Dear Comrades,
Preparation for making the 15th December 2016 Parliament March a historic success is progressing in full swing in all the states and Districts. Only one month is left now. All CHQ/State/Local leaders should intensify the campaign and mobilization. Confederation’s rally and parliament March will definitely have its own impact on all concerned. More than 20000 Central Government Employees will participate in the rally. Confederation of Central Govt. Gazetted officers organisations and some organisations of Autonomous bodies have also agreed to join the Parliament March.
Needless to say that the success of the rally and Parliament March depends on the efforts being made by the Affiliated organizations and C-O-Cs (especially at the grass root level) to ensure participation of employees as per quota fixed by National Secretariat. As Confederation alone is conducting the rally, our responsibility increases. Government may be keenly observing our campaign and mobilization. The rally and parliament march should become a warning signal to the Government that Central Government employees will not allow to be cheated by the powers that be. The evil designs of the Govt. shall not go unquestioned and unexposed.
CAMPAIGN PROGRAMME – CHANGES MADE - PLEASE NOTE
Available National Secretariat members at CHQ met on 13.11.2016 and reviewed the progress of the mobilization. It is decided that the campaign programme (see the circular dated 02.11.2016) in states, far away from Delhi, may be conducted by the C-O-Cs itself by utilizing the services of National Secretariat members available in their states and C-O-C leaders. No National Secretariat members from outside their state will be made available (National Secretariat members who are earlier allotted to outside their states may please note). It is further decided to concentrate the campaign in Delhi and following nearby states in the coming days. Meetings at the following places will be addressed by leaders shown below.

MEETING ON ALLOWANCES

            A meeting on Department of Posts specific allowances was held with the Committee on allowances under chairmanship of Secretary Finance and secretary Expenditure. From Department of Post, Secretary (Post), Member (Personal), DDG (Personal), DDG (Estates) , DDG(Estt. & SR), Director Estt. attended the meeting. From Staff Side Com. R.N. Parashar, Secretary General NFPE,Shri Theagarajan, Secretary General FNPO & Shri S.K. Mishra , Secretary General, BPEF, participated in the  meeting. Many other officers of DOP&T, Finance, Health Ministries also participated.

            Three meetings were held with Department and Administration and Unions after discussing threadbare came to conclusion and accordingly presentation was prepared which was presented before the Committee. Secretary (Finance) shown much interest and he asked so many questions and raised queries on each allowance and asked the Department to submit a report on financial implications.
            The meeting was concluded in a very co-ordial manner and we should hope for positive outcome. On the following allowances we submitted our proposal which is mentioned below:

          Fixed Monetary Compensation to Postman:

            Proposal: Not to abolish the allowance. It is proposed to grant Rs.300/- per            day for additional full beat and Rs.150/-  per day for sharing of beat(half beat)     and further proposed to increase by 25% every time when DA  reaches at    50%.(Department earlier proposed that allowance as Rs.200/- and Rs.100/-         but on the demand of Federations, now it is proposed  same as Rs.3oo/- and         Rs.150/-

          Special Allowance to PO & RMS Accountants:
            Proposal: The allowance is required to be continued as this special            allowance has been sanctioned in lieu of higher pay scale. If abolished, one           increment is to be allowed on promotion which costs more to the Department.        Therefore, it is proposed to grant special allowance equivalent to one     increment which will be kept separately and not to be added in the basic pay.         Other conditions applicable to present allowance will remain in force. (i.e. if      this allowance  is drawn for three  years it will be  added to basic pay while          pay fixation on promotion.)
          Cycle Allowance to Postman:
          Proposal: Must be retained while doubling the amount to Rs.180 p.m. and         further increase by 25% every time the DA increases by 50%
          Cash Handling and Treasury Allowance:

            Proposal: The Cash Handling Allowance should be retained and     need to           be doubled and further increase by 25% every time the DA increases   by        50%.

          Fixed Medical Allowance:

            Proposal: 33 Postal Dispensaries may be merged with CGHS.

      All Postal Pensioners irrespective of their participation in CGHS while in     service should be covered under CGHS after making requisite subscription.

      Till such time, the FMA may be allowed @ Rs.2000/- per month enhancing            from Rs.500/- p.m.  being paid at present.

Headquarter Allowance:
Proposal: Proposes to retain the Headquarters Allowance at the uniform rate of 10% of the basic pay subject to ceiling of Rs.9000/- per month.
Overtime Allowance:
 Proposal: Department recommends to grant additional duty allowance in lieu of OTA in operative offices only  for performing additional duty of absentee official.
It is proposed  Rs. 100/- per hour maximum of three  hours in a day and further  increase by 25% every time the DA increases by 50%.
Besides these we demanded S.B.  Allowance and Supervisory allowance to be continued and enhanced proportionately.
