MISCELLANEOUS STAFF MATTERS RELATING TO S.B.C.O.,

PAIRING AND INTERNAL CHECK ORGANISATION

[D.G Posts letter No. 22-6/2000-PE.I dated 17.5.2000]

37. Regarding counting of the period of induction training for benefit of promotion under the TBOP/BCR Schemes :- The issue regarding counting of the period of induction training spent by the employees of this Department for the benefit of promotion under the TBOP/BCR schemes has been under consideration of this office for some time. After consultation with the Department of Personnel and Training, it has now been decided that the period of induction training may also be counted for the benefit of promotion under the above schemes. However, past cases decided otherwise would not be covered by the above orders. This issue with the concurrence of Integrated Finance Advice vide their Diary No. 378/FA/2000 dated 25.7.2000.

[D.G Posts letter No. 44-47/98-SPB.II dated 3.8.2000]

38. Counting of the period of induction training for benefit of promotion under the TBOP/BCR schemes-clarifications:-(1) I am directed to refer to this Department's letter of even number dated 3.8.2000 [Para 37] on the above subject. References have been received from many Circles seeking clarifications on the above orders. The matter has been examined in detail in consultation with the Integrated Finance Wing of this Department and the position is clarified as under.

(2) This issues with the concurrence of Integrated Finance Wing vide their Diary No. 320/FA/2001 dated 17.7.2001.

Points raised	Clarification
(1) What will be the date of effect of the above order,	The cases decided prior to 3.8.2000 would not be covered by the order dated 3.8.2000.
(2) Whether the departmental candidates will also get the benefit of counting of induction training period prior to their promotion as Time scale clerks for the  benefit of promotion under  benefit of promotion under  TBOP/BCR ?	DO P&T has clarified that since the period of induction training is counted for the purpose of increments and qualifying       service for departmental examination, it would also count for the purpose of promotion under the TBOP/BCR schemes. Therefore, it is clarified that the period of induction training in respect of departmental candidates would also count for the purpose of promotions under TBOP/BCR schemes provided that such training period is obligatory for the departmental candidates in respect of the cadre to which they are to be promoted and they are to be promoted immediately on completion of such induction training period and also such         training period is counted for increment in the promoted cadre.
(3) If the junior officials get               promoted earlier than the   seniors as per the orders   dated 3.8.2000, whether the   seniors can claim benefit of       promotion under the above scheme from the date of promotion of the junior officials?	As per letter No. 22-6/2000-PE.I dated 17.5.2000, officials would be promoted under the TBOP/BCR schemes only after completion of qualifying service. Therefore, the question of senior claiming benefit with reference to the juniors etc. does not arise.

DA from July 2016 in 7th pay Commission is 2% or 3%

DA from July 2016 in 7th pay Commission is 2% or 3%

DA from July 2016 in 7th pay Commission is 2% or 3% is yet to be confirmed

It seems that the DA from July 2016 in 7th Pay Commission is not yet finalized by Central Government. There is confusion persists on the rate of Dearness Allowance to be paid from 1st July 2016 in revised Pay . The AICPIN average for the year 2015 to be taken as Base Index for calculation of DA in 7th CPC as the DA has been neutralized to arrive the revised Pay.

The actual AICPIN Average for 2015 is 261.33. As per this AICPIN average, the DA to be paid at the rate of 2% from July 2016 in 7th CPC . But the NCJCM has contended that it should be paid at the rate of 3%.

The NCJCM staff side said that as per the practice of fraction is being ignored, 0.75 is ignored from actual DA 125.75 as on 1st January 2016. Since the 125% DA was merged to revise the 7th CPC pay, Accordingly, the AICPIN average of 2015 has to be revised to 260.46 from 261.33 to arrive the exact rate of DA of 125% .

It is obvious that the NCJCM Staff Sides claim has sufficient merits to be considered favorably by the Government. In that case, the DA to be paid from July 2016 will be 3%.

