Pune, the 30th April, 2012.

Dear Comrades,

First of all, I would like to take this opportunity to thank and as well as congratulate the Members of the Association, for their constant and unstinted support extended either directly or indirectly to the Association. The support extended is evident from the number of visitors of the blog, which has crossed the one lakh mark in a very short span of time.

Some of the members belonging to the DOS cadre, from Kolkata Central Excise Zone, had approached the Central Administrative Tribunal seeking upgradation of the payscales, by challenging the decision of the Board, which was communicated vide letter dated 09.09.2010 (click here for the copy of Board's letter). The Hon'ble Tribunal, has vide its order dated 21.02.2012 in O.A.No.2335/2010, (click here for copy of  Tribunal's order) issued directions to the Board to take up the matter with the Department of Expenditure for consideration of the demand. Accordingly the Association has taken up this matter with the Board vide letter dated 29.04.2012. Click here for copy of the Association's letter.

As regards the cadre review is concerned, it is learnt from various sources including the media (Taxindiaonline), that the Cadre Review file has been cleared by DOP&T with some reduction in Group 'A' posts. However, the status in respect of other cadres is not known to the Association, as the Board has not revealed any information on the subject matter till date. The Joint Action Committee is pursuing the matter and a decision on the possible future course of action would be taken shortly, and the members would be kept informed about the same.


Yours sincerely,
