter 10.1 and Chapter 10.2.