The NCJCM Staff Side should be appreciated for this timely intervention and effort.

The central Government need to take decision in this regard soon, as it has been passed third week of September. Usually the announcement of DA for July every year will be made in the first or second week of September.

మూత్రపిండాలలో రాళ్లు ఏర్పడటానికి గల కారణాలు

• నీరు, ఉప్పు, మినరల్ & ఇతర లవణాల అసమతుల్యతల కారణంగా రాళ్లు ఏర్పడతాయి.
• రోజు 8 నుండి 10 గ్లాసుల నీటిని తాగటం వలన ఈ సమస్య కు దూరంగా ఉండవచ్చు.
• మూత్రనాళంలో ఇన్ఫెక్షన్ కారణంగా మూత్రపిండాలలో రాళ్లు ఏర్పడవచ్చు.
• మూత్రపిండాలలో రాళ్లు ఏర్పడటం అనేది వంశపారంపర్యంగా సంక్రమించవచ్చు.

మూత్రంలో ఉండే నీరు, ఉప్పు, మినరల్ మరియు ఇతర లవణాల అసమతుల్యతల కారణంగా మూత్రపిండాలలో రాళ్లు ఏర్పడతాయి. అసమతుల్యతలు అనేవి మీరు కలిగి ఉండే రాళ్ల రకంపై ఆధారపది ఉంటుంది. స్త్రీ మరియు పురుషులలో కాల్షియం రాళ్లు చాలా సాధారణంగా ఏర్పడతాయి.

మూత్రపిండాలలో రాళ్లు ఏర్పడటానికి కారణాలు:

సరైనంత నీరు తాగకపోవటం

సాధారణ జీర్ణాశయంలో గ్రహించబడని ఉప్పు, మినరల్ మరియు ఇతర లవణాలు మూత్రంలో నిండి ఉంటాయి. కానీ, డీహైడ్రేషన్ కారణంగా, ఉప్పు మరియు లవణాలు అవక్షేపాలుగా ఏర్పడి, రాళ్లుగా మారతాయి. డీహైడ్రేషన్ లేదా ద్రావణాలను కోల్పోవటం వంటి కారణాల ఫలితంగా, మూత్రపిండాలలో రాళ్లు ఏర్పడే అవకాశాలు పుష్కలంగా ఉన్నాయి. కావున ప్రతిరోజు మనం 8 నుండి 10 గ్లాసుల నీటిని తాగటం వలన మూత్రం శుభ్రంగా (లవణాలు దీనిలో కరిగి ఉంటాయి) ఉండి, మూత్రపిండాల రాళ్లు ఏర్పడే అవకాశం తక్కువగా ఉంటుంది. రోజు 8 నుండి 10 గ్లాసుల నీరు తాగే వారిలో మూత్రపిండాలలో రాళ్లు ఏర్పడవు. మీకు నీరు ఎక్కువగా తాగే అలవాటు లేకుంటే రోజు 1 నుండి 2 గ్లాసులు తీసుకుంటూ, రోజు రోజుకు నీటి గ్లాసుల సంఖ్య పెంచండి. మూత్రం శుభ్రంగా లేదా తెలుపు లేదా తేలికపాటి పసుపు రంగులో ఉండాలి, మూత్రం పసుపు పచ్చరంగులో ఉంటే నీటిని ఎక్కువగా తాగండి.

ఇన్ఫెక్షన్ లు

మూత్రనాళాలు ఇన్ఫెక్షన్ లకు గురవటం వలన కూడా మూత్రపిండాలలో రాళ్లు ఏర్పడతాయి. ఈ రాళ్లు ఇన్ఫెక్షన్ వలన ఏర్పడటం వలన వీటిని స్ట్రూవైట్ లేదా ఇన్ఫెక్షన్ స్టోన్స్ అంటారు. ఈ రాళ్లు చాలా పెద్దవిగా ఏర్పడి కిడ్నీ, మూత్రనాళం లేదా పిత్తాశయాన్ని బ్లాక్ చేస్తాయి.

