Subject: Implementation of e-payment system in Pay and Accounts Offices (PAOs) of Civil Ministries /Departments – discussion regarding.

 

Sir,

            I am directed to inform you that the Federal Executive meeting of the National Federation of Civil Accounts Associations held at Delhi from 24^th to 26^th November 2011 has discussed and deliberated on the decision of Civil Accounts authority to introduce the e-payment system in Pay and Accounts Offices (PAOs) of Civil Ministries /Departments. The meeting observed that the implementation of e-payment system would not only affect adversely on the working condition of employees and officers of Civil Accounts organization but on the total payment functions of the Government of India too.  The meeting further noted that the system would bring more work load on the Civil Accounts Organization while the organization has already been functioning with the shortage of nearly 40% employees of actual sanctioned strength.

            The Federal Executive meeting therefore, directed me to request you to convene a meeting exclusively on this item and keep the decision of implementation of the e-payment system in abeyance till the meeting takes place.

            Since points to be discussed  by us on the subject matter  could very well be raised directly in the meeting itself, the Federal Executive meeting has also directed me to request you to kindly fix the date of meeting instead of seeking the points in writing from us so that time could be saved.

            The Federal Executive meeting further directed me to inform you that, the members of Federation shall not implement the e-payment system till the negotiations are held.

Thanking you,

Yours Sincerely

RESOLUTION ADOPTED IN THE FEDERAL EXCUTIVE MEETING

This extended Federal Executive meeting of National Federation of Civil Accounts Associations represented by All India Civil Accounts Employees Association and All India Civil Accounts Employees Association Category-II held today the 25^th November 2011 at Delhi expressed its deep anguish over the style of functioning of Sr. AO, CBEC, Madurai in harassing the employees and defying all norms set for the smooth functioning of the Pay & Accounts Offices.

The Sr. Accounts officer has created such a visious atmosphere in the office that even passing of genuine LTC claims, TA claims of the employees require the intervention of the Pr. CCA, CBEC or the other higher authorities and responsible AAO, are facing embarrasment of having their claims under objections. There are frequent instances when the officer is humiliating the members, intimidating them and deseating them from their sections. The things have come to an extent where the continuance of the officer to head the office would mean further humiliation and demoralization for its members.

The meeting therefore, unanimously resolves to urge upon the authorities to take necessary steps and immediately transfer the officer failing which the Association would be constrained to chalk out further course of action, including non-cooperation with the erring officer.

Resolved to forward the copies of the resolution to the CGA and the Pr. CCA, CBEC, New Delhi.
