Sub: Delegation of powers to SSB
officials.
Madam,
Kindly
refer to the minutes drawn against point No. 43 of the meeting held with your
goodself on 31.01.13 issued vide No.C.30013/6/2012-Ad.IV.A. Dt. 15.02.13 of
CBEC. Your
goodself was pleased to agree to the point in the meetings of 02.11.12 and
31.01.13 but there is no
change in the scenario as the training to the first batch 25 SSB officials has
already been imparted at NACEN in the month of March, 13.
2. It
is very unfortunate that our authorities are more interested to hand over our
powers to the other agencies instead of enhancing the powers of our own
officers.
Simply conveying the views of the Association on any issue to another authority
will solve no purpose until necessary effective steps with full seriousness are
taken to resolve the issue. It is also very unfortunate that our Board is not enhancing staff strength & powers
as per need while the Ministry of Home Affairs is very much keen to enhance
their workforce on the border encroaching our powers & authority. If it is
the approach, the days are not far away when whole of our work may be handed
over to other agencies or even to private hands. In Customs bonded areas,
Customs is understood the supreme authority but, very unfortunately, even
International Airports have been handed over to private companies and even the
government official passes for entry of our officers are being issued by
private hands. Thus, we are on the mercy of other agencies and private hands
even in the Customs areas.
3. The need of
the time is to intact our statutory powers and withdraw any move to dilute
these powers provided to us under the Customs Act. The statutory provisions of
Customs Act can never be overruled by any agency. The serious steps are
required to be taken to intact the prestige & pride of the organisation in
general and Superintendent cadre in particular by stopping the unwarranted
interference of the foreign agencies in Customs work. The work of the other
agencies (including security agencies) should be limited to their function only
without trespassing the powers of Customs officers. Otherwise, our Customs
officials should also be granted the powers of the other agencies.
4. In view of the above, it is
requested that the necessary step may kindly be taken in the matter
particularly for the sake of the protection of the grace of the job as well as department.
Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,
(RAVI MALIK),
Secretary General.

Sub: Reports by Range offices.
Madam,
Kindly
refer to the minutes drawn against point No. 45 of the meeting held with your
goodself on 31.01.13 issued vide No.C.30013/6/2012-Ad.IV.A. Dt. 15.02.13 of

goodself was pleased to agree to the point in the meetings of 02.11.12 and
31.01.13 but there is no
change in the scenario.
2. Simply
conveying the views of the Association on any issue to another authority will
solve no purpose until necessary effective steps with full seriousness are
taken to resolve the issue. Almost 84 types of
reports are being processed & complied at the Range level over-burdening
the Range office. Earlier to 2008, many such works were being carried out by
the Preventive wing of the Division offices. Due to the removal of Preventive units
from the Division offices, un-bearable loads have been transferred to the Range
Officers.
3. The urgent
need of the time is to re-instate the Preventive wings at all the Division
offices throughout the country to streamline the official work or to take some
alternative measures accordingly not to make the Range offices overburdened.
4. In view of the above, it is
requested that the serious steps may kindly be taken in the matter at an early
date.
Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,

Sub: Transfer of Sh. Thandilal Meena, President of Daman/Vapi Unit, to Surat.
Madam,
Kindly
refer to the Ref. No. 143/H/13 Dt. 04.06.13 of the Association.
2. It is further submitted with due
regards that Sh. Thandilal
Meena, President of Daman/Vapi Unit of Association, has been
transferred to Surat out of
the jurisdiction of Vapi/Daman
Commissionerate.
3. As per the
decades long established practice, the main Association functionaries were
never being transferred to outside the jurisdictional area of the concerned
Commissionerate. The DOPT clarification ID No. 16/18/2008-JCA Dt. 01.12.09 as
well as OM No. 16/18/2008-JCA Dt. 03.09.12 also
says that the existing practice should
be continued in r/o of the transfer of the Association functionaries, if it is
not less favourable in comparison to the DOPT guidelines on the issue.
4. It has again been reiterated
latestly by DOPT vide F.No. 16/18/2008-JCA Dt. 17.04.13 that, “In such of the Government
departments/offices where a different practice is being followed now, the
existing practice, if not less favourable, may continue.”
5. But DOPT guidelines are
not being followed in this case. Moreover, this All India Body is having its
units throughout India at Commissionerate levels. This body is having its
separate units for Daman/Vapi and Surat with different
sets of office bearers. Sh. Thandilal
Meena is the President of Daman/Vapi Unit. For Surat
Unit, the Association is having another officer as President. If Sh. Thandilal Meena is transferred out of Daman/Vapi Commissionerate, there will
be no President of Daman/Vapi Unit to look after the Association work and other
staff welfare activities. His transfer outside the Daman/Vapi Commissionerate
will jeopardise the interest and welfare of the members of the Association. His tenure as the President of Daman/Vapi Unit is yet to be completed
and it still remains for more than one year.
6. In view of the above, it
is requested that Sh. Thandilal Meena may kindly be retained at Daman/Vapi Commissionerate itself.
Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,

