If the performance of a person recruited on sports account is considered to be unsatisfactory, the probation period will be extended maximum up to two years and the person will have to improve his/her performance to get confirmed in appointment. Even after extended probation, if the performance is found unsatisfactory, then normal procedure will be followed for termination, before the completion of extended probation.

Instances have come to the notice of Railway Board that in spite of the above mentioned instructions no review has been done for years and this non compliance of extant instructions by Administration is leading to hardship being faced by outstanding sportspersons.

All Zonal Railways/Production Units may scrupulously adhere to the extant instructions and pull up arrears, if any.

The 4th item of SN/12 of the list, name Vijay Hazare Trophy (One Day Limited Overs All India Inter Zonal Championship) as under-19 Men Cricket Championship.

However as per the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) Handbook, the Vijay Hazare Trophy is for Seniors and is not a Junior Championship. The inclusion of the said Championship in the List of Junior Championship in the above said Board’s policy letter dated 31.12.2010 is thus a clerical mistake and may be treated as deleted.

 List of Allowances needed to be continued in the Railways: NFIR requests

National Federation of Indian Railwaymen

No.IV/NFIR/7 CPC(IMPL)/Allowances/2016
Dated: 08/09/2016

The Secretary(E), 
Railway Board, New Delhi

Dear Sir,

Sub: Committee to examine the recommendations of 7th CPC regarding Allowances-reg.


In the committee meeting held on 1st September 2016, under the Chairmanship of Finance Secretary at North Block (Room No. 72) New Delhi, the Standing Committee Members of JCM (Staff Side) expressed views on 7th CPC recommendations on Allowances. After hearing the views, the Chairman of the meeting stated that further meetings will be held and suggested that in the mean time the Staff Federations may send the list containing department specific Allowances to the concerned administrative ministries and JCM (Staff Side) may send list of common allowances to JS (Imp) MoF, New Delhi for consideration. The Railway Board Chairman was also present during discussions held on 1st September 2016.

In this connection, NFIR desires to convey to the Railway Board that:-

(a) while the previous Pay Commission had doubled various Allowances, the 7th CPC has recommended enhancement of only 50% of the existing rates in those cases of a few allowances recommended to be retained. This needs to be reviewed for improvement.

(b) The 7th CPC recommendations – mainly on Night Duty Allowance, National Holiday Allowance, Transport Allowance would in effect result reduction of existing amounts. These aberrations are required to be rectified and the amount of allowances enhanced.

(c) With regard to Allowances for Running Staff like Kilometerage, ALK etc., there should be separate discussions between the Federations and Railway Board for revision and improvement as was done in the past. Attention is also invited to Para 8.11.19 and 8.11.20 of the 7th CPC report.

(d) The Pay Commission in its report vide Para 8.2.5 has stated that any allowance not mentioned (and hence not reported to the Commission) shall cease to exist immediately. The Pay Commission has further stated that in case there is any demand or requirement for continuation of existing allowance, which has not been deliberated upon by the Commission, it should be re-notified by the Ministry concerned after obtaining due approval of MoF. NFIR suggests that this Para of the report be rejected by the Government. Alternatively, the administrative ministries be empowered for continuance of any such allowance, duly apprising the necessity of continuation to the MoF.

Federation also requests the Railway Board to kindly place before the Committee (chaired by Finance Secretary) the valid points brought out by the Federation through this letter and also impress upon the committee to retain the allowances listed in the Annexure and their enhancement, considering the fact that the Railways’ working is unique, complex and not comparable with any other Ministry.

Yours faithfully,

General Secretary

7th Pay Commission: Govt employees to get revised allowances from Oct 1; committee to submit report this week

New Delhi, Monday, September 12, 2016  : Government employees will have a real festive bonanza this year. As per media reports, central government employees will get the revised allowances as per recommendations made by 7th Pay Commission from October 1.

"The 7th Pay Commission examined a total of 196 existing allowances and, by way of rationalization, recommended abolition of 51 allowances and subsuming of 37 allowances. Given the significant changes in the existing provisions for allowances which may have wide ranging implications, the Cabinet decided to constitute a Committee headed by Finance Secretary for further examination of the recommendations of 7th CPC on allowances," a press release issued by the government after the Cabinet approval to Pay Commission recommendations had said.

