CHQ SAYS....

CHQ NEWS

It is understood that the new Secretary, Telecom  (Mr J S Deepak IAS)  who was keeping the file with him for more than ten days, has returned the file to Member (Services).  Immediately,  some people  started telling that  new Secretary wants to send it again to Department of Expenditure etc.  etc.

We did not flash such news without  any authority.

It is now reported that new Secretary wants Member(S) to discuss the details of the case.  It is quite  a routine  thing in the offices.  There is nothing new or  surprising in it.  Especially when  the Secretary is new. 

You can not expect an officer to sign a Cabinet Note without studying  it.
We have sought a meeting with the new Secretary, Telecom. 
We are making another efforts to meet Minister Mr Ananthakumar also.

78.2% IDR for Pension Revision
The final cabinet note is with the new Secretary, Telecom. Once Secretary clears the file, the note will be submitted to Minister of Communications and then to the Cabinet. All the points raised by the various Ministries have been addressed in the cabinet note. The cabinet note also addresses the issue of 'the arrangement' made between Government and BSNL as required under Sub Rule 22 of Rule 37A of CCS (Pension) Rules, 1972. However, the details of the new 'arrangement' proposed are not known.
The new Secretary Mr. J S Deepak IAS is not new to Telecom. He was Joint Secretary, Telecom five years back. He only wrote some letters to BSNL then on 60:40 issue involved in the Pension liability in Telecom. Hence, he must be aware of the background of the case. Our CHQ has addressed a letter to Shri Deepak requesting immediate clearance of the file. We are trying to have a meeting with the Secretary.

One extra Increment was granted to Grade III officials who did not get promotion to Grade IV. CCAs in seven Circles refused to count this extra increment as pay while fixing pension. Their plea was that with this extra increment the pay crossed maximum of the pay scale and hence it can not be taken as pay.
Kerala circle Unit of our Association and four members filed a case in CAT, Ernakulam. On 15-3-2012 the CAT gave a judgement and asked DoT to re-fix pension counting the extra increment even if the pay exceeded the maximum of pay scales. Four months time was given to implement their order.It was not honoured.
As directed by the Directorate of DoT, the Kerala CCA filed an appeal in High Court. In July 2015, the High Court dismissed the appeal. Even after seven months, the Court order is not honoured. Directorate has not given any instruction to CCA, Kerala despite repeated requests.
Almost four years have passed since the CAT judgement. Directorate is not responding to various communications on the case. Finding no alternative, our Association has filed a ‘contempt of Court’ petition against the DoT and CCA etc. The CAT, Ernakulam has registered the petition.
