For favour of publication please.
The National Joint Council of Action of Central Government Employees
organizations participating in the Joint Consultative Machinery i.e. the
workers and employees of the Railways, Defence, Postal and all other Central
Government departments, has decided to serve the strike notice for an
indefinite strike action commencing from 11thJuly, 2016 on 9th June,
2016. The strike notices will be served by all the Constituents
separately on their respective heads of the Departments on the stipulated date
of 9th June, 2016. The strike has become inevitable
due to the nugatory attitude of the Government over the charter of demands
submitted more than six months back and despite deferring the strike action
earlied decided to be organized in the month of April, 2016 at the instance of
the Government.
The 7th CPC
submitted its report to the Government on 19th November, 2015
even though the Commission had concluded their deliberations as early as in
Feb. 2015. The delay in the submission of the report itself was caused by
the unwarranted intervention of the Government. It is now more than six
months that the report is with the Government and the empowered committee set
up by the government had neither come to any conclusion thereon nor has it
caused any meaningful negotiation with the leaders of the Central Government
organizations so far Exasperated over this highly nugatory attitude of the
Government and the delay, the NJCA which met yesterday had to take this
decision to go on indefinite strike from 11th July, 2016
onwards. The list of demands on which the strike action is organized is
enclosed. We also enclose a copy of our communication, we have sent to
our constituents, which explains the circumstances and issues.
We shall be grateful if the Press
Statement is covered by your esteemed daily / Channel .
