ORGANIZATIONAL ACTIONS
BLACK BADGE
WEARING FROM 7TH TO 9TH AUGUST 2018
AND
TWO DAYS DAY
LONG DHARNA FROM 8TH TO 9TH AUGUST 2018
Responding to our
letter dated 26th June, 2018 the authorities of Controller General of Accounts had invited
representatives of All India Civil Accounts Employees Association, All India
Association of Pay and Accounts Officers (Civil) in truncated form and the Secretary
General of All India Civil Accounts Employees Association Category II for a
meeting on 10th July, 2018. This meeting was chaired by Smt. Suman
Bala, Joint Controller General of Accounts and the staff side was represented
by Com. V. Bhattacharjee, Secretary General, Com. Ravinder Kumar, Finance
Secretary, AICAEA; Com. S.S. Chauhan, President, Com. A.B. Sunil Kumar,
Secretary General, AIAPAO© and Com. Amole V. Sule, Secretary General, All India
Civil Accounts Employees Association Category-II.
In this meeting a
bird’s eye view of the 25 point charter of demands was taken and those were discussed
under a broader spectrum to develop an understanding between the official side
and the staff side and also to create a congenial atmosphere for mutual
dialogue.
The official side
offered the assurances of
1. Finalizing
and recommending the Cadre Review proposals to Ministry of Finance within a
month’s time but after discussion with the staff side represented by COC.
2. Convening
full-fledged meetings with the National Executives of the Associations within a
time frame of two weeks.
3. Holding
an exclusive meeting on the restructuring of AAO(Civil) Examination and
4. Resolving major issues pending including the
issue of granting recognition to All India Civil Accounts Employees Association
Category-II which has established itself as the second major Association in the
Category.
The official side
had also requested the staff side to reconsider their decision of holding Day
Long Dharna on 12th July, 2018 and the staff had agreed to respond
positively.
But most
disappointingly, the office of Controller General of Accounts had issued an
unilateral minutes of the said meeting on 11th July, 2018 evening
not only drifting themselves away from the assurances they had given but
deviating from the actual subject matters of discussion also.
The Co-ordination
Committee had lodged its instant protest against the above actions of the CGA authorities
vide its letter No:- COC/CA/2017/Corr-8 dated 11.07.2018 (Circulated through
email/Whatsapp/website).
However, being a
platform of responsible employees and officers Associations and a major force
of the officers and employees working in the Civil Accounts Organization, the
Co-ordination Committee behaved rationally and directed the local COCs and
members not to observe the Day Long Dharna on 12th July, 2018.
The Co-ordination
Committee had also decided to wait for the response of the authorities for a
fort night which ends on 24th July 2018.
But, finding no
sign of response from the authorities, the Co-ordination Committee has
decided to implement the 2nd Phase Organizational programmes
decided in the meeting of the Co-ordination Committee held on 18th
June, 2018 in Delhi.
The programmes are-
1.
Black
Badge wearing by all members from 7th to 9th August 2018.
2.
Two
days Day Long Dharna from 8th to 9th August 2018 at all
stations by the representatives of state/zonal/local Co-ordination Committee in
front of the senior most Officers of the stations (CGA office in respect of
Delhi).
We appeal upon all
of you to convene meetings of the local/zonal/state Co-ordination Committees
immediately after the receipt of this Circular and prepare for a showdown.
There should be office to office campaign and circulation of 25 (twenty five)
point charter of demands.
In order to
facilitate the preparation for the programmes we are displaying the model of
Black Badge below and annexing the 25 Point Charter of Demands.
With warm greetings,
