Dear Comrades,
The
National Secretariat of the Confederation of Central Government Employees &
Workers met on 30.09.2016 at New Delhi, reviewed the progress made in
settlement of the charter of demands submitted by the JCM (NC) staff side to
the Central Government, with particular reference to the assurance given by the
Group of Ministers regarding constitution of a High Level Committee for
increasing the minimum wage and fitment formula. The National Secretariat
viewed with grave concern the totally negative and indifferent attitude of the
NDA Government towards the genuine demands of the Central Government employees
and expressed its strong protest against non-implementation of the assurance
given by the Cabinet Ministers to the NJCA till this date. As already resolved
by the 25th National Conference of the Confederation held at Chennai
from 16th to 18th August 2016, the National Secretariat
decided to organize independent campaign and agitational programmes culminating
in strike action. The National Secretariat, at the same time, resolved to
maintain unity under the banner of NJCA intact and also resolved that
confederation while conducting its own independent campaign and agitational
programmes, shall fully implement all the programmes of NJCA also at all
levels.
Accordingly,
the National Secretariat decided to organize the above mentioned phased
programme of action during the months of October, November and December 2016.
The National Secretariat further deiced that before finalizing the date of the
strike action, the Confederation leadership shall contact all likeminded
organisations and effort should be made to bring maximum unity of Central
Government employees for the proposed strike action.
MAKE THE PROGRAMMES GRAND SUCCESS
All
affiliated organisations and COCs are requested to start preperations
immediately for making the above mentioned three-phases of programmes a grand
success.
Yours
faithfully,
(M.
Krishnan)
Secretary
