Subject :-  Request for revision of  ACP granted to Emporium Staff in the Scale of Pay of ` 4000-6000 vide Order No. 434 & 525 dated 7/04/2000 & 9.05.2000   -regarding.

Ref. No. :- Your letter No. 6-300/Estt-Ind/1865 dt. 25/09/2012.

Sir,

            We are sorry to say that, your good department has sent a reply on the subject mentioned above vide letter No. cited under reference mentioning that, the ACP already granted to the Emporium Staff is correct without examining  the contents and claims raised by us.  

            Sir, the GoI had given the ACP Scheme benefit to the Govt. staff stagnated in the same post without promotion for 12 & 24 years of regular services and granted the scale of pay  pertaining the next promotional post as per their hierarchy.  As per recruitment Rule, the Emporium staff who  were holding the post of  Sales Girl / Salesman were eligible to  next promotion in  the  post of “Manager Emporium”, which carried the scale of pay of ` 4500-7000.  A copy of Recruitment Rule is enclosed herewith for your ready reference. Thus, the scale of pay of ` 4000-6000 granted to them is not at all correct and justified. Further, it would be appropriate to mention here that, at the time of eligibility of ACP to Emporium staff, there was no such post, which carried the scale of pay  of ` 4000-6000 in between Sales Girl / Salesman and Manager Emporium. Then, the question arise  as to how the department had granted lower scale of pay to the Said staff suppressing the material facts. 

            We therefore, once again request your goodself to kindly examine the matter in the light of the facts mentioned above and render proper justice to Emporium staff namely,   1. Mr. K.Hamza,  2. Ms. Lucy Stephen,  3. Ms. M.A.Fathima, 4. Ms. V.Valsala Devi by granting  them scale of pay of ` 4500-7000 as first ACP from the date of their eligibility.

Thanking You.

Yours faithfully,

Encl: A/A.
