Ajay Maken backs cry for seventh pay panel
With a little over a year
to go before the next general election, the demand for a Seventh Pay Commission
has started to gather momentum. Union housing and urban poverty alleviation
minister Ajay Maken has taken the lead in endorsing the Central government
employees’ request for setting up of the new pay panel, citing the erosion of
real wages due to high inflation since implementation of the Sixth Pay
Commission’s recommendations.
In a letter addressed to
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, Maken underlined how every pay panel since the
Second Pay Commission, barring the Sixth Pay Commission, were set up in the
third year of the decade. “We are again in the third year of the ongoing decade
and Central government employees are justifiably looking forward to the Seventh
Pay Commission,” he said.
Recalling that it was
under Singh that the last pay panel was set up in 2005, after the NDA
government failed to do so in 2003, Maken, in the communication dated March 14,
requested that a decision be “taken on priority” for constitution of the
Seventh Central Pay Commission. “A notification for constitution of the 7th
Central Pay Commission is the need of the bour, which is bound to have bearing
upon about 20 million employees,” he said.
Maken concluded by emphasizing that setting up of the new pay
panel was in “larger interest of government employees as well as the (Congress)
party”.
