Many leading economists of our
country were of the views that India needs government employees more than the
existing with decent pay packages for effective governance and they were
expecting that the 7th CPC will recommend better pay prospects to central
government employees to ensure better governance. The 7th Central Pay Commission headed by
Justice Sh. A K Mathur submitted its report to the Finance Minister Sh. Arun
Jaitley on 19.11.2015. All sections of Indian
media started propagating it as a big bonanza for central government employees
and analyzing its effect on the Indian economy but in their analysis they
forgot to analyze the Commission's failure in granting justified pay scale,
better career prospects, addressing genuine grievances of the employees
etc. Despite many positive assurances by
the Commission in the meeting with AICEIA, the Commission did not address our genuine
demands. Thus, the All India Central
Excise Inspectors' Association marks this recommendation as DISAPPOINTING and
WORST RECOMMENDATIONS EVER.
Comrades, the Central Pay Commission failed to address
the genuine grievances of the our cadre but we should keep in our mind that
this recommendation of the 7th CPC is not final and it is subject to modification
based on the impact and objections and responses of both sides i.e. Central
Government and Staff Associations/Unions/Federations. So, it is high time and we should keep our
self ready for any type of Agitations/Strikes/Demonstrations etc. to address
the insensitiveness of the Commission towards our cadre and get justice from
the government.
In the backdrop of these events,
all the Branches/Circles of AICEIA are requested to be prepared for any type of
Agitations/Strikes/Demonstrations etc. on very short notice.
LONG LIVE UNITY,
LONG LIVE AICEIA.
Yours
fraternally,
Abhishek
