Protests demanding - Seventh Pay Commission recommendations

Protests demanding the implementation of the 7th Pay Commission recommendations

The members of the Pudhucherry government employees associations have been making various demands, including the implementation of the 7th Pay Commission recommendations, the bringing back the former pension scheme, filling up the vacancies, and constituting the Redressal forums. They had announced that they would take leave of absence for a day and protest at the Chief Secretariat, demanding the implementation of their 34-point charter.

The employees assembled near the Pudhucherry General Post Office on Wednesday. They then took out a procession to the Chief Secretariat. Despite the fact that the police did not permit it, the procession began.

The procession was conducted by Sitaraman, the president of the government employees union. Honourary president Balamohanan led the procession. Office-bearers, including Premdasan, Christopher, Pughazendhi, and Namasivayam, participated in the procession.

The police tried to stop the procession when it reached Rangapillai Street-Ambur Road junction, but the members tried to continue. This led to heated arguments and tussles between the employees and the policemen. When the situation worsened, the employees squatted in the middle of the road, condemning the actions of the cops. This disrupted the traffic on the road. Finally, the representatives of the employees union and the police officers began to negotiate.

Eventually, the police permitted the protesters to continue with their procession for a distance. When the members reached the Ambalathadaiyar Mutt Road–Ambur Junction, they were arrested by the police.

220 people were arrested and released after some time.

Bonus orders for RPF/RPSF personnel in Railways

Grant of ad-hoc bonus for 30 days to the Group ‘C’ & ‘D’ RPF/RPSF personnel for the financial year 2014-2015

GOVERNMENT OF INDIA

MINISTRY OF RAILWAYS

(RAILWAY BOARD)

RBE No.140/2015

No.E(P&A)II-2015/Bonus-1

New Delhi, Dated 02/11/2015

The General Managers/CAOs (R),

All Indian Railways & Production Units,

(As per mailing list)

Subject: Grant of ad-hoc bonus for 30 days to the Group ‘C’ & `D’ RPF/RPSF personnel for the financial year 2014-2015

The President is pleased to decide that all Group ‘C’ & ‘D’ RPF/RPSF personnel, may be granted ad-hoc bonus equivalent to 30 (thirty) days emoluments for the financial year 2014-2015, without any eligibility wage ceiling. The calculation ceiling of Rs.3500/- will remain unchanged.

2. The benefit will be admissible subject to the following terms and conditions:-

a) Only those Group ‘C’ & ‘D’ RPF/RPSF personnel who were in service on 31.3.2015 and have rendered at least six months of continuous service during the year 2014-2015 will be eligible for payment under these orders. Pro-rata payment will be admissible to the eligible personnel for period of continuous service during the year ranging from six months to a full year, the eligibility period being taken in terms of number of months of service (rounded to the nearest number of months).

b) The quantum of ad-hoc bonus will be worked out on the basis of average emoluments/calculation ceiling whichever is lower. To calculate ad-hoc bonus for one day, the average emoluments in a year will be divided by 30.4 (average number of days in a month). This will thereafter be multiplied by the number of days of bonus granted. To illustrate, taking the calculation ceiling of Rs.3500/-(where actual average emoluments exceed Rs.3500), ad-hoc bonus for thirty days would work out to Rs.3500×30/30.4 = Rs.3453.95 (rounded off to Rs.3454/).

c) All payments under these orders will be rounded off to the nearest rupee.

d) In the matter where the aforesaid provisions are silent, clarificatory orders issued vide this Ministry’s letter No.E(P&A)II-88/Bonus-3 dated 29.12.1988, as amended from time to time, would hold good.

e) All the Group ‘C’ & ‘D’ RPF/RPSF personnel, regardless of whether they are in uniform or out of uniform and regardless of place of their posting, shall be eligible only for ad-hoc bonus in terms of these orders.

3. This issues with the concurrence of the Finance Directorate of the Ministry of Railways.
