to FM residence on 12.04.13 and mass resignations on 30.04.13-intimation reg.
Sir,
Kindly
refer to the Ref. No. 93/A/12 Dt. 31.12.12, 27/H/13 Dt. 04.03.13, 33/A/12 Dt.
18.03.13 and 34/A/12 Dt. 19.03.13 of the Association.
2. It is submitted with due regards that our officers are retiring
in PB2 after getting only one promotion in the service career while other
common entry counterparts of ours are retiring in PB4 after getting 5-6
promotions. We are deprived of the appropriate pay scale/pay band &
grade pay and facing the worst career prospects. Our officers are getting
promotion (if any) merely to Junior Time Scale while other counterparts of
CPWD, CSS etc. are getting to Senior Time Scale. The employee grievance
redressal mechanism has totally failed. We are forced to work under the
extreme juniors of Customs belonging to the same cadre. All of our
officers are totally demoralised and have nothing to be job-satisfied or
motivated. If career prospects were disclosed in the recruitment advertisement,
we would have never joined this job. The rights to grow, make progress and live
with dignity have been snatched from us. There is no change in the scenario
till date despite of the decades-long representations, pleadings and requests
of the Association and also our duties being performed by us like the most
obedient & responsible employees. It is, therefore, intimated that-
(i) The
officers from all over India will gather at Jantar Mantar in Delhi on 12.04.13
at 11 a.m. in their uniform and
proceed to gather around the residence of your goodself to submit the
Memorandum.
(iii) All of our officers throughout the country will
submit their resignations on 30.04.13 under protest.
3. The charter of the demands is enclosed herewith.
Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,
Encl:
