Comrades,
DELAY IN GRANT OF DA - HOLD PROTEST
DEMONSTRATION ON 23RD APRIL 2013
Since the implementation of the recommendations of the 4th central
pay commission in 1986, the Dearness Allowance (DA) is paid in two six-monthly
installments – in March and September of every year. The practice followed
since then is that the order granting DA to government employees is issued in
March and September itself.
This time the practice in force since 1986 is violated. Our enquiries with
concerned Ministries informed us that the file is already moved for Cabinet
approval. But it is nearly a month now. The cabinet has found no time to take a
decision on this.
This naturally is quiet disturbing, especially in the time of galloping price
line. The employees have, in the past, fought bitterly for grant of DA and the
3rd CPC gave a definite formula for DA in the aftermath of the one
day strike on 19th September 1968. We cannot allow the hard won DA
to be tampered with.
Confederation has written to Prime Minister conveying the disquiet amongst the
amongst the employees over the inordinate delay in the grant of additional
installment of DA due from 1st January 2013 and urging the Prime
Minister to take immediate steps to assuage the feelings of the employees. Copy
of the letter is given along with this Circular.
The Secretariat of Confederation therefore calls upon every affiliate as
well as State Committee of Confederation to organise lunch hour demonstration
in the work place on 23rd April 2013, Tuesday and send the following
telegram to the Prime Minister of India.
Text of
Telegram: EMPLOYEES AGITATED OVER DELAY IN GRANT OF DA, URGE TO EXPEDITE
ISSUANCE OF ORDERS.
Each affiliate and State Committee of Confederation may send a detailed report
on implementation of the programme in their organisation/state to the
Confederation CHQ.
With greetings
Yours fraternally

Dr Manmohan Singh,
Hon'ble Prime Minister of India
South Block,
New Delhi – 110001
Sir,
Subject: Grant of Dearness Allowance to Central Govt Employees and Officers –
Reg.
I am to invite your kind attention to the delay in the grant of additional
installment of Dearness Allowance to Central Government employees and officers
and the consternation it is causing amongst the employees.
It would be apt to point out here that since the implementation of the 4th
CPC recommendations with effect from 1st January 1986, the Dearness
Allowance is paid to Central Government employees in two six monthly
installments – along with the salary for March and September every year. The 5th
and 6th CPCs also recommended the same principle for payment of
additional installments of DA and since then the order granting additional
installment of Dearness Allowance is being issued well in advance honouring the
recommendations.
The Central Government Employees were expecting the announcement of grant of
additional installment of Dearness Allowance (8 % with effect from 1st
January 2013) and Office Memorandum on that in the month of March 2013 itself.
The delay of more than a month has led to disquiet amongst the employees.
I shall be thankful if the fears of the central government of employees are
allayed by immediately releasing the additional instalment of Dearness
Allowance with effect from 1st January 2013 without any further
delay.
Thanking you in anticipation,
Yours faithfully

News regarding CBEC Cadre Restructuring is that the file has
reportedly been approved by the Finance
Minister last week, and now it shall take the route through the DoP&T and the Committee of Secretaries, besides the Group ofMinisters before it is placed before the Union Cabinet for final
approval. Last week’s development is a
significant step in the right direction, but is no reason for us to be
complacent. We have to continue to raise our collective voice till our just
demands for removal of intra-cadre and
inter-cadre disparities is not removed , and fair opportunities for career
advancements are not made available to us. The scene unfolding in the next few weeks will undoubtedly have far reaching ramifictions on careers of every s ingle employee under the CBEC.
A report on the holding of demonstration on 23.04.13 may please be e- mailed to me at ajitkgbhilai@gmail.com by
concerned Circle/ Branch/ Unit Secretaries. Needless to say, All India office
bearers of the AICEIA should co-ordinate organizing of the demonstrations in their respective
stations and states/regions.
Yours fraternally,
Ajit Kumar K G
Secretary General
