Much awaited meeting of
the National Joint Council of Action (NJCA) was held on 17th January
2017 at National Council (JCM) Staff-side office at New Delhi. Leaders of
Railways, Defence, Postal and Confederation attended. Detailed discussions were
held on the developments that took place after the deferment of the indefinite
strike of 11th July 2016 and also on the totally negative
attitude of the Government towards the 7th Pay Commission
related issues of the Central Government Employees & Pensioners, including
increase in Minimum Pay, Fitment formula, Allowances, Pensioner’s Option-I etc.
Unfortunately,
there was no consensus regarding revival of the deferred indefinite strike.
Hence no decision could be taken. Meeting ended with a decision to meet again
after some days. In the meantime NJCA Chairman and Convener may try to meet the
Cabinet Ministers who have given the assurances on 30th June
2016 to NJCA leaders.
As there is no immediate
possibility for revival of the indefinite strike by NJCA, Confederation
National Secretariat has decided to intensify the mobilization campaign and
preparation for making the 16th March 2017 one day strike a
grand success. All Affiliated Organizations and C-O-Cs are once again requested
to make all –out efforts to ensure cent percent participation of employees in
the strike. In addition to the campaign programme of National Secretariat
members, each affiliated organization and C-O-Cs should chalk out their own
separate campaign programme. Please give wide publicity through local
print / electronic media and social media like whatsapp, facebook etc.
No doubt, our
strike will have a great impact in settling the demands and also in exposing
the powers-that-be who betrayed the cause of 33 lakhs Central Govt Employees
and 34 lakhs Pensioners.
Somebody
should come forward to protest and also, if necessary, to suffer and
Confederation is ready for it.
Let
Confederation lead and others follow.
