Subject:- Official meeting with the National Executives and representatives of specified units of All India Civil Accounts Employees Association.

Reference:- Our letters No: AICAEA/HQ/A-3/2016/887 dated: 26.08.2016, No: AICAEA/HQ/A-3/CBEC/2016/924-927 dated: 28.09.2016 and No:- AICAEA/HQ/A-3/CBEC/2016/998 dated 24.11.2016.

Madam,

            I would like to refer to the above and state that, as desired by you in the discussion held between us in your chamber on 9th August 2016, this Association vide its letter No:- AICAEA/HQ/A-3/CBEC/2016/998 dated: 24.11.2016 had submitted the list of the items for discussion in the formal meeting you had assured to  convene.

            But it is nearly five months, we have not received any favourable response from your office.

            It may not be out of place to record here that, the representatives of this Association when tried to ascertain the status of the letters it had sent requesting you to convene the meeting, the representatives of your administration had categorically stated to our representative that, no meeting shall be fixed with the Association and the administration shall ensure it.

            Not only this, it has been reported by some of our members through their respective Branches and units that, when they personally met the officers of your administration they told that, if they find after verification that, they (employees) had requested to Association for persuing their cases, then administration shall not settle their grievances at any cost. We have subsequently noted from the orders issued by your administration that the reporting made by our member are true.

            Further, it has also been observed that, your administration does not appreciate that the authors of the letters of the Association are not an individual but an authorized signatory of the Association. They are passing loose and derogatory remarks on the signatory of the letter in public and creating obstructions into the process of settlement of his personal issues concerning with your office.
           
            We hope, you will definitely agree that, the activities of the persons running your administration are not only of doubtful integrity but they are also deliberately attempting to tarnish the image of head of the department.

            We therefore, request you to kindly inquire into the facts discussed in this letter and take appropriate action to set your administration in order.

            This Association is however, keeps its total confidence on your esteemed self and in pursuance of the same, requests you to kindly convene a meeting with the National Executive members of this Association at your earliest convenience. Since the situation has changed during the last few months, we are submitting a slightly amended agenda items for discussion in the proposed meeting.

            We also hope, you will not kindly ignore this request letter so that the resentment among the employees do not precipitate further and employees at different stations do not move towards holding of protest demonstrations which has been proposed to be held on 9th February, 2017.

Thanking you
Yours Sincerely,
Enclo:- as above

Dear Comrades,
At The Very Outset
The National Federation of Civil Accounts Associations
Wishes All a Very Happy and Prosperous New Year – 2017


HOLD LUNCH HOUR DEMONSTRATION IN FRONT OF THE
PAOS OF CBEC ON 9TH FEBRUARY, 2017

The employees working in the Civil Accounts setup of CBEC are suffering extremely. The administration of Pr. CCA, CBEC has been maintaining a harassing and vindictive attitude towards the employees. They are threatening and harassing those employees who are raising their voice of protests and on the other hand extending undue favour to their Hench men.
While discussing the Madurai and the Jaipur episodes with the Principal CCA, CBEC on 9th August 2016, she had asked the representatives of the Association to submit the items agenda for a formal meeting. Accordingly, the Central Headquarters of All India Civil Accounts Employees Association vide its letter dated 28.08.2016 had submitted 20 (twenty) items seeking a formal meeting. These issues were relating to filling up of vacant posts, provision of LDC and MTS, vacation of vindictive actions, Grant of better Pay Scales to DEOs, promotion of better employer employee relations, consideration of transfer requests, clearance of long pending compassionate appointment cases, clearance of MACP cases, ensuring proper drinking water supply and grant of annual honorarium to all etc.
Following the letter dated 28.08.2016; the Central Headquarters of All India Civil Accounts Employees Association issued reminders on 28.09.2016 and 24.11.2016 for convening the meeting. But no meeting was fixed. In pursuance of these letters, when the representatives of the Association called on the Administration of Pr. CCA, CBEC, the administration conveyed that, it would ensure that no meeting is fixed between the Central Headquarters of the Association and the Principal Chief Controller of Accounts, Central Board Excise and Customs. However, Unit Association is welcome for meeting on any day. In order to maintain a congenial atmosphere and to maintain the cordial relation between the National Federation of Civil Accounts Associations and the All India Association of Pay and Accounts Officers (Civil), the NFCAA repeatedly discussed the problem created by administration of Pr. CCA, CBEC with the President and Secretary General of All India Association of Pay and Accounts Officers (Civil). Responding to the request of National Federation of Civil Accounts Associations, President of All India Association of Pay and Accounts Officers (Civil) had also requested the administration of Pr. CCA, CBEC in the first week of December, 2016 to arrange the meeting. But, the administration of Pr. CCA, CBEC had given false assurance to him too as no meeting was arranged. The administration of Pr. CCA, CBEC has taken this position because of two reasons No. 1 if a meeting is held between the all India representatives and the Pr. CCA, CBEC misheves of administration shall get exposed and No. 2 if the meeting takes place between the unit representatives and Pr. CCA, CBEC sufficient pressure of administration could be exerted on the representatives of the unit Association in isolation and there would be no necessity of offering any commitment on any of the issues to the employees representatives and at the same time administration shall be able to claim that the meeting was convened with the Association.
Further, administration of Pr. CCA, CBEC has also conveyed to the members who had requested directly to the officers of administration for conceding their requests that, their reqeusts shall not be considered because they had approached the Association.
During last year, apart from vindictive transfer order of Madurai, all other transfer orders were issued in a selective manner without observing any norm or guidelines prescribed by DOPT & CVC. Even after holding DPC, the orders of Compassionate appointments have not been issued and reasons behind this are not obviously beyond doubt. Further, to harras, Secretary General, personally, the administration of CBEC is not reimbursing his sixth months old indoor medical reimbursing claim and not responding to the request of the Association to fix the Pay of the Secretary General after implementation of 7CPC recommendations.
In view of the above discussed anti-employee and negative attitudes of the CBEC authorities it has been decided that, all Branches shall hold lunch hour protest demonstration in front of the PAOs of CBEC Units on 9th February, 2017. The meeting shall adopt following Resolution and hand over one copy to the local head of office of CBEC and endorse its copies to the Pr. CCA, CBEC, New Delhi and the CGA under intimation to Federation Headquarters.
Dear Comrades, please implement the programme. If you do not implement the programme unitedly, your problems would not move towards the direction of settlement. It has been repeatedly established that, struggle leads to success. In CBEC setup itself the path has been shown in the recent past by Jaipur and Madurai Units.
With warm greetings,


(V.Bhattacharjee)
Secretary General
