UPDATE ON THE MEETING WITH CBEC CHAIRMAN ON 18.01.2011
Chairman, CBEC convened a meeting of the representatives of all the recognized association on 18.01.2011 at 4 PM. Member (P&V), DG (HRD), ADG (HRD) and other officials from HRD were present. The HRD made a presentation on the main points raised by associations and the response of the administration to it. The issues were categorized as those relating to cadre restructuring being considered favourably; not relating to cadre restructuring being considered favourably and relating to cadre restructuring but not being considered favourably. The major issues that have a bearing on our cadre and discussed in the meeting are the following.
1. Vacancies arising out of CR should be filled up by promotion – Accepted and also considers to extend it beyond one year.
2. Creation of separate service for promotion of Group B Executive officers – Under consideration independent of CR
3. Promotion of Group B gazetted executive officers directly to STS – Under formulation independent of CR
4. DR quota in Inspector cadre to be reduced – Under consideration independent of CR
5. Residency period for promotion from Inspector/PO/EO grade should be common to all three cadres – RR would be amended suitably.
6. All Inspectors who have completed more than 10 years of service should be promoted as Superintendent – To the extent possible allocation would be done to achieve this end.
7. In those zones where no new executive commissionerates have been sanctioned, the normative allocation of staff may render some staff surplus and hence the allocation of posts to audit ccmmissionerates in these zones should be over and above the existing strength – It would be ensured that no staff strength in any grade would be rendered surplus and efforts would be made to bring parity in the rate of promotion among zones.
8. Bringing the promotional level of Inspector/PO/EO on par and revising the ratio for promotion to AC level before CR – Matter sub judice and revision under active consideration/parity under examination separately.
The Chairman asked the associations to prefer representation if any before 27th of January so that Board can finalize their proposal and send it to IFU/Expenditure by mid February. Chairman also announced that an in situ scheme for promotion from Inspector to Superintendent and from Superintendent to AC is in the pipeline.

Dear Comrades
Please generously contribute to the cause of GP 5400 to ACP Inspectors. I myself along with another 12 members filed an OA in CAT Hyderabad with OA No.1051 in September,2010. So far the dept. has not filed its counter. Repeatedly adjournments are being taken by the Departmental Counsel. In spite of spending hefty amounts for this OA, I have contributed and today transferred an amount of Rs.1000/- into our AICEIA A/C.No. 800171737 INDIAN BANK, FAIRLIE PLACE, CALCUTTA, WEST BENGAL for the purpose of taking up the issue of Sri. M.Subramanyamm (Now Supdt) in Supreme Court of India. I request the entire fraternity to contribute similarly what ever the amount they can.

Firstly wish you and all a very happy, prosperous and successful new year 2011 for our Inspectors Association. Read your Circular 9/2010 as the subject of NFSG is discussed I would share the following few lines with you and our circle/branches.
I would thank you and Com. Arun for the proactive stand and support you have taken to present before Member (P&V) not to go on appeal against the High Court of Madras order WP 13225/2010. I was very impressed to receive even the Vakalat from Com. Arun for filing CAVEAT before the Supreme Court. Circles/Branches kindly note that only if we are filing CAVEAT with the Supreme Court the Court would not stay the favourable order we have obtained without obtaining our views/counter. So the Association has taken the right step in filing CAVEAT. But Circles/Branches should be aware of the cost of legal battle and that is why I have from appealing in the High Court itself repeating that beyond HighCourt stage I cannot proceed the fight on my own resources. As enquired with the counsels, it would take Rs. 50000- to pay the counsel for each time the case comes up before Supreme Court. I have received many mails as well as felicitations through the Association's blog and I could understand the members interest in fighting out the case to the end if the Department is not acceding to our request not to file appeal. Contribution from members itself would not be a problem and if properly presented we could very well mobilise the required fund. I myself would contribute Rs. 1000- for this cause to startwith and hope all our circles/branches would also contribute liberally to this cause. With atleast 5000 members in our fold a contribution of Rs. 100- to Rs. 200- per member would suffice to meet our requirement to fight out this case in Supreme Court.