The government has notified a 2.57-time hike in basic salary for 1 crore government employees and pensioners as per the 7th Pay Commission recommendations. The pay hike has been made effective January 1, 2016.

Ex-servicemen support service chiefs over pay commission

Jalandhar, September 13
The Indian Ex-servicemen movement (IESM) convener Lt Col Balbir Singh today said that this was the first time in the history of Indian Army that the incumbent service chiefs have declined to accept the 7th pay commission which projected lowest pay for the armed forces. 

"The entire community of the IESM stands by our chiefs and supports them in getting our respect and honour which is being lowered in status and pay. It is high time that the government should understand our well deserved demands before it is too late," said Col Balbir. He said tby bringing unrest in armed forces; the government was compromising on the security of the nation. 


He said the government should restore our status and bring pay and parity with other Class A services. He also said that the service chiefs should not bow down to the political pressure imposed by Union Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar who had asked them to accept it with immediate effect. —TNS

7th Pay Commission – Defence Minister asked for implementation inspite of resentment

New Delhi, 13 September, 2016: Overruling service chiefs, Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar has asked them to implement the 7th Pay Commission without any delay.

Last week, the three services - Army, Navy and the Air Force - had issued an open signal to servicemen informing them the implementation of the 7th Pay Commission is being kept in abeyance till anomalies are addressed.

On Monday, the three services, led by the Chairman Chiefs of Staff Committee, Air Chief Arup Raha met the Defence Minister to reiterate the need to address the anomalies before the 7th Pay Commission could be rolled out for forces.


Top sources told NDTV that Mr Parrikar gave the forces a patient hearing but was firm that the 7th Pay Commission had to be implemented and anomalies will be looked at by the government.

The major grievances of the forces include not being allowed non-functional upgrade (NFU) available to bureaucracy. NFU allows bureaucrats who have been passed over to get a higher pay as soon as their batch mates make it to the next rank, and a pay matrix that is separate from the civilian bureaucracy. The government has formed an anomalies commission to look to into these issues.

Defence Minister Parrikar's firm message to the forces comes at a time when a large section of the government feels that pay and perks of military is better than most other government services.  

"The military gets pension when no other service gets pension anymore, besides the military has been given One Rank One Pension (OROP), which is not available any other service," sources said.

It now remains to be seen the forces withdraw their earlier signal and takes steps to implement the 7th Pay Commission.

Ex-CPFs Welfare Association demands OROP, other benefits

JAMMU, Sept 13: Ex-Central Paramilitary Forces Welfare Association today stressed upon the Government to shun dividing forces on One Rank One Pension (OROP) and other benefits and extended the same in favour of jawans and ex-personnel of Central Paramilitary forces also.

Addressing a press conference here at Press Club, RB Pathak, president and SPS Malik, vice- president of all India Ex-Central Paramilitary Forces Welfare Association New Delhi, said that Central Paramilitary Forces (CPFs) at present are guarding all the borders of the country and maintaining law and order throughout the country by helping the police of States.


“During their duty, the CPFs face inclement weather conditions, natural calamities, scorching heat and avalanches, so the Central Paramilitary Forces are the First Line Defence, as it is facing the first stone, first bullet and First IED in any untoward situation”, they said, adding, despite this our Prime Minister is telling the nation that if the CPFs are given the pay and perks equal to Defence Forces than the Defence Forces will get raged.

“While CPFs have been created under the provision of the same constitution under which the Defence Forces have been created, the former is being deprived of their genuine and fundamental rights by not extending OROP in their favour”, they further said.

The association leaders said that the slavery system is arisen up again as Central Government has divided its forces treating one as real son and the other as step son.

Reiterating their demands like One Rank One Pension, exemption of New Pension Scheme, granting of CPFs Pay on the pattern of MSP, revision of pension of Pre 2006 retirees, Martyr status, Ex-Service Man status, separate pay commission for CPFs, medical facilities like ECHS instead of CGKS, etc, they said that if their demands are not met, they will resort to indefinite strike.

