Dear Comrades,
Be prepared for an immediate show down.
Compassionate appointments of dependents of the deceased employees are hanging fire for no apparent reason for the last one and half years despite the commitment, put in black and white in the Personnel Grievance Redressal Committee meeting held on 8.2.2013 that appointment orders in all the eligible cases would be issued before 31.3.2013. The ITEF is forced to believe that the CCIT(CCA), Kochi is reluctant to take a favourble decision on the matter and the orders are being withheld for no apparent or explicable reasons when sufficient vacancies are available in the cadres of TA and MTS and names of 10 eligible candidates were cleared by screening committees for compassionate appointments. This apart, the other decisions taken in the committee were not implemented despite the clear directions issued by the CBDT. The ITEF feel that the administration is no longer interested in settling the pending issues through dialogue in the forum constituted for the purpose.
In the wake of the fact that no solution is forthcoming with regard to the matters decided in the Personal Grievance Redressal Committee the ITEF find no other alternative than to embark on agitational path. The Authorities are requested to take a favourable decision immediately on the following issues.:
1] Immediate issue of orders in all pending compassionate cases.
2] Implementation of the decisions made in the Permanent Grievance Redressal Committee in a time bound manner.
3] Convene the meetings of the Permanent Grievance Redressal Committee as per the direction of the CBDT.
If the above genuine issues are not resolved immediately, the Secretariat has decided to embark upon agitation, including the following :
1. Boycotting all programmes of CCIT(CCA), Kochi from 01.5.2013
2. Staging demonstations during CCIT(CCA)’ visit in field stations from
01.5.2013 onwards.
3. Lunch hour demonstration in all offices on 02-05-2013.
4. Wearing of black badges on 06-05-2013.
5. One hour walkout on 08-05-2013 from 11.00 A.M to 12 Noon.
6. Dharna in front of CR Buildings, Kochi from 09-05-2013 onwards.
7. Half day walkout in the afternoon on 14-05-2013
The agitation shall be intensified from 15.4.2013 if the above demands are not met by that date.
A Circular in Malayalam language is attached herewith. The Branch Secretaries are requested to take copies of the same and circulate among the members, enlighten them and make the agitation a great success.
