DECISIONS OF THE MEETING
Keeping in view the scheduled
meeting between the official side and the National Executives of All India
Civil Accounts Employees Association under the Chairpersonship of CGA on 6th
November, 2015 at 3 PM, the meeting took up the item No:- 2 for discussion
first.
Agenda No: 2 Meeting
with the CGA authorities on 6th November 2015 on the demand of cadre review and
the Charter of Demands submitted
The meeting reviewed the status of
each items of agenda referred to CGA authorities for discussion through the 20
point Charter demands. After detailed discussion on each items the meeting
finalized its approach on them. It was also decided that, authorities would be
insisted to discuss the issue of Cadre Review with the representatives COC of
Civil Accounts Employees and Officers Associations. It was also decided that
the issue of grant of recognition to All India Civil Accounts Employees
Association Category II shall be one of the prime issues for discussion. However,
no issue shall be discussed with less importance and equal amount of stress shall
be given on all items. Thereafter, the meeting was adjourned till 7th
November, 2015.
The meeting resumed at 9.30 AM on
7th November, 2015
Agenda No: - 1 Review
of the decisions of last meeting
The meeting took up the 1st
item of agenda for discussion. Secretary General placed the minutes of the last
meeting held on 23rd September, 2015 in Delhi. The house confirmed the
minutes and accepted the proceedings.
Agenda No: - 2 Meeting
with the CGA authorities on 6th November 2015 on the demand of cadre review and
the Charter of Demands submitted
The meeting reviewed the outcome
of the meeting held with the authorities on 6th November, 2015 under
the chairpersonship of CGA. After initiating the item by Secretary General, each
and every National Executive member expressed their opinion regarding the
outcome of the meeting. It was the unanimous view of the entire house that there
was a positive response of CGA in particular towards the items discussed.
However, so far as the demand of Cadre review is concerned, CGA was not ready
to take up the issue with the Ministry of Finance any further on the plea that
the Ministry had stated that a holistic view on this matter in respect of totality
of organized Accounts and Audit Cadres shall be taken by the Ministry of
Finance only after the 7th CPC recommendations are submitted/implemented.
But the meeting could not
appreciate the above approach of the authorities on the ground that, in
persuasion of the recommendations of 6CPC Government itself had issued
guidelines for cadre review. As such the cadre review has been done in many
departments including the Group-A (ICAS) officers of Civil Accounts
organization and some of the departments it is under process. Hence there is no
logic of postponing the cadre review of Group B & C officers of Civil
Accounts organization beyond the recommendations of 7CPC and tagging it with the
cadres of other departments/ organizations.
Therefore, after detailed
discussion it was decided by the meeting that AICAEA shall approach all other
constituents of COC of Civil Accounts Employees and Officers Association for
holding a joint convention of three Associations at Nagpur within 25th
November, 2015 with the objective of launching serious struggle in the near
future and Nagpur Branch had accordingly, agreed to organize the convention.
Agenda No: - 3 Implementation
of decisions of the COC of Civil Accounts Employees and Officers Associations
and functioning of COC at different levels
In view of the developments
discussed under the agenda item No.2 and
due to inadequate preparation for the proposed walk out on 18th
November, 2015 it was decided that, other
constituents of COC of Civil Accounts Employees and Officers Associations shall
be requested to postpone the programme and take a concrete view in the
Convention.
While reviewing the functioning of
COC, it was observed that many stations/Branches have not yet formed the COC.
Since the strength of the movement would be dependent on the quality of unity,
the meeting once again called upon all Branches to take sincere effort for
formation of COCs at the state/ Branch level without any further delay.
Agenda No: - 4 Implementation
of the decisions of the Confederation
The Confederation had given a call for week long campaign
programme in support of the Charter of Demands which had to culminate on 6th
November, 2015. The NJCA had decided that NJCA members would stage a day long
dharna on 19th November, 2015 in Jantar Mantar, New Delhi and
Central Government Employees of entire country should wear Black badge on that
day and organize demonstrations.
It was reported by National Executive members/Branch
representatives that the programme was held in Mumbai, Nagpur, Hyderabad,
Chennai, Cochin/Trivandrum, Lucknow, West Bengal, Delhi and Bhubaneswar.
However, Dharna shall be held by COC Delhi on 16th November, 2015
instead of 6th November, 2015. Programme of 19th
November, 2015 shall also be observed.
The meeting appealed upon all Branches to participate in the
programme of 19th November whole heartedly and make it a success.
Agenda No: - 5 Organizational review
a) Enhancement of membership and
continuation of Foreign Service of Secretary General.
CGA vide orders dated 28th
October, 2015(copy annexed) has approved the amendments made in the constitution
of the Association by the 14th All India Conference held from 15th
to 17th July 2015 in Chennai and directed all heads of Civil
Accounts organization and DDOs to effect deduction of membership subscription
under the revised rate of Rs:- 80/-(Rupees eighty)only per member per month.
In view of this the meeting
directed all Branches/Units to request the DDOs to effect deduction of
subscription @ Rs:- 80/- from the month of November, 2015.
However, the meeting noted with
concern that the membership subscriptions are not coming from a large number of
employees/ Units. As such, the functioning of the Association
will stop and Foreign Service of Secretary General shall discontinue if the
condition does not improve immediately. The
meeting therefore, appealed upon the Members/Units/Branches to ensure deduction
and remittance of their subscription under new rate with effect from November,
2015.
b) Unit and Branch Conferences and Branch
level women convention.
The meeting noted with utmost
dissatisfaction that, despite repeated requests some of the units and Branches
have not conducted the Unit/Branch Conference and Branch level women
convention. Since it is against the democratic norm and interests of the
members, the meeting once again directed all such Branches to complete their
unit and Branch Conferences. UP East Branch
and Rajasthan Branch assured that the task shall be initiated/completed within
last week November 2015 in consultation with the Secretary General.
Agenda No: - 6 Outcome of the meeting with CA, MHA – regarding
Due to insistence of the Central headquarters, a meeting on
13.10.2015 was held with CA, Ministry of Home Affairs. Apart from the available
office bearers of AICAEA, representatives of the West Delhi Branch attended the
meeting. Most of the issues were of PAO, CRPF which constitutes the Delhi West
Branch. Though the Draft Minutes of the
meeting has been prepared in consultations with the Association, but final
minutes is yet to be issued.
In response to the demand of filling up of vacant posts it was
reported by the official side that, 165 dossiers were received and appointment
letters were being issued. It was also
informed by the official side that around 761 posts of different cadres have
been sanctioned/approved by Ministry of Finance. One of the most important fact
revealed by the official side in the meeting that – in the Civil Ministries/Departments
the ratio of staff strength between the Accounts and main Ministry/ Department
is 1: 794 whereas the same is 1: 96 in the Ministry of Defence which is a
discrimination.
Agenda No: - 7
Misc, if any with the permission of chair.
Com. Maundekar, Asstt. Secretary General discussed the problems
arisen in PAO, GSI, Nagpur after introduction of Biometric attendance system in
isolation. Since the Association is not opposed to the biometric system if it not
linked to Aadhar Card, the meeting directed him to ask the Unit concerned to
send a detailed note in this regard through the Branch for examination of Central
headquarters.
The meeting thereafter was declared over by Com. Shantanu
Bhattacharjee, President.