The recommendations of 7th Central Pay Commission for upgradation of posts for the categories of Railway employees have been referred to Department of Personnel &  Training by the Ministry of Finance for taking a comprehensive view in the matter.

The categories along with details are given below:-

In view of valid justification and recommendation given by 7th CPC for granting upgradation to higher Grade Pay in the case of above categories, the NFIR requests the Railway Board to kindly approach DoP&T to give clearance for implementation.

NFIR also conveys that there is apprehension among the staff that the approach of Railway Board is lukewarm, and not positive, consequently, the DoP&T is delaying its deci sion to convey approval while the 7th CPC similar recommendations for upgradation of posts in other ministries are being cleared.
NFIR, therefore, requests the Railway Board (MS & FC) to kindly impress upon the DoP&T to accept 7th CPC recommendation for upgradation of above mentioned posts early.

Govt considering EPFO's voluntary pension scheme proposal

Central Provident Fund Commissioner said that the voluntary scheme was besides the mandatory pension scheme being run by the EPFO

The Labour Ministry is actively considering proposal of a voluntary pension scheme mooted by the Employees' Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO), a senior government official has said.

"We have devised a voluntary pension scheme for individuals where workers can put in money voluntarily which would be managed by EPFO," said, V P Joy, Central Provident Fund Commissioner (CPFC).


The proposal had been sent to the Labour Ministry which is actively considering it, he said adding that the government was keen to formulate such a scheme.

"After the labour ministry considers it, it will be then sent to the finance ministry for income tax exemption", he told reporters in kolkata.

Joy said Life Insurance Corporation was also running a similar scheme, adding that the voluntary scheme was besides the mandatory pension scheme being run by the EPFO, where Rs 15,000 was limit for compulsory credit to the provident fund (PF) and the maximum pension amount was Rs 7,500 per month.

"The deduction of Rs 15,000 as compulsory credit is likely to be revised which will again raise the maximum pension limit," he said.

Under the proposed scheme, the employers could also make voluntary contribution if they wanted to for the benefit of the employees, he said.

Unlike the present PF pension scheme, the proposed scheme would have a vesting age of 60 years instead of 58 years, he said.

Joy said that EPFO would start an exercise soon to rank the performance of exempted trusts on various parameters.

"There are nearly 1,000 exempted trusts now. We will start ranking their performances shortly. Some of them are found to be dismal, their exemptions may be cancelled," he said.

The CPFC also said that pensioners would now have to link their UAN (universal account number) with Aadhar for getting pension. The EPFO was also taking with 24 public sector banks for disbursal of pension money.

"Linking of Aadhar to made mandatory by law. There are 104 crore odd Aadhar cards issued out of 125 crore total population. So there will be no problem," he added.

Regarding PF investments, he said only five per cent of investable money was being put into equity, which according to him was too small.

"Over time, this percentage of investments in equity will go up", he said.

Minimum Pay & Fitment Factor of 7th CPC: Memorandum to Committees of Secretaries by IRTSA

Additional Secretary (Expenditure),

New Delhi-110001

For kind consideration of the Committee of Secretaries
– On Minimum Pay & Fitment Factor of 7th CPC

Subject: MINIMUM PAY & MULTIPLE FACTOR AFTER 7TH CPC



Reference: i) Para 10.1.67 of Report of 7th Pay Commission
ii) Para 3 & 4 of Resolution No. 1-2/2016-IC dated 25-7-2016 of Govt of India on 7th CPC Report

We have to make the following submissions for the kind consideration of the Committee for regarding Minimum Pay and Fitment / Multiplication Factor:

1. MODIFICATIONS ACCEPTED BY SUPREME COURT & PRESENT DAY REQUIREMENTS IGNORED BY 7TH CPC FOR DECIDING MINIMUM PAY BY Dr. W. AYKROYED FORMULA

a) The Minimum Pay Fixed at Rs.18000 by the 7th CPC is very much unjust and meager and ignores the accepted norms in this regard.

