16th March 2017 strike is inevitable.
February 19, 2017
Kalaivaraikalai
We are forced to go on a day's strike on 16thMarch 2017 due to the inaction of the Government. Seven months have lapsed still the committee has not submitted any report.
A group of ministers comprising Home Minister Shri.Raj Nath Singh, Finance Minister Shri. Arun Jaitley & Railway Minister Shri. Suresh
Prabhu called NJCA leaders on 30/06/2016 and assured that a high power
committee will be constituted to look into the matter regarding revision
of wages and fitment formula. Based
on the assurance, the JCM Constituent deferred the Strike action to
06th July 2016.Though our Federation appealed PJCA to continue the
strike as decided on July 11 2016, it was not considered in the larger
interest of Central Government employees unity.
As
assured a Committee was constituted under the chairmanship of Addl.
Secretary (Exp), Ministry of Finance and discussions held, the response
was very much disappointing. Against this we conducted a protest week
from 12th December to 19th December 2016 and submitted a
memorandum to our Honourable Prime Minister through state Governors as
well as in his office, there is no response till date.
Meanwhile, on 10.02.2017 NPS committee has called the JCM Staff Side for a second round of discussion, during the discussion they want to discuss only notified agenda, such as (1) scrapping of NPS (2) Guaranteed Minimum pension to NPS Pensioners ie; 50% of the last pay drawn should be guaranteed by the Government as minimum pension, even if the returns from annuity insurance scheme amount is less than 50%.
Unfortunately, the main demand of Exemption of Central Govt. Employees from the purview of NPS, was not included in the agenda.
With regard to GDS, our Federation and NUGDS warmly welcome the welfare measures which were recommended by Sri.Kamalesh Chandra committee. At the same time, our Federation strongly oppose the non‘Removal of 3 -A (I) of GDS Conduct & Engagement Rules, 2011.
Regarding Casual Labours, the revised wages and its arrears have not been paid in many Circles.
In view of the above, we cannot remain silent just conducting a protest week and Dharna. As we have to show a strong protest against the attitude of the Government, the FNPO affiliates decided to go on a day`s strike on March 16th, 2017.
We appeal all our colleagues to organise the one-day strike and make it a thundering success.
On 19/01/2017 A meeting was held with the Cabinet Secretary, Government of India, wherein Staff side secretary and the president were present.
The staff side explained Cabinet
secretary about various Issues of the Central Government Employees
pending at the Government level. The main issues were NPS, Minimum Wage
and Fitment Formula, Allowances, Pension and enhancing Benchmark from
good to Very Good. The Cabinet Secretary informed staff side that,
Pension issues have already been referred to the Cabinet, and the report
of the Committee on Allowances is likely to be submitted in the next
month. It is not certain whether there will be any revision in minimum
wage and Fitment formula & arrears of allowances from 01/01/2016.Meanwhile, on 10.02.2017 NPS committee has called the JCM Staff Side for a second round of discussion, during the discussion they want to discuss only notified agenda, such as (1) scrapping of NPS (2) Guaranteed Minimum pension to NPS Pensioners ie; 50% of the last pay drawn should be guaranteed by the Government as minimum pension, even if the returns from annuity insurance scheme amount is less than 50%.
Unfortunately, the main demand of Exemption of Central Govt. Employees from the purview of NPS, was not included in the agenda.

Allowances Committee may submit its report on Tomorrow.
February 19, 2017
Kalaivaraikalai
Federation Leaders associated with National Council JCM are keep telling
that Allowance Committee might submit its report on 20th February 2017.
The CG Staff are already very much upset over the Government’s
deliberate attempt to delay the payment of Allowances by constituting
many committees. Because the payment of revised Allowances is
considered will impact the Governments Exchequers.Lot of Committees
formed and Meetings held after the Notification issued for
implementation of 7th CPC Recommendations. But there is no any fruitful
outcome from these meetings. No sign of making decisions which satisfy
the Central government employees.
Had the Allowance like HRA is paid in revised rates from the date of
Notification ie 25th July 2016, it seems more beneficial than waiting
for the subcommittee reports. Because if revised allowances are not
given retrospective effect, it will be a huge loss for Central
Government Servants.Reports suggests that the Allowance Committee may
submit its report on 20th February 2017 and it will be notified with
effect from 1st April 2017. Federation sources told that It is
unacceptable and we will fight it out until the revised allowances
implemented with effect from 1.1.2016.
