INTENSIFY STRIKE PREPARATIONS

STRIKE AND PAY COMMISSION

 

 

COS MEETING

 

The COMMITTEE OF SECRETARIES on Pay Commission affairs met yesterday on 13.08.2008. It appears that the decisions of the Committee of Secretaries will be placed for the consideration of the Union Cabinet today. We are likely to know the outcome after the Cabinet Meeting only.

 

The issue is what might be the outcome? To what extent the Government will come forward to accept the demand for modifications sought for by the Staff Side? What would be the date of implementation and what would be the decision of the Government regarding arrears payment? Whether that would be paid in cash or impounded? What stand would be taken about Minimum Wages, Fitment Formula, Rate of Increment, Transport Allowance etc?

 

ANNOUNCEMENT SHOULD NOT DIVERT US

 

The Government may try to subvert the preparations for 20th August Strike by making some announcement immediately after the Cabinet Meeting or on 15th August 2008. The Confederation of Central Government Employees would come out with its reactions immediately after the announcement of Government decisions. However NFPE wants to emphasis that the Strike on 20th August is not only for Pay Commission related demands but also for other basic issues in the 13 Point Charter of Demands.

 

The Strike on 20th August shall stand and irrespective of any announcement from the Government about the implementation of Pay Commission, the Strike decision will have to be carried forward. NFPE Calls upon the entirety of Postal Workers to intensify the preparations for total success of the Strike. The success of the Strike is too important for building a strong defence for preservation of our pension rights and opposing any outsourcing and contractorising of Government employees functions.

 

VIBRANT DEMONSTRATIONS ON 14.08.2008

 

NFPE Calls upon to hold vibrant demonstrations today all over the country in front of Circle / Regional Offices / Postal Accounts / Divisional Offices / HPOs / HROs/ RMS / MMS Offices to highlight the 13 Point Charter of Demands.

 

The 20th August Strike by the employees and workers of National Trade Unions Centres, Public Sector employees like Banks, LIC, Oil, Telecommunications etc as well as by the Central Government and State Government Employees and Teachers would be supported by Bandh Calls and Rail Roko, Rasta Roko calls from left parties in several States like Jharkhand, Bihar, Orissa, Pondicherry Union Territory etc.

 

LET US ORGANISE 100% STRIKE BY POSTAL EMPLOYEES ON 20TH AUGUST 2008.

 

LET US NOT GET DIVERTED ABOUT ANNOUNCEMENT OF PAY COMMISSION BY THE GOVERNMENT.

 

STRIKE ON 20TH IS NOT ONLY FOR PAY COMMISSION ISSUES BUT FOR OUR EXISTENCE AND PREVENTING PENSION PRIVATISATION ETC.

 

MAKE THE STRIKE A GRAND SUCCESS.