b) The Minimum wage of Rs.18000 proposed by 7th Pay Commission is based on Dr Aykroyed
formula for Minimum Need Based Wage which was adopted by 15th Indian Labour Conference held in 1957. This needed to be updated as per present day requirements. As per law of natural justice and as per directions of the Supreme Court of India issued as long back as in 1991 in the case of Reputekos Brett & Co. Vs  Workers & others.

c) Prescribed provision of 25% to cover education, recreation, festivals & medical expenses has been reduced to 15% by 7th CPC. Similarly provision for housing has been reduced from prescribed 7.5% to 3% which are totally inadequate, unjust and unrealistic..

d) In para 4.2.8, Step-1, 7th CPC indicated that a family is comprising of three consumption units, as per norms set by 15th Indian Labour Conference (ILC) in 1957.

e) Computing husband as one unit, wife as 0.8 unit and two children each below the age of 14 as 0.6 unit is very much inadequate and 15th ILC had not considered maintenance of aged parents.

f) Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007 make it a legal obligation for children and heirs to provide maintenance to senior citizens and parents, by monthly allowance.

g) It is therefore, necessary that while calculating cost for maintenance household the aged parents should also be considered as 2 Units besdes the husband, wife,  two Children as consumption units per family and the same should be taken at least as four (if not five) instead of three.

h) Dr. W. Aykroyd formula on food & other requirements and associated requirements specified by 15th ILC shall be applied for 4 consumptio units per family.

i) Minimum Pay works out to be Rs.24,000 (instead of Rs.18000 recommended by the 7th CPC) and the multiple factor 3.43 (instead of 2.57 recommended by the 7th CPC)

j) Table-1 of 7th CPC for calculation of minimum pay needs to be redrawn as under by keeping 4 consumption unit per family:

2. MINIMUM PLUS DA WITH 40% FIXATION BENEFIT

a) 40% fixation benefit was given over 4th CPC scale to 5th CPC scale in general to all the scales.

b) 40% of maximum of 5th CPC scale was given over 5th CPC scale as fixation benefit in general in 6th CPC scales.

c) But, only 14.29% (i.e even less than 15%) of basic pay has been given as fixation benefit is after the 7th CPC over 6th CPC pay, which is grievously inadequate.

d) Table-2 given below gives the comparison on fixation benefit given after 6th CPC & after 7th CPC.

e) The Multiple Factor of 2.57 proposed by the Pay Commission for Pay Fixation is totally unjust, inadequate and arbitrary especially keeping in view the high  inflation (in real terms and wage rise in the organized sector including the PSUs after two revisions in PSUs since the Sixth CPC. The Fixation Benefit needs to  be at least 40% – as after the last two Pay Commissions and the Common Multiple Factor may please be fixed at least (Pay+DA) + 40% of Pay + DA, ie. 3.15  times of 6th CPC basic pay.

6Increase in basic pay (in Rs.) (5 – 1)15050
7No. of times increase in basic pay3.15
8Real wage no. of times increase1.40

k) Minimum Pay works out to be Rs.22,100 (instead of Rs.18000 recommended by the 7th CPC) and the multiple factor 3.15 (instead of 2.57 recommended by the 7th CPC)

3. MINIMUM PAY BY MERGER OF DA EVERY TIME THE DA RISES BY 50%

a) Merger of DA with Pay & Pension was always done every time the DA crossed 50%, except after the Sixth Pay Commission and that norm justifiably needs to be 
restored.

b) Minimum Pay as on 1-1-2016 would be Rs.19,687 if DA was merged with Pay when the DA crossed 50% (from 1-1-2011) and when it crossed 100% even without any relief  or fixation benefit of 7th CPC and the Minimum Pay would bebRs. 22,483 or say 22,500 with 14.29% of total emoluments Fixation benefit given by the 7th CPC (which  itself was the lowest ever after any CPC) – as per detailed calculations submitted below:

4. a) Minimum Pay after DA Merger at 50% & 100% and with 14.29% rise.

