JAMMU, June 15: Stressing on the need for immediate regularization of casual and seasonal labourers working in various departments of the State Government, president of National Mazdoor Conference (NMC), Subhash Shastri, today appealed the Chief Minister, Omar Abdullah to regularize these daily rated workers as and when the State Government receives the lists of casual and seasonal labourers.
Addressing a largely attended NMC workers rally at Brahmin Sabha here, Shastri also urged upon the chairman of 7th Pay Commission to recommend to the NDA Government at the Centre to grant 20% interim relief in favour of both Central and State Government employees and pensioners, merger of 50% DA with basic pay and pension and enhancement of retirement age of Central Government employees to 62 years.
Shastri emphasized that whenever the recommendations of the Commission are submitted to the Central Government, the Commission should also recommend to the Central Government for extending these recommendations to the State Government employees along with provision of funds to J&K Government so that the State Government employees do not have to wait for getting benefits of 7th Pay Commission.
Shastri further urged upon the 7th Pay Commission to make encouraging and practical recommendations in view of the hiking inflation and price hike. He further demanded that the Commission should now start visiting various states of the country to have first hand views of the representatives of the Employees’ federations. This will help the Commission to make realistic recommendations to the Central Government, he added.
