Copy of the Joint Action Committee Of
Accounts & Audit Employees & Officers Organisations letter Reference: JAC/FM/2009/11 dated 14th Dec. 2009 to Shri Nomo Narain, Minister of State Ministry of Finance,
Sir,
Respectfully we invite your kind attention to the award given by the Board of Arbitration on 24/08/2004 in regard to Pay Scale of Senior Auditors/Senior Accountants & Accounts Assistants of Railways:-
"The Government is directed to upgrade Pay Scale same as to the Assistants of Central Secretariat services of Rs: 1640-2900 (Rupees 5500-9000 with effect from 01/01/96) to all Senior Auditors/Senior Accountants & Accounts Assistants of Railways with effect from 01/01/86 notionally and actual payment from 12/11/01 the date of reference of arbitration to the Board"
As per the instructions given by the Committee of Secretaries, the above award should have been implemented or referred to the Parliament for modification/rejection within a period of six months ending on 24/02/05. However, it has not so far been implemented.
The matter was discussed in the Committee of National Council J. C. M. The official side contented that more than 1200 Crores would have to be paid by way of arrears if the award was implemented actually from 12/11/01 which the Government cannot afford. The staffside then suggested that actual payment may be from 19.02.03, the date from which Government have already ordered to upgrade the pay scale i. e. notionally w.e.f 01/01/96 actually from the above date. The officials stated that even then the amount of arrear to be paid would be Rs. 675 crores which is not feasible.
The staff representatives have been therefore, given in writing to forego all arrears and requested that the award may be implemented for the entire period from 01/01/1986 to 31/12/2005 notionally & actually from 01/01/06. Since accepting the recommendations of VICPC, Government have already upgraded the pay scale of these employees to pre-revised pay scale of Rs 6500-10500 Pay Band PB-2 with grade Pay of Rs 4200, there would be no extra liability for the Government.
The matter is however kept pending for last 3years in the Department of Expenditure.
We, therefore request you to intervene and persuade the Department and Expenditure to implement the award notionally for the entire period of 01/01/86 to 31/12/05 as it has been implemented with effect from 01/01/06.
The entire fraternity of employees of IA & AD and Organized Accounts Establishments will be grateful to you for this intervention and settlement of long pending demand.
With profound regards
Yours Sincerely

Subject:- request for settlement of long pending demands of Accounts and Audit Employees and Officers.
Sir,
The 6th Central Pay Commission did not do justice to Accounts and Audit Employees and while implementing the recommendations of 6th Central Pay Commission, Government of India also did not also take any favorable action to remove the injustice done by the pay Commission. The Accounts and Audit employees have been consistently requesting the Government of India to resolve the grievances of the Accounts and Audit Employees regarding their pay scale related issues. But the Government has created further disparity between the Accounts &Audit cadres and the Cadres in Central Secretariat by upgrading the pay scales of Central Secretariat cadres.
Also, there are various other issues –listed below- that are pending for long with resolution. The employees and officers of IA&AD and Organised Accounts are agitated over the non upgradation of pay scales of Audit & Accounts Cadres at par with CSS and also over the inaction on other long pending grievances.
It is requested that, appropriate action for negotiated settlement of all the demands may kindly be taken at an early date.
Thanking you,
Yours Sincerely