7000×1.5 = 10500 x 1.5 = 15750×1.25 = Rs.19687×1.1429 = 22500.272 or say Rs.22000

b) Fitment Factor after DA Merger at 50% & 100% and with 14.29% rise

= 22500 / 7000 = 3.21 times of BP

c) Even if the Merger of DA was done only once after it crossed 50% (on 1-1-2011), Minimum Pay as on 1-1-2016 would have been Rs.18375 (without any relief or 
fixation benefit of CPC) and Rs.20984 or say Rs.21000 with 14.2% Fixation benefit given by the 7th CPC as per details below:

d) Minimum Pay after DA Merger at 50% & 100% and 14.2% rise:

= 7000 x 1.5 = 10500 x 1.75 = 18375 x 1.1429 = Rs.21000.7875 or say Rs.21000.

e) Fitment Factor after DA Merger at 50% and 14.2% rise

21000 / 7000 = 3 times of BP

f) All the foregoing calculations of Minimum Pay and Fitment Factor are linked to only 14.2% rise of wages as inherent in the recommendations of 7th CPC – which is  the lowest ever rise after a Pay Commission in recent years.

g) The minimum Pay may please be fixed as Rs.22500 and the multiple factor for revision of Pay and Pension may please be fixed as 3.21.

4. It is, therefore, requested that, in view of above submissions:

a) Minimum Pay may please be fixed as Rs.24,000 and the multiple factor 3.43, by modifying Dr.W.Aykroyed Formula & 15th ILC norms by duly taking into account Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007. (or)

b) Minimum Pay be fixed as Rs.22,100 and the multiple factor 3.15 by giving 40% fixation benefit for the 6th CPC Pay & DA. (or)

c) Minimum Pay may please be fixed as Rs.22500 and the multiple factor for revision of Pay and Pension may please be fixed as 3.21, by merging the DA with Pay 
whenever it crossed 50% with fixation benefit of 14.2% equitant to the rise recommended by 7th CPC.

Thanking you in anticipation,

Yours faithfully,

7th CPC - Fitment Factor and Pay Fixation for Running Staff: Clarification by Railway Board

GOVERNMENT OF INDIA
MINISTRY OF RAILWAYS

No.E(P&A)II-2015/RS-25
New Delhi, dated 14.9.2016.

The General Secretary,
AIRF,
4,State Entry Road,
New Delhi - 110055.

The General Secretary,
NFIR,
3, Chelmsford Road,
New Delhi - 110055.

Sub : Implementation of the recommendations of 7th CPC - Fitment Factor and Pay Fixation for Running Staff.


The undersigned is directed to refer to the above mentioned subject and to the letter dt. 05.08.2016 of GS/AIRF and letters dt. 04.08.2016 & 23.08.2016 of GS/NFIR.

2. In this connection, it is stated that unlike during the Sixth CPC where there were separate fitment tables for pay fixation, in the Seventh CPC only a single multiplication factor of 2.57 and a single Pay Matrix table has been recommended and accepted.  Paragraph 2 of the Resolution dt. 25.07.2016 refers. Therefore, no other multiplication factor or Pay Matrix/ Fitment table can be used for pay fixation for any category of staff.

3. Further, as brought out in para 12 of the Resolution dt. 25.07.2016 pay fixation of running staff (who draw Running Allowance) has been clubbed with fixation pay of Doctors (who draw NPA). The methodology and illustration for computing revised basic pay in the case of Doctors have been clearly brought out in para 7 (B) (ii) of the Notification dt. 25.07.2016 of Ministry of Finance. It may be observed that the rate of increase. in the illustration in the case of Doctors is also not exactly 14.29%. in fact, para 12 of the Resolution mentioned that actual raise in pay at the time of initial fixation is to be ensured at about 14.29%. The figur therefore is not an absolute percentage of raise which has to be ensured, A similar methodology of pay fixation for  running staff (keeping the basic multiplication factor at 2.57) has been applied in consultation with and approval of Ministry of Finance.

4. lt may also be seen that while fixing the pay after revision in the appropriate cell of the applicable level in the Pay Matrix the actual increase in pay works out practically to around three times the pre-revised basic pay of the running staff.

5. Therefore, pay revision for Running Staff has been done in terms of approved formulation and no separate fitment table can be issued in this connection, as brought out above.

Yours faithfully

For Secretary/Railway Board
