Sir,
You were kind enough to meet a delegation of the Joint Action Committee on the issue of implementation of the above award on 18th January 2010. You had kindly agreed to call for the concerned file from the Department of Expenditure and see what can be done in the matter.
It is hoped that requisite action has been taken by now.
We may kindly be informed about the latest status of the case and whether direction has already been given by you to get the award implemented.
Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,

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 which is as under-
"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 contended that more than Rs.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 to Rs. 5500-9000 i. e. notionally w.e.f 01/01/96 actually from the above date. The official side stated that even then the amount of arrear to be paid would be Rs. 675 crores which is not feasible.
The staff representatives have thereafter, 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 by 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 i.e. on par with that of Assistants of Central Secretariat, there would be no extra liability for the Government by way of arrears.
The matter is however, kept pending for last 3 years in the Department of Expenditure.
We, therefore request you to intervene and direct the Department of 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
