No. NC/JCM/2015
Dated: January 11, 2015
The Cabinet Secretary,
Government of India,
Cabinet Secretariat,
Rashtrpati Bhawan Annexe,
New Delhi
Dear Sir,
I
solicit your kind attention to my letter in No.NC/JCM/2014 dated 16 th
December, 2014, wherein we had conveyed the decisions taken at the
National Convention of representatives of the organisations
participating in the JCM. We are distressed that you have chosen not to
respond to our letter till date. We have so far not received any
communication from any quarter of the convening of the National Council
of the JCM. No effort has also been taken by any Ministry to convene the
Departmental Councils.
We have now been given to understand that
the Government has taken serious steps to set up a corporation to carry
on the functions of the 41 ordnance Factories, presently functioning
under the Ministry of Defence. We have also noted that the report of the
Committee set up by the Government to corporatize the functions of the
Postal Department. The inordinate delay in settling the demands for
Interim Relief and Merger of DA is causing distress amongst the Central
Government employees. The Railwaymen are particularly agitated over the
decision of the Government to induct FDI to the extent of 100% in
Railways, which we are aware cannot be done without privatisation of the
Railways. The declaration of the Convention, which we had forwarded to
you vide our letter cited had amply explained the anguish of the Central
Government employees.
In order to register our opposition to the
recent decision of the Government to corporatize the functions of the
Ordnance factories, we have amended Item No.2 of the charter of demands.
We send herewith the revised charter of demands.
The National JCA
met today and took note of the silence on the part of the Government to
our pleadings. The meeting has, therefore, decided to go ahead with the
agitational programmes, the first phase of which will culminate in a
massive March to Parliament by Central Government employees on 28th
April, 2015. If no settlement is brought about on the 10 point charter
of demands, we will be constrained to go for an indefinite strike
action, the date of commencement of which will be decided on 28 th
April, 2015.
Thanking you,
Comradely yours,
(Shiva Gopal Mishra)

Dear Comrades,
As
scheduled, the meeting of the National JCA was held at the Staff Side
office today, i.e. 11th January, 2015. The list of members who attended
the meeting is annexed to this communication. The meeting was chaired by
Com. M. Raghavaiah, General Secretary, National Federation of Indian
Railwaymen. The meeting made the following observations and took the
following decisions:
The Statement made by Shri Narendra Modi,
Honourable Prime Minister of the country at Varanasi to the effect that
the Railways would not be privatised was misleading and intended to
create confusion in the minds of the Railwaymen, especially in the
background that the proposal to induct FDI in Railways to the extent of
100% is being pursued vigorously.
The Government has decided to set
up a Corporation to carry on the functions of the 41 ordnance factories
under the Ministry of Defence.
Except in a few States, the steps required to be taken for form the State level Committees of the JCA have not been undertaken.
In order to expedite the formation of such committee in all States, the
NC JCM website will carry the names and addresses of the State leaders
of the participating organisations
The Zonal Secretaries of AIRF
will be asked to ensure that such committees are formed at all State
Capitals before the end of this month and the convention is held on a
mutually convenient date for all but before 15th February, 2014.
District conventions or March to Collectorates will be organised by the Committee in all District capitals of the country.
The entire month of March and the first half of April will be utilised
for campaigning amongst the employees at all work- spots.
The March to Parliament will be organised on 28th April, 2015.
Every effort will be taken to reach a target of 5 lakh workers to
participate in the said March. Target quota for each organisation will
be fixed.
The State Committees will advise the National Convenor as
to which organisations (those CGE organisations who are not presently
participating in the JCM must be addressed to join the movement.
The
State Committees after the convention will hold Press Conferences to
give media publicity to the decisions taken including the decision to go
on indefinite strike action.
The National JCA will hold a Press Conference at Delhi prior to the March to Parliament programme.
The Charter of demands will be amended (Item No.2) to include the
following words: “and ordnance factories under the Ministry of Defence.”
Reminder letter will be sent to the Cabinet Secretary expressing
distress over his silence and the non convening of the National Council,
Anomaly Committee and Departmental Councils of the JCM.
The
Convenor reported that the 7th CPC has informed him of their intention
to convene the meeting of the organisations for tendering oral evidence
in the month of February, 2015.
