An emergency CWC of the
Association was held at hotel K.K.International , Kochi on 28.11.14 in the wake of the charge sheets
issued to two of our members and also to discuss various other All India issues
and also various local issues of the members.
Nearly 3/4th of the CWC members participated in the meeting
which stood out by the active participation of all the members in the
discussions and deliberations held on the day.
The meeting started with a silent prayer which was followed by the
Presidential Address by Sri. Venunathan Pillai wherein our President gave a
broad outline about the All India scenario and also touched upon the local
issues. He stressed the importance of periodical group meetings in the
Divisions itself which will boost the morale of our members. The Presidential
Address was followed by a brief report by the Circle Secretary of the
activities carried out so far in the Circle and also about the All India issues
and the stand of our Circle on these issues. Thereafter the house went into the
various items in the agenda and indulged in detailed discussions on all these
issues.
All the members expressed
deep anguish and protest against the tendency being shown to charge sheet our
members for flimsy and shallow reasons and resolved to stand by those members
who are being harassed in this manner. The CWC also expressed strong protest
and indignation against the instances of insubordination being shown to our
members working in various capacities by their subordinate staff and the continued
inaction on the part of some of the Divisional Heads in not taking any action
on such instances. The CWC decided to pass a resolution condemning and
expressing strong protest and anguish over such acts which are bound to destroy
the morale of the cadre as a whole. The House also authorised the President and
Circle Secretary to fix an appointment with Chief PMG during his next visit so
as to apprise him of the situation and to request his immediate intervention in
the matter. The House also decided to take a decision to abstain from carrying
out inspections while holding additional charge of sub divisions if a
favourable decision is not taken in this matter.
Regarding other issues, the CWC congratulated our GS and his team
for having prepared a comprehensive presentation for submitting before the 7th
CPC members and for having effectively presented our case before the CPC. The
House also decided to support the merger proposal put forward by the CHQ which
is now before the Directorate. As for our Grade Pay case, the house decided to
await the outcome of the OA which is being delayed due to non-constitution of
Division Bench at CAT Ernakulam. Regarding the conduct of the next All India
CWC at Kerala, the house decided to conduct the CWC either at Trivandrum or
Kollam and to raise funds by way of contributions from members and also by way
of coupons. The meeting ended with thanks to the chair.
