Comrade KKN Kutty 1st Anniversary!
08.12.2023!
It was on this day last year that we have lost our leader
Comrade KKN Kutty. Started his trade union career in Chennai Income Tax Office
and associated in the activities of Confederation Tamil Nadu in the beginning
had rose to the apex level and started leading the entirety of Central
Government Employees and later the Pensioners movement in the country. I was in
a way close to him for the past 40 years and during the period of my tenures as
the Secretary of NFPE and later the Secretary General of NFPE, I had the
opportunity to move with him very closely. He was Secretary to Confederation
and Comrade S.K.Vyas was the Secretary General of Confederation at that time.
Slowly due to his work over the years he was an established leader and became
the Secretary General of Confederation and Comrade Vyas as the Chairman of the
Confederation. Associated with the JCM
National Council and the Standing Committee as the leader of Income Tax employees
and moved with NCCPA President Comrade Shiva Gopal Mishra (Staff Side
Secretary) and used to associate in all issues of all Departments and contributed
with Comrade Vyas in making the Pay Commission Memorandum also and submit it for
Staff Side to improve it.
His association with international working class movement was
also spectacular, He attended all meetings of WFTU and TUI(Public Services) as
well as later with the TUI(P&R) at Kathamandu (Nepal) and Bokota (Columbia).
I had the opportunity to go to Brazil (South Americal) to the meeting of TUI(Public
Services) along with him and attended with him both Kathmandu 1st Regional
Conference of TUI(P&R) and Bokota Pensioners World Conferences where
Comrade KKN Kuttu played his major role.
He used to be very friendly and sharp to all the problems of
all CG Departments and Pensioners. He was Socialistic in life and toiled with
class-consciousness for the class. We have lost a invaluable leader of our
movement. The Photo above depicts his photo along with me taken during our
voyage to Bokota World Congress of Pensioners and Retirees. It is not at all
possible to bridge the vacuum caused by his absence. Let us pledge to follow his
foot steps and work for the emancipation of our class. – KR SG NCCPA
