Seventh Pay Commission to submit report on November 19 (Today 19.30 Hrs.)
“Once every ten years, the salaries and perks of Central Government employees are completely revised. The previous revision was implemented on 01.01.2006. The new set of salaries and benefits will come into effect from 01.01.2016 onwards.”
The 7th Pay Commission, under the chairmanship of Justice A.K.Mathur, will submit its 900-page report to the centre tomorrow at 19.30 Hrs.
A review of the 7th Central Pay Commission :-
25.09.2013 – P. Chidambaram, the then Minister of Finance, made headlines when he announced the proposal to constitute the 7th Pay Commission.
04.02.2014 – The then Prime Minister, Manmohan Singh gave approval for constituting the 7th Pay Commission. Under the chairmanship of Justice A.K.Mathur, a four-member Pay Commission committee was formed (1. Justice Ashok Kumar Mathur, Chairman; 2. Vivek Rae, Member; 3. Dr. Rathin Roy, Member; and 4. Mrs. Meena Agarwal, Secretary).
28.02.2014 – The Terms of Reference were issued to the Pay Commission, with the approval of the cabinet.
The Pay Commission was given 18 months time to complete its work. This time around, the commission managed to effectively complete its task, almost on time.
The Pay Commission visited various places in the country to personally inspect the work conditions and gather feedback from the workers associations and representatives.
Opinions were invited from all, and not just the NC JCM Staff Side, Confederations and major employees unions and associations.
The Pay Commission hosted its own website where it regularly updated its progress.
In a section called “Questionnaire,” the commission asked questions to the visitors and gathered online feedback from them.
24.06.2014 – the NC JCM Staff Side presented a Memorandum to the Pay Commission, containing the suggestions and proposed pay structure of nearly 45 lakh employees and also such demands for 50 lakh pensioners.
25.06.2015 – The Pay Commission made an important announcement on its website. It said that task on the report will end very soon and it will be submitted to the government on time.
The report, which was supposed to be submitted in August, was delayed when the Pay Commission, on 27.08.2015, asked for an extension of four months to complete its report.
The OROP protests and Bihar polls are believed to be the reasons for submitting the report much ahead of December. Initially, the Pay Commission was expected to submit its report on November 20 or 23. But, PTI announced yesterday that the report will be submitted on November 19.
And Today the official website of 7th CPC also published the date and time of submission of its report to the Central Government.
Experts and various sources expect 15 to 20 percent hike in the salaries. But, none has explained the basis on which the numbers were arrived at.
The employees are not just curious about the salary hikes. They are interested in other aspects, including Promotions, Retirement Age, DA merger, Increment, Grade Pay, HRA, Bonus, LTC, and the removal of certain pay anomalies of the 6th Pay Commission are some of the expectations.
This will be the first pay commission to be granted under the BJP led NDA Govt. If the govt doesn't do justice then its time to change the government. So far with concern to pay commissions the Congress govts have proved to be pretty good.
ReplyDeleteThe central government wants the employees to work like private employees, starting biometric attendance system, keeping weekly hour counts. But does not pay them like the people in private organisations are paid.
DeleteThey are giving group A officers so much hike and group C and D barely 23%, whereas they are the most needy ones. The C and D group employees are the ones that suffer the most because of inactivity and inability to make decisions by Group A. The officials of Group A , in autonomous bodies, create more and more posts for their cadre while not working on DPC and MACP files of cadres below them, the ones who actually need the monetary benefits, the actual work force. They have, in autonomous bodies , kept employees posted as ad-hoc for almost 10 years, and did not regularize their post, thus affecting their promotion and salaries, and in turn, their family and their basic necessities. How do they expect people to be happy with a meagre 23% hike, when in private sector, this much hike is an annual affair, and still they want us to work as hard as private workers, and for as many hours. A annual incremant of 3% is the reason why the educates class of India does not venture into government jobs and stays away as far as required. This pay commission, and in turn, the BJP led government, may be good for the nation, but not for government employees. It may also be seen that even though the maximum black money deposited abroad is either by private officials, or by group A governments, still because of that, the group C and DD employees have suffered and are still suffering. If you cannot bring back black money, at least don't make the lower officials suffer, after all, the recruiting officers who had recruited the people stashing black money were not from group C or DD, but the likes of group A officers. Disappointed in this government. Poor man has always been poor and this pay commission has only increased the gap between rich and poor. Makes me regret the day I chose this government job over a private one.

What is the fate of poor, deprived, undignified and and worst suffer of the anomaly of 6th Pay Commission LDC!
ReplyDeleteThe report submitted by 7cpc was under Chairmanship by an ex-judge. The demand raised by Pillaiji for LDC/UDC has been reflected in the commission"s report. At least he demanded that the pay should be at par with DEO, where he has mentioned that the responsibility of LDC/UDCs higher than DEO which is real fact. In the report no where it has acknowledge. In this situaion would we be able to get proper justice from a sitting judge where as the report submitted by an ex-judge. Think and reply.