REMINDER

Sub: ACP/MACP
clarification.
Madam,
Kindly
refer to the Ref. No. 107/OS/13 Dt. 15.05.13 of the Association.
2. It is further submitted with due
regards that no response has been received on the matter even after expiry of
more than one month showing absolute non-seriousness of the concerned section while recovery from the salaries from our
officers has already been started. No clarification has been issued particularly on the following points
by the Board-
(a)
What grade pay will be paid to those officers on completion of 30 years who
have got time scale and then 2nd ACP upgradation between 01.01.06 and 31.08.08?
Whether they will be eligible for IIIrd MACP upgradation or will it be offset
against the time scale?
(b)
What grade pay will be paid to those officers on completion of 20 years or on
being eligible for IInd MACP upgradation who have got time scale before
completion of 20 years or prior to grant of IInd MACP upgradation? Whether they
will be eligible for next MACP upgradation or will it be offset against the
time scale?
(c)
If MACP upgradation is offset, what will the next upgradation will be
called/counted-IInd or IIIrd? How the IIIrd MACP upgradation will be granted to
the officers?
The officers falling under the categories (a) and (b) of para 2 above are
not being granted the due benefits by the field formations.
3. Every prudent person knows that any offset of ACP/MACP upgradation
with the time scale is not legally sustainable. Moreover, it is also not
understood how the time scale granted
between 01.01.06 and 31.08.08 (before
the origin of MACPS) can be
offset with MACP upgradation whereas the MACPS itself came into existence on 01.09.08. Even otherwise, the
MACP/ACP upgradation can no way be offset with the time scale because of both
having different identity as well as procedure for implementation. The time
scale is the part of the pay scale of the post being held by the employee which
requires no DPC whereas the ACP/MACP upgradation is not the part of the pay
scale of the post and it also requires DPC. The grade pays granted under the ACP/MACP
upgradation also belong to the higher post or higher hierarchy.
4.
No MACP upgradation is being offset even
by the State governments of Uttar Pradesh etc. One may say that MACP Schemes
adopted by the Central governments and State governments have no relation but
this notion is not correct because both
of the MACP Schemes (for Central and State governments) have been originated
from the same source, i.e., 6th CPC. It is also worth to mention
that the government was not having any intention to put its employees at loss
at the time of the formulation of MACPS as compared to ACPS. Rather, it was
formulated to grant additional benefit to the employees. In addition to MACPS,
one more additional financial benefit was granted independent of MACPS in the
form of time scale.
5.
As far as the para 8.1 of MACPS is concerned, it is nowhere (including MACPS
notification as well as Govt. resolution) mentioned that the time scale/NFSG
would offset one MACP upgradation. Para 8.1 merely says that the grade pays of
5400/- in PB2 and PB3 are separate grade pays for the purpose of MACP upgradation.
However, it is nowhere mentioned which is higher one.
6.
In view of the above, it is requested that a general clarification may kindly
be issued to all field formations clarifying each and every doubt on MACPS to
give justice to the officers at an early date without further delay as recovery
from the salaries of the officers has already been started in the field
formations. It is also requested that the field formations may be directed not to make any recovery until the issue is
settled finally.
