UPDATE ON THE MEETING OF AICEIA WITH CBEC CHAIRMAN ON 05.04.2011

It was an eventful day for us in the Capital today. The first important assignment was that we met the Chairman, CBEC and handed over copies of earlier representations submitted earlier regarding the AICEIA’s views on the in-situ promotion proposals presently under consideration of the Board; the procedure to be followed for conducting DPC’s for promotion from Inspector to Superintendent, especially in the wake of DOP&T’s OM dated 11.03.2011 on this subject; and our demand to lift the ban on ICT’s similar to the one being followed in CBDT. All these issues were discussed at length with the Chairman, and it was conveyed to him that so many matters including these were not being resolved despite repeated representations by us, and if the Department fails to redress our grievances, we have no option but to resort to a programme of agitation very soon in a coordinated manner with all other Associations of Central Excise and Customs. The Chairman informed us that all these matters are being actively worked upon in the Board, and that he is in regular contact with all wings and agencies concerned, both within and outside the Board, especially those involved in the cadre-restrucuring exercise, and outstanding issues are expected to be adequately addressed very soon. He carefully went through our representations and immediately called for action-taken / current status reports on the same from the concerned Board Officials.
Thereafter, we called on the Member (P&V) and impressed upon her too the anguish of the Association on the interminable delays that are being encountered in the resolution of the acute problems being faced by the cadre, and that the members are running out of patience and that we are forced to embark on a programme of agitation with all other Associations of Groups B and C personnel of Excise and Customs. The Member’s attention was invited to all the long-pending demands of the Association, and the divergent practices being followed in different zones in conducting DPC’s for promotion from Inspector to Superintendent. It was assured by her that she will be taking up these matters on priority.

Following this the meeting of the Anomalies Committee of the Department of Revenue chaired by the Special Secretary (Revenue) was held, in which we along with representatives of all recognised Staff Federations / Associations under the CBDT/CBEC/Deptt. of Economic Affairs/ Deptt. of Expenditure participated . Nothing much to write home about this meeting, since it was ruled that most of the points sponsored by the participants from the Staff side, though having considerable merit, could not be deliberated upon since they, being beyond the scope of “Anomaly” as defined for the purpose by DOPT, lay outside the purview of the Committee. The one silver lining, however, was that the Chairman of the Committee, Shri K. Jose Cyriac Special Secretary (Revenue), conceded the insistent demand of the Staff side, espoused very forcefully especially by the Secretary General of the Confederation of Central Government Employees and Workers Com. K K N Kutty, that the long-defunct Departmental Council be revived. It was assured by the official side that within the next three months a meeting of Departmental Council would be convened. This is a significant step forward, and would provide an effective institutionalised mechanism to highlight our problems and demands.
Then we continued with the ongoing process of persuasion with various sections of the Board dealing with the different administrative/ establishment/pay-related issues concerning our cadre. To summarise the information that we could collect from the concerned quarters :- in the matter relating to stepping up of pay of a senior drawing pay less than a junior DR Inspector or promotee Inspector promoted after 1.1.2006 but before 1.1.2008 who has opted for revised pay structure, some definite progress is there, and a draft clarification on the lines of that issued by CBDT has been prepared and the same is expected to be issued soon; the grant of MACP to promotee Inspectors without counting promotion from UDC to TA , as also in the related issue of Inspectors promoted from the cadre of stenographers, the matter is moving in a positive direction, albeit slowly. We have earnestly requested the concerned officials to speed up the matter. It was also learnt that on the ICT issue, the Board is favourably disposed towards the demand for lifting the ban, and the relevant file is moving fast.
The final event of the day was a meeting in the evening at the Central Revenue Building in New Delhi participated by the All India leadership of almost all the Associations of Central Excise and Customs of this country, which perhaps, this Department has never witnessed earlier. For two hours all the burning issues were discussed and analysed by the representatives of the Superintendents, Inspectors, Ministerial Officers, and the Group C Executives of Central Excise, and the Group C Executive and Ministerial Officers of Customs. A consensus was finally arrived at that a common phased programme of agitation would be announced very shortly which would begin with Dharna at Jantar Mantar, New Delhi by representatives of all the said Associations (tentatively on 20th April 2011) and simultaneous lunch-hour protest demonstrations at all Hqrs offices on that day. This is intended to coincide with and show our solidarity with the protest programme called for on that day by the Confederation of Central Government Employees and Workers, which includes such demands as raising the rate of interst on GPF deposits, and scrapping of the highly anti-employee PERFDA. It was broadly agreed upon that all agitational programmes would be called identically by all the concerned Associations, with each Association having their own independent Charters of Demands. Also agreed upon was that each constituent Association would insist that the Board/Ministry hold discussions jointly with all recognized Associations concerned.

THE ISSUE OF PAY PARITY WITH CBI INSPECTORS WAS RAISED BY

SHRI RAMA CHANDRA KHUNTIA, HON'BLE MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT PRESENTED ON 24^th MARCH 2011 IN RAJYA SABHA DURING A DEBATE ON FINANCE BILL 2011.

Sir, I would like to mention one thing here about the system of Customs. In the Department of Customs and Excise, the inspectors are very important. They are collecting the money. As I am informed, the Customs inspectors were getting their salaries and allowances on par with the CBI inspectors and other inspectors. Their salaries and allowances were reduced in the Fourth and the Fifth Pay Commissions. Now, in the Sixth Pay Commission, considering their plight, the Government has been very kind enough to bring them on parity; but, they have to get their notional promotions from 1996. They are very much in an aggrieved situation. They are very unhappy. The hon. Finance Minister should consider their case for giving them the notional promotion as it has been given to all other 16 services in this country.

HRD is silent on senior Inspectors

Dear Comrades
 I would like to highlight some of the points on HRD letter.

1.HRD letter is silent on the Inspectors who have completed more than 20 years.

2.What about the Inspectors who have completed more than 17 years and may not have 3 years of service as supdt on completion 20 years.

3.The schemes of  in situ promotions and MACP may not run concurrently. In such a case if an Inspector has completed 19 years and got in situ supdt, will have to wait for his AC promotion till 22 years or so. Here he is loser as he is not going to get his MACP at 20 years.

Therefore, I suggest that like in IRS DC is getting JC and within a short period of 3 months or so again ADC if he has completed the requisite service for ADC, we also should be given AC or DC basing on base cadre seniority, with a gap of not more than three months.  Otherwise, the Inspectors who have completed more than 17 years of service will be at loss.
