“DEFEAT
THE DISASTROUS NEO-LIBERAL POLICIES
DEFEAT
THE ANTI-LABOUR RULING CLASS POLITICS BEHIND IT”
10th JUNE 2018-HYDERABAD
STRIKE
DECLARATION NATIONAL CONVENTION OF CENTRAL GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES
Venue : SUNDARAIYYA
VIGNANA KENDRAM, BAGALINGAMPALLY, HYDERABAD
Time : 10
AM to 5 PM
Dear Comrades,
Attack on the working
class and peasants as a whole and Central Government Employees in particular
are mounting day by day. The entire working class and peasantry are on struggle
path. The farmers long march in Maharashtra is the latest mass struggle. None
of the 7th CPC related demands of Central Government Employees
are settled. The assurance given by the Group of Ministers to the NJCA leaders
regarding increase in Minimum Pay and Fitment formula is in paper even after a
lapse of 20 months. Now the Finance Minister has replied in Parliament that “no
change in Minimum Pay and Fitment formula is at present under consideration”.
Employees who joined service after 01.01.2004 are retiring with a megre pension
of 1000 to 2000 rupees only under the NPS Scheme. In effect, New Pension System
has become No Pension System. Six lakhs posts are lying vacant for the last
many years and now Govt. has issued orders to abolish all posts lying vacant
for more than five years. HRA arrears, MACP Bench mark, Option-I for pensioners
– Govt. is not ready to reconsider their stand. Three lakhs Gramin Dak Sevaks
of the Postal department are waiting for two years for their legitimate wage
revision. Exploitation of Casual and contract workers continue and equal pay
for equal work is denied to them. Large scale outsourcing and privatization has
become the order of the day. Privatisation of Railways and outsourcing of the
work done by Defence employees are in full swing. 12 out of 17 Govt. of India
Printing Presses are ordered to be closed. Same is the fate with other
departmental printing presses including Railway printing presses. Autonomous
body employees and pensioners are denied their rightful wage revision and
pension revision due to the stringent conditions imposed by the Finance Ministry.
Compassionate appointments have become a mirage.
Trade Union rights are
denied. Orders banning dharna and demonstrations are issued. The draconian FR
56 (j) and Pension Rules 48 are misused as a short-cut to punish and victimize
employees. JCM forums have become mere talking shops without any positive
results. Recognition under CCS (RSA) Rules are delayed and Departmental
Councils have become dead in many departments. Govt. sponsored unions are given
undue patronage. Recognition of fighting organisations are withdrawn on flimsy
grounds and trade union facilities are denied to the Chief Executives of
recognised Associations.
It is in this background
the National Secretariat of Confederation of Central Government employees &
Workers has decided to fight back these retrograde policies by mobilizing the
entire Central Government employees by unleashing intensive campaign throughout
the country culminating in strike. To declare the compaign programme and
the strike, a “National Convention of Central Government Employees” will be
held at Hyderabad on 10th June 2018 Sunday from 10 AM to 5 PM.
Eminent trade Union
leaders will attend the Convention. Venue of the National Convention is
Sundaraiyya Vigmana Kendra, Bagalingampally, Hyderabad. About 1000 delegates from
all states will attend the Convention.
The following quota is
fixed for affiliates and COCs outside Andhra and Telangana. C-O-C Andhra &
