We are very happy to inform all of you that, as per the reports received, large number of employees including Assistant Accounts Officers from all over the country participated in the one day strike on 16^th March, 2017 under the united banner of NFCAA.

In Karnataka strike was a stupendous success. 85% members participated and the strike was 100% in all major units. Strike in Rajasthan was equally encouraging. More than 80% members were on strike. All major units were totally closed with 100% participation. Success of the strike was more than 60% in Pune and 40% in Nagpur. Cent percent participations were there in the major Units of these two stations. Strike was partial in Orissa and Delhi. Till we prepare this circular, written reports from various stations were awaited.

It has been reported by our Branches from different stations that, ignoring the threatening of Controller General of Accounts to take disciplinary action and threatening of certain employees organization that no protection shall be extended to the participants of strike if disciplinary action is taken by the authorities, huge number of employees including Assistant Accounts Officers have participated in the strike which made the strike cent percent in 90% offices.

The strike was therefore, a stupendous success and the National Federation of Civil Accounts Associations (NFCAA) congratulates its members for making the strike a grand success.

The Central Government Gazetted Officers Organization (CCGGOO) had extended its official support to strike call given by the Confederation of Central Government Employees and workers (CCGE&Ws) and directed its affiliates to organize solidarity programmes in support of the strike.

Responding to this, the All India Association of Pay and Accounts Officers (Civil) had directed its Branches to organize lunch hour demonstration and other supportive actions on 16^th March, 2017. As per our report, solidarity programmes were organized in Shillong, Guwahati, Kolkata, Hyderabad, Bangalore, Chennai, Cochin, Trivandrum, Mumbai and Delhi by the Branches of All India Association of Pay and Accounts Officers (Civil).

RESUME ORGANIZATIONAL ACTIONS

· STATION WISE DAY LONG DHARNA ON 23^RD MARCH 2017.

· HALF DAY WALK OUT ON 6^TH APRIL 2017.

While we had decided to observe “Save Civil Accounts Day” on 1^st March, 2017 by wearing Black Badges and showing Black Flags to the ICAS officers who had decided to observe Civil Accounts Day in Vigyan Bhawan, New Delhi, Shri P.K. Berwah, Joint Controller General of Accounts had requested to one of the Chairpersons of apex level Co-ordination Committee and the President of All India Association of Pay and Accounts Officers (Civil) in the late night of 28^th February, 2017 not to organize Black day on 1^st March, 2017 and he would ensure that a meeting between the Controller General of Accounts and the Co-ordination Committee representatives takes place at the earliest.

The Co-ordination Committee being very rational in its approach had accepted the assurance and decided to suspend all its agitational actions for a fortnight. The Co-ordination Committee had accordingly conveyed its decision to Controller General of Accounts vide its letter dated 02.03.2017 and requested her to convene the meeting with the representatives of the Co-ordination Committee at the earliest.

But, instead of calling a meeting with the Co-ordination Committee representatives, the office the Controller General of Accounts had issued a back dated (23-02-2017) letter to the All India Civil Accounts Employees Association asking the Association to submit the agenda items so that it could seek time from CGA, as if CGA is not the head of the Civil Accounts organization and she has no responsibility of looking after the matters concerning with the officers and employees of Civil Accounts organization. They issued the letter to the All India Civil Accounts Employees Association on the plea that other two Associations i.e. AIAPAO (Civil) and AICAEACAT II do not have recognition but suppressing the fact that, it is the CGA office which is responsible for granting recognition to the Associations and it has itself withheld the re-recognition/ recognition of these two Associations intentionally.

Therefore, the present Controller General of Accounts and her officers being totally anti to the lower level officers and employees, they have betrayed and cheated the officers and employees. Instead of creating a congenial atmosphere in these penultimate days of closure of financial year by holding dialogue with the representatives of largest section of Group- B & C Officers and Employees, the Controller General of Accounts and her officers are going ahead with her decision of bringing deputationists for 643 vacant posts of AAOs. They are not at all inclined to settle any of our demands listed in the Charter of Demands. No Cadre Review, No Recognition, No Departmental Examination, No Promotion, No DPC and No Upgradation of Pay etc. etc.

We are therefore, left with no other alternative but to revive our organizational actions. Hence, as per the decision taken by us in the meeting held at Jaipur on 17^th December 2016, all of you are requested to implement the following programmes unitedly under the banner of Co-ordination Committee:-

1. Dharna on 23^rd March 2017:- All Co-ordination Committees are requested to organize day long Dharna on 23^rd March, 2017 in front of the office of senior most officer of the station.

2. Half day walk out on 6^th April, 2017:- All members are to stage walk out from the office for the 2^nd half of 6^th April 2017.

We know, just before the close of the financial year our Dharna programme on 23^rd March 2017 shall cause inconvenience and difficulties to many, but we are compelled to do so as the authorities who are to maintain balance in the organization are totally irrational and behaving in an irresponsible manner.

Subject:- Settlement of the Charter of demands of the Co-ordination Committee of Civil Accounts Employees and Officers Associations.

Madam,

We would like to refer our letter No:- COC/CA/2017/Corr-4 dated 02.03.2017 and state that, honoring the telephonic assurance of the Joint Controller General of Accounts in late night of 28^th February, 2017 that you would hold meeting with the representatives of the COC soon, we had suspended all agitational programmes for a fortnight with effect from 1^st March, 2017 so that a congenial atmosphere for dialogue is created. At the same time, we had also requested you to kindly convene a meeting with the representatives of the Co-ordination Committee vide our above mentioned letter.

Subsequently, the Central Headquarters of All India Civil Accounts Employees Association, in response to your office letter dated 23^rd February, 2017, had once again requested you vide its letter No:- AICAEA/HQ/A-2/2017/105-137 dated 14.03.2017 to kindly appreciate the fact that the Co-ordination Committee of Civil Accounts Employees and Officers Associations, which is in reality representing all recognized Associations and enjoying the confidence of majority of the officers and employees, was never ignored by any of the earlier Controller Generals and hence, you may kindly fix official meeting with the representatives of the Co-ordination Committee.

But, no information about holding the meeting has been received by us till date and it seems that the apex authorities of Civil Accounts Organization have gone back from the assurance offered to the Co-ordination Committee through the Joint Controller General of Accounts, Shri P.K. Berwah on 28^th February, 2017.

We are therefore, constraint to inform you that, due to betrayal to totality of the Group-B & C Employees by the Civil Accounts authorities, the state/station level forums of this Co-ordination Committee shall organize day long protest Dharna on 23^rd March, 2017 in front of the senior most officers of the station and the Co-ordination Committee of Delhi shall obviously sit in front of your office.

This Co-ordination Committee has also decided that a delegation representing the apex level Co-ordination Committee shall meet you personally on 23^rd March, 2017 to impress you about the urgency for the settlement of the long pending issues of the officers and employees of the Civil Accounts Organization submitted by the Co-ordination Committee in the form of CHARTER OF DEMANDS.

Thanking you,

Yours Sincerely,
