Cadre Review of Barrack and Stores Cadre - MoD Orders

Ministry of Defence
D(Works-II)

Subject: Cadre Review of Barrack and Stores Cadre- reg

Reference is invited to MoD letter no. 76002/1St CR/BS Cadre/CSCC/23(l)/2017/D(W-II) dated 15.12.2017 and letter dated 10.05.2018.

2. During Inter Ministerial consultation regarding the Post of Joint DG (Resources), DoPT have noted some procedural and other discrepancies and stated as under
(i) The proposal of BS Cadre does not specifically mention the cadre as organised Group 'A' Cadre. However, the proposal has been finalized in a manner that it contains attributes of organised Group 'A' service such as DR element at JTS to the extent of 50%, all standard grade of Group 'A' Service upto SAG, making all the posts above JTS promotional, provision of 30% NFSG and mention of NFU, As such, the proposal tantamount to formation of an Organised Group 'A' service.

(ii) As per procedural requirements, for formation of a Service as Group 'A' Cadre/Group 'A' Service/Organised ' Service, the cadre review guidelines issued by the DoPT on 14/12/2010 are applicable. Proposals for formation of a Service as Group 'A' Cadre/Group 'A' Service/Organised Services are to be placed. before the Cadre Review Committee (CRC) headed by Cabinet Secretary with Secretary (Personnel), Secretary (Expenditure), Secretary (Administrative Department) and the Senior Most Member of the service concerned as Members. Based on the recommendations of CRC, approval of MoS (PP) and Finance Minister is obtained and subsequently the proposal is submitted for approval of the cabinet. The above, procedure has not been completed in the Cadre Review of Barracks and Store Cadre and the sanction letter has been issued only on the basis of approval of Deptt. of Expenditure.

(iii) The Cadre Review for Barrack and Stores cadre may also have serious implication on. the concept of organized Group 'A' Service/ Group 'A' Service/ NFU/NFSG etc. and various court cases on the matter of organized status/NFU/extension of 30% NFSG etc.

(iv) Accordingly, MoD's letter dated 15/ 12/2017 needs to be immediately withdrawal/kept on hold wrt Group 'A' cadre till the approval of the competent authority (i.e Cabinet) on the Cadre Review/formation of Group 'A' Cadre/Group 'A' service/organized status. The procedure as per Cadre Review guidelines issued by the DoPT on 14/12/2010 needs to be followed and proposal submitted to DoPT along with all necessary details. However, if it is intended to retain the cadre as Group 'B'/Group 'C' and not as Group 'A', the proposal may be revisited accordingly in consultation with DoE and while revisiting the provisions of DR element at JTS, 30% NFSG, NFU etc. which are characteristic/attributes of organized Group 'A' service may be withdrawn.
3. E-in-C's Branch is requested to review the Cadre Review proposal and resubmit the file in the light of DoPT instructions whether they intend to retain the cadre as Group 'B'/ Group 'C' or intend to create an Organised Group 'A' service. Based on the inputs, the proposal will be resubmitted to DoE if it is decided to retain the Cadre as Group 'B'/Group 'C' or will be taken up with DoPT as per the guidelines if the intention is to create an Organised Gr 'A' Service.

4. Further, E-in-C's Branch is requested to keep the Pay and Allowances of Barrack and Stores Cadre (BSO and above) in abeyance in light of the DoPT instructions till finalization of the case and in case pay fixation of the posts (BSO and above) have been carried out immediate steps may be taken to withdraw the same.

NPS PENSIONERS - YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE


Appeal to NPS Pensioners - Confederation

NPS PENSIONERS - YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE

As you are aware Confederation of Central Govt Employees & Workers has been opposing and fighting against the Contributory Pension Scheme (known as NPS) from the very beginning.
At the time of introduction of NPS, it is only Confederation Confederation, All India State Govt Employees Federation and the Left parties which strongly opposed it. Now a situation has developed that more than 50% of the employees in Central Government & State Government services and also in Central / State Public Sectors are NPS employees and even those Federations / Unions / Associations in the Central / State Govt services who were either confused or kept quite or supported Govt decision to introduce NPS in the initial stage are compelled to change their original stand and started raising their voice against NPS.

Confederation of Central Govt Employees & Workers, as an organization spear heading this struggle, is making intensive campaign against NPS and trying to build up a broad united movement of all like-minded organizations, so that a wider and bigger movement is built up no sooner than later, with an ultimate aim of organizing a nationwide indefinite strike to "SCRAP NPS" in future, if Govt is not ready to change their stand.

For effective campaign and also to expose the hollowness of the claim of the Govt and supporters of NPS, the following details of those NPS employees who have already retired from service is required.

(1) Name in full and Designation at the time of retirement:
(2) Name of the office and Department from which retired.
(3) Date of entry in service.
(4) Date of retirement.
(5) Completed years of service.
(6) Basic pay at the time of retirement.
(7) Amount of Insurance Annuity Pension being received now per month.

The information should be authentic.

All are requested to cooperate and furnish the above information before 31-10-2018.

Government Hikes GPF Interest Rate To 8% For October-December quarter

Government Hikes GPF Interest Rate To 8% For October-December quarter.

The government has increased the rate of interest for General Provident Fund (GPF) and other related schemes by 0.4 percentage points to 8 per cent for the October-December quarter.
The rate is in line with that for Public Provident Fund.

The interest rate on GPF was 7.6 per cent for the July-September quarter of 2018-19.

"… during the year 2018-2019, accumulations at the credit of subscribers to the General Provident Fund and other similar funds shall carry interest at the rate of 8 per cent with effect from October 1, 2018, to December 31, 2018," a Department of Economic Affairs' notification said.

The interest rate would apply on Provident Funds of central government employees, railways and defence forces.

Last month, the government announced that the interest on small savings, including NSC and PPF, will be hiked by up to 0.4 percentage point for the October-December quarter, to align it with rising deposit rates in the banks.
