Shun excuses, implement 7th PC: SKUAST-TAJ | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, July 25: Sher-e-Kasmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology - Teaching Association Jammu (SKUAST-TAJ) has expressed disappointment over Government's decision to defer the implementation of 7th Pay Commission recommendations for another two years in the Sate. The issue came up for discussion in the meeting of the association held here today under the chairmanship of SKUAST-TAJ President Dr. Vikas Sharma. Questioning present Coalition Government Dr. Vikas said that late implementation of 6th pay commission by three years has already created a mess in different State Varsities and Departments as the pay anomalies of 6th CPC are not yet removed leading to financial liability in Educational Institutions of State and this time Government is again committing same mistake. He also demanded grant of HRA at equal rates / at par with Jammu city for scientists who are working in Research Stations and KVKs in far flung areas for the betterment of farming community as per 7th PC. SKUAST-TAJ President said that the attitude of Govt. shows double standard as on one side, the salaries of legislatures were doubled in a single stroke and now in case of employees the Govt. is giving excuses of financial crunch. He further said that no problem that Government has passed the bill to double the salaries /allowances of legislators from Rs 80,000-160,000/month, but at the same time the coalition Govt. should take care of Sate Govt. Employees regarding 7th Pay Commission. Dr. Vivak. M. Arya, General Secretary of TAJ said that the implementation of 7th Pay Commission by the Central Government is a laudable step, State Govt. while taking a cue from this decision needs to implement 7th PC report in letter and spirit and its benefit be extended to the Employees since 2016, as early as possible. "TAJ pins high hope on young CM Mehbooba Mufti to vigorously take up the issue of funding with Centre by arranging provision of proper budget and other financial grants so that the J&K becomes the first State in the country to provide benefits of revised salary." added Dr. Vivek. Dr. P.K. Rai Joint Secretary stressed that the Govt. should rethink on the issue of implementation of 7th Pay Commission in the State as employees cannot afford to wait for long in these hard times. The meeting was attended by Dr. Rajeev Bharat, Dr Devinder Sharma, Dr. Anil Bhatt, Dr. Poonam Parihaar, Dr Amitesh Sharma, Dr. Jai Kapoor, Dr Vinod Gupta, Dr Puneet Choudhary, Dr. Vijay Bahadur Singh and other executive members of TAJ. |
