Hooda government had earlier not implemented 6th pay commission report

While referring to the Finance Department order no. 1/83/2008-PR(FD), dated 18/8/2009, Mr Chautala said that the government has drastically reduced the basc pay of almost all the class 2, 3 & 4 employees recruited after 1 January, 2006. He said that the employees of the state were already agitating against the government for injustice meted to them by not fully implementing the 6th pay commission report. This new order is like putting salt in the wounds of the employees class, who were awaiting some relief from the government. The decision has been implemented secretively and no formal announcement was made.


Hooda government had earlier not implemented 6th pay commission report in number of offices/corporations/Municipal Council/Corporations/ societies etc and has done intolerable injustice with employees but the chief minister has been trying to befool the people by making the false promises to the various sections of employees like Arts & Drawing teachers, PTIs, JBT teachers, Engineers, Public Relations Officers, Lecturers, Doctors, Jail officers & employees, Veternary Doctors, almost all the class three & class four employees, Mr Chautala added. But now the double speak of the chief minister has been exposed and there is gross unrest among the employees against the treachery, he further added. The intent of the government was not to pass on the full benefits to the employees from the very beginning so the pay commission recommendations were manipulated to reduce the benefit for the lower class employees.



Mr Chautala said that the government has now made massive financial loss to the thousands of employees as they will not receive their increments till they reach upto their earlier basic pays. All the sections of employees like JBT teachers, Masters, School Lecturers, Nurses, ADAs, Drawing Teachers, Junior Coaches, Coaches, District Public Relations Officers, Waiters, Forestors, Junior Engineers etc have been adversely affected with this government order. The government has earlier also insulted almost all the employees by putting them to the lower pay band with respect to the 6th pay commission recommendations.


INLD chief disclosed that basic pay of employees in the grade pay band of 1800 has been reduced to Rs 7000 from Rs 7480, in the grade pay band of 2500 has been reduced to Rs 9940 from Rs 10690, in the grade pay band of 2800 has been reduced to Rs 10240 from Rs 11170, in the grade pay band of 3300 has been reduced to Rs 12600 from Rs 13440, in the grade pay band of 3600 for Drawing teachers, PTIs and other employees have been reduced to Rs 12900 from Rs 13830, in the grade pay band of 4000 has been reduced to Rs 13300 from Rs 16090, JBT teachers, DPROs in the grade pay band of 4200 has been reduced to Rs 13500 from Rs 16290. It is also ironical that earlier while implementing the pay commission report. Citing such example, he said that employees with basic pay of Rs 5,000, 5450, 5500, 6500 have been put in the 3200, 3300, 3600 and 4000 grade pay in 9300-34800 pay scale whereas they are all in the grade pay of Rs 4200 in 9300-34800 pay scale as per the 6thpay commission recommendations and would have got Rs 16290 as basic pay had the discrimination in deciding basic pay had not been done to them.


Similarly, prejudice and injustice has been done with basic pay of school Masters, Head Teacher Primary schools, language teachers and employees in the grade pay band of 4600 as they have been reduced to Rs 14830 from Rs 18460, for school lecturers and other employees in the grade pay band of 4800 has been reduced to Rs 15030 from Rs 18750, in the grade pay band of 5200 has been reduced to Rs 17290 from Rs 19150, Head Master High Schools and all other employees in the grade pay band of PB-2-5400 has been reduced to Rs 17490 from Rs 20280. However, for Class one officers in the PB 3 grade pay band of 5400 there is no decrease on basic pay of Rs 21000, he added. Similarly there is no reduction for the majority of senior Class one officers grades.


Former chief minister said that gross injustice has been meted out to retired employees after 1st January, 2006 as 6th pay commission report has not been implemented till date despite the false announcements of the government. Those employees have not got increased pay, gratuity, leave till date, he added. Retired employees have not been given LTC facility as per the central recommendations. 5 & 10 % increase for the retirees of age 65 & 75 years on Punjab pattern has been put to 85 & 95 years old, which is quite intolerable.
