Dated: 28th March, 2021.
Dear Comrade,
Kindly refer to the telephonic
conversation we had yesterday . As I
told you, we are getting frantic calls from our senior comrades over the non
payment of DR/DA and other covid related issues. They are apprehensive of the Government
further freezing the DA/DR and ultimately denying the payment of DA itself in
future Given the hollowness of the
assurances held out by the bureaucrats on many previous occasions,
we have reason to believe that the said apprehension is not totally
misplaced. They are of the opinion that
a united action programme, howsoever simple it is, must be organised by the
working employees and the pensioners together to highlight some of the pressing
issues. The National JCA which we had
formed in the wake of the 7th CPC
wage revision, will be the best suited platform for organising such an
action. Fairly almost all Federations of
CGEs have representation in that set up .
The Pensioners Associations in the country have all followed the
decision of the NJCA. In the
circumstances, it would be appropriate that you may convene a meeting of the NJCA
through any virtual platform so that consultation with all concerned could be
conducted and appropriate decisions taken.
I give hereunder some of the issues, which we might highlight for
immediate resolution for an all out settlement of the earlier charter of
demands appears to be a distant possibility.
1.
Payment of DA/DR to all employees and pensioners
with arrears; immediate issuance of the requisite orders.
2.
Implementation of the supreme court decisions
considering them as decision in ram
especially in the following cases:
(a)
Notional increment for those who have completed
one year piror to retirement I,.e. on 30th June and 31st
December.
(b)
To give effect to the MACP scheme from 1.1.2006,
which had already been done in the case of armed personnel;
(c)
Any other such decisions of the supreme court,
which have already been subjected to discussions at the Standing Committee.
3.
Include the Central Government employees in the
priority list of covid vaccination as they are required to discharge official
functions even during the period of lock out.
4.
Declare all CGHS dispensaries/Wellness centres,
Railways hospitals and dispensaries as vaccination centre where the Central
Government will provide the vaccines;
5.
Payment of compensation (not less than 10 lakhs)
to all those who died of covid. (The BSNL management has already taken such a
decision in the matter)
6.
Provide compassionate appointments to the wards
of all CG employees, who died since November, 2019 without adhering to the
illogical ceiling of 5%
7.
Evolve a health insurance scheme for all
employees and pensioners to cover up all pensioners, who are outside the ambit
of CGHS;
8.
Take steps to revive all PSUs which are either
closed down or privatised, which are capable of manufacturing vaccine in the
background of the acute shortage as also the oxygen units
9.
Provide full wages to all workers who are
engaged on daily rated basis even for the days they could not attend office due
to covid related reasons.
10.
Any other issues which the meeting might
consider important and required to be included
With greetings,
Yours fraternally,
