Bhopal, dated 2/07/10

Dear friends,

I am sure that you might be visiting the Association web site www.aiamshq.blogspot.com regularly. Our web site can be opened through Google search also. Association is posting letters and other documents regularly in the web site since its launching in the month of April 2010.
Letter to the Hon’ble Prime Minister
We had sent a letter to the Hon’ble Prime Minister to consider the merger of the post of LD& UDC and granting of 2800/ grade to the merged post, copy of the same is posted in the web site. In reply we have received a letter from the Prime Minister Office according to which our representation has been forwarded to the DoPT for appropriate action (copy enclosed).

Upgradation of OS posts to 4800/ grade pay
You are aware that Association had written a letter to the Secretary in his name, demanding the upgradation of the post of Office Superintendent to the pre-revised scale of Rs. 7500-12000 i.e. Rs. 4800 grade pay, in the year 2009 and accordingly Ministry had circulated a proposal inviting cadre re-structuring of the Ministerial Staff wherein it was clearly stated that the post of Office Superintendent in the NSSO office will be renamed as SO with Rs. 4800 grade pay. But the re-structuring of the Ministerial posts has not taken place as yet. Meanwhile, it has come to our notice that now the Ministry is considering 4600/ grade pay to the re-named post of OS. General Secretary immediately visited the Department and discussed the matter with the then Director Shri Sudhir Shrivastav, who had called the then Under Secretary in his chamber and advised her to keep Rs. 4800 grade pay for the re-named post of Office Superintendent as the post of Office Superintendent in NSSO Offices especially the Regional/DPC Offices of the NSSO, carries greater responsibility having complete charge of administrative and accounts sections and as such this post deserves Rs. 4800/ grade pay, he said.

Meanwhile, DPD has put up a proposal for upgradation of the post of Office Superintendent with 4800/ grade pay. But a final picture regarding granting of grade pay to the upgraded posts has not yet emerged. On this subject we had written another letter to the Secretary in his name recently (a copy of the same is placed in the web site-enclosed). As per 6th Pay Commission recommendation, an official who is placed in a post in the Pay Band with Grade of Pay Rs.4800/- will automatically get Grade Pay of Rs.5400 after completion of 3 year service. This will benefit the juniors.

Seniority of LDC &Considering combined UDC for the promotion of Assistant
Association has written a letter to the FOD & DPD to consider the combined seniority of UDC & LDC for promotion to the post of Assistant, a copy of the same is posted in the web site.
Filling up of the post of Assistant & LDC in FOD offices
Letter for filling up of all vacant post of Assistant and LDC has been sent to the FOD. More than 20 posts of Assistant are lying vacant in various FOD Offices and the Association demanded to fill up these posts by relaxing the recruitment of rule of the Assistant as a one time measure. Similarly around 70 vacancies of LDCs are there, copy of the letter sent is posted in the web site. Similar letter is being written to the DPD Hqrs for filling up of the vacant posts of Assistant etc by relaxation of recruitment rules.

Filling up of Vacancy of Ministerial posts in DPD/SDRD.
This Association has been receiving letters from the offices of the DPD for getting the vacant post of Ministerial staff in DPD Offices filled up. Letter in this connection is being written to the ADG DPD for immediate filling up of the vacancies of Ministerial posts in DPD & SDRD.

Demand for change of the name of the Association to accommodate the post with 4200 G.P.
The Assistant with 4200 grade pay in NSSO Offices has been declared group B and accordingly the MoS&PI had asked us to amend the constitution for fresh recognition. Since the Assistant is an integral part of the Ministerial Staff and in order to keep the Assistants in the Association fold, we had changed the Association’s name as All India Association of Ministerial Staff (Non Gazetted) and a proposal sent to the Ministry for recognition. But the Ministry has not accepted the new Constitution. Now we had written a letter to the Director (JCA), DoPT vide letter dated 10/6/10(Copy is posted in the web site-enclosed). All the Ministries of the Government of India have been allowed to keep the 4200, 4600 grade pay categories in the Association fold and as such we are sure that the DoPT will allow us to keep the Ministerial posts with 4200 in the Association fold.

Deduction of annual subscription from the pay roll.
The annual individual subscription of the members of the Association is to be deducted from the salary for the month of July 2010. All Unit Secretaries are requested to ensure the deduction of the subscription in the month of July itself. As has already been informed, the Ministerial Posts/Hindi translators who are in 4200 grade pay are still the members of the Association. Unit Secretaries have to ensure the deduction of subscription of the Assistant/Junior Translators as well.
A letter in connection with the deduction of yearly subscription addressed to the Head of the Office/DDO is enclosed, which may please be handed over to the HO/DDO in your office.
Yours sincerely

(TKR Pillai)
General Secretary

  1. Merger of LDC and UDC post is a very good initiative at present scenerio. The post of UDC Cashier is very responsible and higly risky so after merger the post of LDC and UDC cashier should be upgraded and cashier work must be done by Assistant.

  2. I think it is the best idea of merging LDC and UDC in 2800 Gr. Pay.
