CONFEDERATION
NATIONAL SECRETARIAT CALLS UPON ALL CENTRAL GOVERNMENT
EMPLOYEES
Observe
6th March 2017
as
BLACK
DAY
v Against
the betrayal of Central Government employees and pensioners by Group of
Ministers of NDA Government.
v Demanding
increase in minimum pay and fitment formula.
Dear
comrades
We know that all of you are in the midst of hectic preparation and campaign for
making the 16thMarch Strike action a great success. As has been
explained in the article, which we have placed on our website, the NDA
Government, led by BJP has exhibited the worst anti-employee attitude in the
post independent era of our country. This Government has treated its own
employees as its worst enemy. The decision taken by the Union Cabinet on
29th June, 2016 rejecting even the recommendations made by the high
level committee chaired by the Cabinet Secretary was unprecedented. Even the
setting up of various committees was nothing but an eye wash. Nothing will come
out of that. Even the NPS Committee on which the young comrades had pinned some
hope of at least getting a minimum guaranteed pension will produce nothing.
The discussions at the JCM fora has been converted into mostly monologues i.e.
the official side simply listening and not reacting. The Government, it
appears, has made the Pension department to reject the one and only
recommendation of the 7th CPC which was considered to be positive
i.e. Option No.1 for pensioners on the specious ground that the same is not
feasible to be implemented. The allowances committee has dilly dallied its
deliberation and would now submit its report after the extended period of 6
months expires on 22.02.2017. Even if they make any positive recommendation,
which is seldom expected, the NDA Government would not act upon it. They have
very successfully postponed the payment of the revised allowanced for 15
months.
In the face of such terrible onslaught, betrayal and chicanery, which no
Government in the past has every indulged in, it is surprising that some of our
friends who has a predominant role in the movement of the Central Government
employees has unfortunately chosen to wait and watch. It appears that they have
chosen to wait endlessly hurting the cause of the workers.
We have no hesitation to affirmatively state the obvious that we have chosen the
right path, the path of struggles, which can only the choice of the working
class against tyrannical attitude of the employer, howsoever, powerful they may
be. We must realize that those who are in the saddle of power today are not
permanently posted there. We were witness to the abysmal downfall of persons who
were arrogant personified. It appears that the reasonableness, righteousness
and patience we had exhibited have been taken as signs of cowardice. The
undeniable fact is that those who fight, only can win. We, therefore, appeal to
you to carry on with conviction and courage.
Eight months will be over on 6th March, 2017, when the Group of
Ministers held out the assurance of revisiting the minimum wage and
multiplication factor. It is now crystal clear that that was an act of
chicanery. No committee was set up and no discussions were held to seriously
consider the issue. We, therefore, appeal to all of you to ensure that the day,
i.e. 6thMarch, 2017 is observed as a day of betrayal and all our
members are requested to wear a Black badge with the following words inscribed
on it in bold letters and conduct demonstrations in front of all Central
Government offices.
