78.2 IDA DELAYED STILL..CHQ News
Till 4.45 PM yesterday (9-2-2016) the File is with new Secretary, Telecom.
Being a cabinet Note,
the Secretary is responsible for any mistake or factual error and
hence he will sign the papers only after studying the same. He has
taken over few days back only.
As far as we are concerned it is an old
case, delayed and delayed in Sanchar Bhavan.
‘contempt of Court’ on One extra Increment case..
One extra Increment was granted to Grade
III officials who did not get promotion to Grade IV. CCAs in seven
Circles refused to count this extra increment as pay while fixing
pension. Their plea was that with this extra increment the pay crossed
maximum of the pay scale and hence it can not be taken as pay.
Kerala circle Unit of
our Association and four members filed a case in CAT, Ernakulam. On
15-3-2012 the CAT gave a judgement and asked DoT to re-fix pension counting the
extra increment even if the pay exceeded the maximum of pay scales. Four
months time was given to implement their order.It was not honoured.
As directed by the
Directorate of DoT, the Kerala CCA filed an appeal in High Court. In July 2015,
the High Court dismissed the appeal. Even after seven months, the Court order
is not honoured. Directorate has not given any instruction to CCA, Kerala
despite repeated requests.
Finding
no alternative, our Association has filed a ‘contempt of Court’ petition
against the DoT and CCA etc. The High Court has accepted the petition on
8-2-2016.
