Respected Sir(s),
As we all know, Govt. of India has placed the employees of subordinate offices, who were earlier in the pre-revised pay scale of Rs. 6500-10500/-, in the grade pay of Rs. 4600/-. Those who are working in the Ministries have been placed in the grade pay of Rs. 4800/- and after completion of 4 years of service, they would be given the grade pay of Rs. 5400/-.
The employees of subordinate offices have been downgraded and put them behind 10 years (keeping in view the MACP be given after 10 years). There should also be a provision to give them the grade pay of Rs. 5400/- at least after 6 years of continuous service (not after 4 years). Therefore, I humbly request the concerned authorities to kindly consider providing grade pay of Rs. 5400/- after at least 6 years of service to those who are working in the grade pay of Rs. 4600/- in subordinate/autonomous bodies as Private Secretaries/Section Officers and place the agenda in the ensuing meeting of the Anomaly Committee so that they may come out of the depression.
With kind regards,
Kamal Kumar
