Ref. No.CBEC/119/2009 Dated: 10.07.2009

To
Sri P.C.Jha,
The Chairman,
Central Board of Excise and Customs,
North Block,
New Delhi.

Sir,

Sub: Notice for agitation

The Inspectors of Central Excise are highly aggrieved by the inaction of the Ministry of Finance in resolving the legitimate demands made in respect of the following points.

1. The non rectification of anomaly in the pay scale consequent to the merger of 3 pay scales by the CCS (RP) Rules, 2008 thereby placing the feeder cadre of Senior Tax Assistant and the promotional cadre of Inspector in the same grade pay.

2. The denial of notional fixation with effect from 01.01.1996 in the pre-revised scale of Rs. 6500-10500/-. The scale was granted on 21.04.04 in order to restore historical parity of pay scales with Inspectors of CBI & IB.

3. To review the clarification issued by DOE to CBEC denying the non-functional grade pay of Rs. 5400/- after 4 years of service in the grade pay of Rs. 4800/- to ACP recipient Inspectors.

4. Lack of initiatives to remove acute stagnation of the cadre of Inspector of Central Excise and for non inclusion of Inspector cadre organization in the restructuring committee.

5. Non - inclusion of Inspector cadre organization in the Anomaly committee.

The Central Executive Committee meeting of this Association held on 3rd & 4th of July at Chandigarh has decided to embark on an agitation programme from the 15th of July 2009 as per the enclosed schedule. We request you to take the initiative for an early redress of the issues raised.

Thanking you,

Yours faithfully,

(Kousik Roy)
Secretary General
