Subject : Submission of memorandum of All India Association of Inspectors and Assistant Superintendents Posts to 7CPC….clarification regarding.
Ref. : 7CPC Acknowledgement slip dated 27-8-2014 (copy enclosed)
Respected Sir,
Kindly recall our Association’s interaction with your majesty at ‘Kumara Kripa’ during your visit to Banglore on 25.08.2014 at around 07.30 PM. As per the discussions and instructions, the copies of Recruitment Rules [Annexure-1] of both Inspector of Income Tax/Central Excise and Inspector Posts are submitted herewith for your perusal and kind consideration.
Further, this association likes to bring the following issues haunting our cadre in a nutshell.
Point -1 : Non implementation of 6 CPC recommendations regarding upgradation of Grade Pay of Inspector Posts.
6th Central Pay Commission vide its Para 7.6.14 [Annexure-2] had rightly recommended the upgradation of scale of Inspector Posts from 5500-9000 to 6500-10500 and equated the scale of Inspector Posts cadre with that of counterpart that is Inspector Of Income Tax / Central Excise and Assistants in CSS and put them in the identical pay scales considering that they are all analogous posts.
But unfortunately, the same was not implemented though the GP of Inspector of Income Tax/Central Excise and Assistants in CSS are upgraded subsequently by the separate order of Ministry Of Finance vide OM No. 1/1/2008-IC dated 13.11.2009 & 16.11.2009 [Annexure-2A & 2B].
It is pertinent to note that the Honourable CAT, Ernakulam Bench had issued verdict to consider the upgradation of Grade Pay of IP to 4600/-. [Annexure - 3]
This Association earnestly requests the benevolent to kindly reiterate and recommend the decision of 6th CPC.
Point -2 : Considering of Promotion acquired through LDCE for the MACP purpose.
Since 66.66 % of the Inspector cadre posts are being filled up through the Limited Departmental Competitive Examination, the three financial upgradations under MACP scheme has not been deriving virtual benefit to this cadre.
So this association requests to delink the promotion conferred on account of LDCE with MACP.
Point-3 : Conferment of similar Grade Pay to both the Supervisor and the Supervised violating the principle of Natural Justice.
Inspector and Assistant Superintendent Posts are the supervisory cadre and controlling cadre for Postmasters, Postal Assistants, Postmen, MTS. We have to carry out annual inspections, surprise visits and also investigate the fraud cases during which the statements of the supervisory/operative staff has to be recorded and office records to be seized. Further, the honorarium bills, establishment statistics, public complaints against the operative staff are to be verified and enquired into by our cadre. To back, IP/ASP cadre officers are being nominated as Inquiry Officer and Presenting Officer in the Departmental Inquiries of Rule-14 of CCS[CCA] Rules 1965.
Such being the case, this cadre could not enforce required command and control over the subordinate staff in the light of the fact that they remain in the same Grade Pay by virtue of MACP and merger of pre revised scales of 5 Pay Commission 5000/-, 5500/- and 6500/- which was given the common replacement Grade Pay of 4200/-. Actually, this merger of three scales has downgraded the pay of Inspectors instead of upgrading. As a result, the Clerical/supervisory staff lie with the identical Grade Pay of 4200/- thereby dismantling the entire fabric of hierarchical structure of the operative and administrative cadre.[Copy of Hierarchy is enclosed-Annexure-4]
So this association fervently request the benevolent to consider this anomaly and recommend the Pay of the Administrative Cadre over and above the pay of supervisory cadre.
Point-4 : Injustice in fixation of pay as on 01.01.2006 for Inspector Cadre.
Though Inspector Posts scale was upgraded from 5500-9000 to 6500-10500, while fixing the pay as on 01.01.2006, only replacement Grade pay of 4200 was accorded and the pay was fixed with the pre revised pay of 5500 and not on par with the upgraded pay of 6500/-. The minimum pay of 6500 X 1.86 was not allowed and thus utterly disgusting and depreciating the morale of the cadre due to huge financial loss which will have cascading effect in our entire career including pension.
This association humbly pray the benevolent to consider all the above aspects and make appropriate and favorable recommendations and resolve all our predicaments.
With respectful regards,
Yours sincerely,
Sd/-
