New Delhi
Dear Sir,
Sub: Functioning of Joint Consultative Machinery
Since assuming charge of Secretary(Staff Side), National Council(JCM), I
have repeatedly demanded to convene a meeting of the National
Council(JCM). It is, however, regretful to point out that, despite all
out efforts made by me and requesting you in person to hold the meeting,
no meeting of the NC/JCM has been convened till date.
It may be appreciated the Joint Consultative Machinery(JCM) at the
National level, conceived as an effective Negotiating Forum, has
virtually become defunct as no meeting of this forum has been held
during the last four years, with the result that, a number of major
grievances of the Central Government employees continue to remain
unresolved, because of which they are badly agitated.
The procrastinated discussions in the National Anomaly Committee did not
proceed to settle any tangible anomaly item. Even after reaching
agreement, the government has refused to issue orders on some issues.
This apart, the demands raised by the Staff Side for grant of Interim
Relief and Merger of DA with Pay have been refused by the government.
One of the vital segments of the Central Government Employees, i.e.
Grameen Dak Sewaks of the Postal Department, are kept outside the ambit
of the 7th CPC. Unilateral decisions were taken to induct FDI in the
Railways, Privatize the Railway and Defence Production Units; closure of
the Printing Presses, Publication and Stationery Departments;
contractorise the medical store functions; corporatize the Postal
Organization and outsource various governmental functions.
Under these circumstances, all the constituents of the National
Council(JCM)(Staff Side) had to hold a “National Convention” on 11th
December, 2014 in New Delhi, wherein after detailed deliberations and
taking stock of the situation, a detailed programme of struggle has been
chalked-out. In case there is no positive response from the Official
Side, it will ultimately lead to indefinite strike.
A copy of the Declaration of the above-mentioned Convention is enclosed
herewith, which is selfexplanatory. We do fervently hope that
negotiation is possible even at this late stage and would therefore urge
upon you to take concrete steps in that direction. We also hope that
you will be able to appreciate that any decision of the government which
affects the job security of the employees adversely need to be
discussed and agreement reached at the JCM Forum.
I would, therefore, request you to personally intervene in the matter,
being the Chairman of the National Council(JCM), so as to avoid serious
unrest and disturbance to industrial peace in the Central Government
Services and hold discussions with the Staff Side, NC/JCM on these vital
issues at your earliest.
