WELCOMING THE NEW CHAIRMAN

Dear Comrades and Friends,
 
WE WHOLE HEARTEDLY CONGRATULATE SHRI. S. RAMESH, THE PRESENT MEMBER (ADMN) UPON HIS ELEVATION AS THE CHAIRMAN OF CBIC.  HAVING BEEN DEALING WITH STAFF MATTERS FOR QUITE SOME TIME NOW, WE HOPE THAT DURING HIS TENURE AS CHAIRMAN, THE STAFF ISSUES PERTAINING TO CBIC WILL BE GIVEN TOP PRIORITY.
 
WE ALSO TAKE NOTE OF THE SITUATION WHERE PERFORMANCE BY CBIC IS BEING COMPARRED WITH THAT OF THE STATE GST.  IT IS PERTINENT TO REMEMBER HERE THAT SERIOUS STOCK TAKING OF THE MORALE OF THE STAFF OF THE DEPARTMENT IS THE URGENT NEED OF THE HOUR.  NEGLECT, DISPARITY AND DISCRIMINATIVE TREATMENT HAVE EATEN INTO THE ROOTS, THUS CREATING A HUGE TRUST DEFICIT.  WITH SUCH AN ESTRANGED CLIMATE WITHIN THE DEPARTMENT PERFORMANCE CANNOT REALLY IMPROVE.
 
WE HOWEVER FEEL THAT WITH THE NEW CHAIRMAN TAKING OVER THERE COULD BE CHANGES IN THE ATTITUDE OF THE BOARD TOWARDS THE STAFF ISSUES.
 
Various constituents of the COC during its meeting at Kolkatta had expressed a feeling that the present Chairman, CBIC is acting as if she is only the Chairman of the DR IRS.  The decision to conduct agitation programmes and express the displeasure of the cadres other than the DR IRS was taken accordingly. This sentiment was also expressed in the letter of the COC addressed to the Hon'ble FM and the Revenue Secretary.
 
Subsequently there have been some developments.
 
The Member (Admn) Shri. S. Ramesh who has been designated to be the new Chairman is understood to have taken a meeting with the officials of the Board on 07.06.2018 to discuss what issues in the COC Charter could be settled at the level of the Board and which have to be recommended to other departments.  The Officials of the Board and DGHRD have also called me for details on the charter of demands.
 
Subsequently, when the Member (Admn) visited Nagpur and met the COC local unit on 15.06.2018, he assured them that 'soon after he assumes charge of Chairman, he will be holding discussions with the stakeholders, and favourably consider all demands which can be settled at Board level, and initiate  necessary action in respect of the others.'  This has been communicated by Com. Rajiv Dalal, of Vidharba COC. 
 
Some of the constituents of the COC have also felt that in the above scenario, it is better to defer the DHARNA slated for 20.06.2018 to a later date so that time is given to the new Chairman to consider the demands.  Accordingly COC has deferred the Dharna as of now and are awaiting the meeting with the new Chairman after his assumption of office.
 
In the meanwhile it is also learnt that though the letter campaign from the members is continuing, the letters have not yet been forwarded through proper channels.
 
Hence all members and unit office bearers are requested to make the letter campaign a 100% success and see to it that they are forwarded through proper channels so that by the time we discuss the matter with the Board, the intensity of the feelings at the ground level get portrayed fully.
 
Fraternally yours,
R. Manimohan
SG,AIACEGEO &
Joint Convenor, COC of Associations in the CBIC

    As a member(admn) he failed deliver in vigilance issues, even met personally and explained. Even chairperson assured speedy disposal no improvement. Retired persons whose cases are pending in AD-V for orders from last 3years still pending. Hope assn will take up this.

    Chairmen may come and go but our fate continues as ever. Hoping for things to happen after the new chairman takes over is only wishful thinking. From his past track record it appears that nothing substantial may emerge. However let us hope against hope for already partial mitigation of our present condition.

    The first word in line 11 may be read as 'atleast' instead of the word 'already', which has crept in inadvertently.

Submissions on Pay Anomaly of Superintendents

Dear friends and Comrades, In the meeting convened by the CBEC under the chairmanship of Member (Admn), we have projected the pay anomaly pertaining to our cadre.  While we are yet to get back the parity with DySP of CBI, we have been further overtaken by the Superintendents of Posts and Section officers in the CSS. We have also pointed out how the 7th CPC erred in stating that the V CPC found no ground to have parity between our cadres and that of the CBI.  ANNEXURE-A CHART SHOWING HISTORIC PAY PARITY OF SUPERINTENDENT CE/ CUS. & ITO OF REVENUE DEPARTMENT WITH EQUIVALENT CG OFFICERS NAME OF THE POST PAY AFTER 3 RD CPC IN RS.
