INTENSIFY FUTURE STRUGGLE
Three years of Modi Government are going to be passed.
The issues related to working class are not in the priority of agenda of
Central Government. Ten months have passed after notification of 7th
CPC Report. Committees formed to look in to issues of allowances, advances, pension,
NPS and anomalies with the assurances that these Committees will submit it’s
report within four months but after lapse of 10 months no positive signal is
visible from the side of Government. NJCA was assured by the group of Ministers comprising
Shri Raj Nath Singh , Home Minister, Shri Arun Jaitley , Finance
Minister, Shri Suresh Paphu, Railway Minister and Shri Manoj Sinha, State Minister Railways and Communications that a
high level committee will be formed to
look in to the matter of minimum wage and fitment factor and it
will also submit its report within four months. But nothing is visible on
this issue also. Based on the assurances of Group of Minister NJCA had deferred
indefinet strike on 11th July, 2016.
After lapse of 4 months
period the Confederation of
CGE&W and NFPE demanded the NJCA
leadership to revive the strike but the Major constituents e.g. Railway and Defence were not ready to revive the
decision of deferred strike , so Confederation and NFPE took the decision to march forward on the path of
struggle which is our legacy. We conducted
a very successful Parliament
March on 15th December-2016 in which besides all odds and
adverse conditions like fog in the North and Cyclone in South and cancellation and
abnormal delay of large number of trains and flights, the participation of C.G.
employees and NFPE Members was admirable. During the Parliament March one day strike on 15th February-2017 was declared
as mark of protest against non-fulfillment
of assurances given by the Government of India Due to Assembly election in 5 States the strike was postponed to 16th March-2017. This Strike
was a grand success in Postal Department as well as in the other Central
Government Departments and the participation of the employees was higher from any
other previous strike. With this strike a clear message has been given to the Government
that the Central Government employees are very much agitated and dissatisfied
and feel cheated and betrayed by the Government and they have expressed their
anger with these two major programmes including other protest programmes.
Further there
is need to intensify the struggle to put more pressure on the Government and
therefore two programmes have been decided
by the National Secretariat of Confederation and NFPE has endorsed
these .First protest demonstration in front of office of the Finance
Minister at North Block , New Delhi on
23.05.2017 and after that formation of Human Chain by Central Government Employees on 22.06.2017 at all important centres.
NFPE appeals all Postal,
RMS and GDS Employees to make maximum efforts to make both programmes historic success by maximum
participation of employees so that the
clear message should
reach to the Central Government
Employees and members of Confederation and NFPE cannot remain silent
spectators and this is our legacy and
heritage that we have achieved
everything by struggle and in future also we will achieve our legitimate rights and demands and protect
whatever achieved earlier.
We have to work
on the Mantra of “Unity for struggle and
struggle for Unity”
With this we have to intensify future struggle.
