          I therefore, request you to kindly consider the request of the Association and take early favourable action.

Thanking you,
Yours Sincerely,
Enclo:- as above

RESOLUTION

          This meeting of the available Federal Executive members of National Federation of Civil Accounts Associations represented by the All India Civil Accounts Employees Association and the All India Civil Accounts Employees Association Category-II held today i.e. 18th August 2016 in Chennai deliberated on the up-to-date situations  in PAO, Central Excise, Jaipur and PAO, Central Excise, Madurai.
          The meeting was very happy to note that the Controller General of Accounts was kind enough to intervene into the state of affairs of the Pay and Accounts offices of CBEC, Jaipur and Madurai. His office on the whole has sought an effective intervention of Pr. CCA, CBEC for settlement of situation arisen in both the offices. The meeting therefore, conveys it sincere thanks to the Controller General of Accounts and all other officers of his office.
          The meeting is also happy to note that, the Pr. CCA, CBEC had personally interacted with the Delhi based representatives of the Association on 9th August 2016 and agreed to respond positively. She had instantly instructed her administration to release of salary of the official transferred from Madurai to out of station and not paid salary by the PAO, CBEC, Madurai for two and a half months. The meeting therefore, conveys it’s thanks to the Principal CCA, CBEC for the sympathetic and humanitarian action taken by her. 
          The meeting however, observed that the administration of the Pr. CCA, CBEC has not taken any tangible step to settle the situation prevailing in PAO, Central Excise, Jaipur for last six months. Though the fact of the incidents and grievances of the employees had been systematically brought to the notice of the authorities by the Unit, Branch and Central Headquarters of the Association respectively but administration of the Pr. CCA, CBEC has been trying to process the so called inquiry against the grievances of employees by ignoring the Association and official procedure. Not only this, the administration is creating pressure on the individual employees in different forms which are nothing but attempts of drifting the focus of the issue to a different direction.
          As regards the situation prevailing in PAO, Central Excise, Madurai, the meeting of the Federal Executives examined the reporting of the meeting held on 9th August 2016 in Delhi between the Pr. CBEC and the Delhi based representatives of the Association and also the subsequent discussion held in the informal meeting on 17th of August 2017 between the Dy.CA, CBEC, South Zone, Chennai  and the  delegation of  National Federation of Civil Accounts Associations composed of Shri S. Bhattacharjee, President, Shri B. Sitaram, Vice President, Shri V. Bhattacharjee, Secretary General, Shri A. Balasubramaniam, Asstt. Secretary General, AICAEA, Shri G. K. Nair, Secretary General and Shri. M.S. Manivasan, Finance Secretary, AICAEACAT II. It was clearly evident before the meeting of the federal executive that the situation in Madurai was created due to the direct nexus between AO of PAO, Central Excise, Madurai and the administration of Principal CCA, CBEC. The PAO of Central Excise, Madurai being occupied with vested interests has been pouring in false and fictitious reports about the staff position to the administration of Pr. CCA, CBEC. Reportedly, he had gone to the extent of manipulating the seniority of the employees of his office and sending false work allocation reports to the office of the Pr.CCA, CBEC. On the other hand, the administration of the Pr. CCA, CBEC also kept various informations and reporting of the zonal head of the south zone  away from the notice of  higher authorities i.e. Pr. CCA, CBEC. It was extremely surprising for the meeting of the federal executives to find that the representation of the individual who had been transferred vindictively from Madurai was forwarded by the Dy. CA. CBEC South Zone, Chennai, but it was not placed for consideration of Pr. CCA, CBEC for nearly two months by her administration. The fact of submission of representation by the affected official concerned and its forwarding to the office of the Pr. CCA, CBEC by the Dy.CA, CBEC, South Zone, Chennai came to surface on 9th August 2016 when the representatives of the Association reported the matter to the Pr. CCA, CBEC.
          This meeting therefore, deplores the activities of the local administrations of PAOs of Central Excise, Jaipur and Madurai and also the actions of the administration of the Pr. CCA, CBEC as they are responsible for creating turmoil in the offices by handling the issues without following the measures laid down by the government of India and by not keeping the senior authorities i.e. Pr. CCA, CBEC and the CGA properly informed.
          Considering the gravity of the situation emerged as an outcome of the above discussion, the meeting resolved to urge upon the Principal Chief Controller of Accounts, CBEC and the Controller General of Accounts to kindly intervene personally and settle the stalemate in PAO, Central Excise, Jaipur and PAO, Central Excise, Madurai at the earliest.
          The meeting also resolves that the Resolution adopted shall be forwarded to the Controller General of Accounts and the Principal Chief Controller of Accounts, Central Board of Excise and Customs and all others concerned.
