Cabinet Approves Restructuring

Posted on May 23, 2013 by admin

 

Dear Comrades,

The Union Cabinet today approved cadre restructuring in Income Tax Department. The press note issued by Press Information Bureau is reproduced here under:

Restructuring of the Income Tax Department
The Union Cabinet today approved the proposal for creation of 20,751 additional posts in the Income Tax Department in various cadres that is 1349 additional posts in the IRS cadre and 19,402 additional posts in the non-IRS cadres. This will help the Income Tax Department collect increased revenue and provide better tax payers services.

An additional expenditure of Rs. 449.71 crore per annum is likely to be incurred on creation of additional posts and upgradation of some existing posts. This additional expenditure would be more than compensated by the increased revenue of more than Rs. 25,000 crore per annum proposed to be generated as a result of this exercise.

Fraternally yours

AGITATION STANDS DEFERRED TILL 31.05.2013

Posted on May 8, 2013 by admin

Dear Comrades,

The CCIT(CCA), Kochi called the representatives of ITEF  for a discussion in the wake of the ongoing agitation against inordinate delay in issuing orders of appointment  on compassionate grounds to the dependents of the employees died while in service.

The meeting was attended by Com. K. Babu Thomas (President), Com. K S Sajeev (Genl. Secretary), Com. Narayan Hari (Acting General Secretary) and Com. M R Sabu (Asst. Secretary  and Shri Om Prasad U Menon, Asstt. Commissioner (HQ) from official side besides the CCIT.  The discussion was fruitful.  The CCIT (CCA) informed that two cases has already been done and another one case is being approved.  The CCIT also informed the representatives that there was no conscious delay on the part of the Administration in approving the compassionate appointments and whatever delay that had occured was due to pressing administrative exigencies   The ITEF representatives informed the CCIT that the general perception is on the contrary and the employees of the department believes that the CCIT is reluctant to issue orders in this regard.  To this, the CCIT replied that had there been any reluctance on his part, he would not have issued orders in two cases as has already been done.   He also informed the Federation that the rest of the cases are under process and these cases would definitely be decided upon in this month itself.  On the assurance of the CCIT, the ITEF representatives informed that the agitational programmes announced by ITEF would be kept in abeyance during the month to facilitate a cordial and conducive atmosphere to solve the issue.

In the wake of the above discussion, the agitational programmes announced stands suspended upto 31.5.2013.

The Secretariat  congratulate all the members for diligently participating in all the agitational programmes.

With greetings,

Fraternally yours,

K S Sajeev,

General Secretary.

8.5.2013.

06-05-2013 TO BE OBSERVED AS BLACK BADGE DAY

Posted on May 4, 2013 by admin

Dear comrades,

The impasse over the delay in issuing compassionate appointment orders continues even after the ITEF announced a series of agitational programmes. No meaningful dialogue has occurred between the administration and the Federation since the commencement of agitation. Till date order have been issued only in one case. Under the circumstance the ITEF would go ahead with the pre-announced agitational programmes and would explore the possibility of intensifying the agitation if need be.

As a mark of protest against the insensitive and callous attitude of the CCIT towards the dependents of the deceased colleagues, all the ITEF members are requested to wear black badges to work on 06-05-2013. This will be followed by one hour walk out on 07-05-2013 from 11.00 AM.

On 09-05-2013, a 09.00AM to 05.30PM dharna is being organized in front of the CR buildings, Kochi to drive sense into the administrators and make them see light. All the Secretariat members, Branch Presidents and Secretaries are requested to be present at CR buildings on that day at 08.30 AM sharp. The Branch Secretaries may also bring along with them any member interested in participating in the dharna. The participants should proceed to Kochi only after submitting leave applications with their respective Heads of Office.

Yours fraternally

Agitational programme from 1st May, 2013 on local issues

Posted on April 26, 2013 by admin

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.

                                                   K Babu Thomas            &                   K S Sajeev

                                                 President, ITEF, Kerala          General Secretary, ITEF, Kerala.
