7th Pay Commission – NJCA
Writes to PM on 7th Pay Commission related issues and regarding NPS – He
reports that the central government employees are very much disappointed with
the recommendations of the 7th pay commission
Here is the excerpt of the
letter which Com. Shiva Gopal Mishra, Secretary/Staff side wrote to the Prime
Minister on the 14th of June 2016 regarding 7th Pay Commission recommendations.
‘With Great regret I bring
to your notice that the central government employees demands have no ears to
hear, hence we are forced to go on an indefinite strike from 11th July 2016.
Dear Sir, the central
government employees are very much disappointed with the recommendations of the
7th pay commission. We have written to you before too, and to the empowered
committee also. However we feel even after expressing our grievances, there is
no concrete action taking place.
Sir, The new pension scheme
is a curse on the employees. As far as employees are concerned, they are
worried that in future they may be deprived of their pension in total. They are
also worried that there is no guarantee of either family pension nor gratuity
as per 7th pay commission recommendations. The central government employees are
in fact very much annoyed and anxious with the 7th pay commission
recommendations.
There are about 11 lakh employees,
out of which around 5 lac employees are from railways, most of whom are
responsible for safety, and our demand is, their job should be non
transferable, for the safety reasons, since they know their area better.
Sir, we hope that you will
do the needful to release the stress through which the employees are going on
now.
Sir, we write to you in the
hope that you do the needful and accept our just demands.’