వైద్య పరిస్థితులు

కొన్ని రకాల వైద్యపరిస్థితులు నీరు, ఉప్పు మరియు మినరల్ లను అసమతుల్యతలను గురి చేసి ఇన్ఫెక్షన్ లను కలిగిస్తాయి. ఉదాహరణకు, కీళ్ళవాతం (గౌట్) లేదా కీమోథెరపీ చికిత్స చేపించుకున్న వారు యూరిక్ ఆసిడ్ సంబంధిత రాళ్లు కలిగే అవకాశాలు అధికంగా ఉన్నాయి. పేగు సంబంధిత సమస్యలు కలిగి ఉండే వారిలో అనగా ఇన్ఫ్లమేటరీ బోవేల్ డిసీస్, తీవ్రమైన విరేచనాలు మరియు పేగులలో శస్త్ర చికిత్స జరిగిన వారిలో మూత్ర పిండాలలో రాళ్లు ఏర్పడే అవకాశాలు అధికంగా ఉన్నాయి.

వంశపారంపర్యంగా సంక్రమణ

అవును వంశపారంపర్యంగా కూడా మూత్రపిండాలలో రాళ్లు ఏర్పడటం సంక్రమించవచ్చు. మీ తల్లి దండ్రులలోఒకరికి లేదా ఇద్దరికీ మూత్రపిండాలలో రాళ్లు ఉంటే మీరు కూడా ఈ సమస్యకు గురయ్యే అవకాశాలు అధికంగా ఉన్నాయి. కొన్ని కుటుంబాలలో రాళ్ల సంక్రమణ అనేక తరాల పాటూ కొనసాగుతూ వస్తుంది.

పారాథైరాయిడ్ రుగ్మతలు

అరుదుగా, పారాథైరాయిడ్ గ్రంధి నుండి అధికంగా హర్మోన్ ఉత్పత్తి చెందటం వలన కాల్షియం స్థాయిలు పెరిగి, మూత్రపిండాలలో రాళ్లు ఏర్పడే అవకాశం రెట్టింపు అవవచ్చు.

After GST, focus is on labour reforms

NEW DELHI: The government is gearing up for bold labour reforms after putting the goods and services tax (GST) back on track. An inter-ministerial group on labour headed by finance minister Arun Jaitley is slated to meet on September 15 to reconsider the labour ministry's proposal to introduce two legislations aimed at significantly enhancing ease of doing business in the country.

"The inter-ministerial group will meet to consider afresh the Wage Code Bill and the Small Factory Bill a senior labour ministry official told ET on condition of anonymity. The high-level group had met in December last year to discuss the two legislations.

Although everybody was on board regarding the content of the legislations, the group decided to put them on hold till the passage of GST Bill, the single most crucial taxation reform being pushed by the government at the time. "The group was of the view that let us not create any straw of resistance until the GST goes through. Now the road ahead seems to be clear for the government to push for more big-ticket legislation," the official said.

The labour code on wages provides for a minimum floor level national wage which will be mandatory for all states. This will give a boost to the government's recent initiative of increasing minimum wages 42%, a provision that currently applies only to central government employees and is only an advisory for states.

Besides, the labour ministry plans to streamline the definition of wages by amalgamating four wage-related statutes.

These include the Minimum Wages Act, 1948; the Payment of Wages Act, 1936; the Payment of Bonus Act, 1965; and the Equal Remuneration Act, 1976 to simplify the process of operating business in India. At present, there are about half a dozen definitions of wages in various acts across Centre and states which employers have to grapple with.

The Small Factories (Regulation of Employment and Conditions of Services) Bill, 2014 intends to make life simpler for small and medium enterprises, which are expected to flourish under the improved ease of doing business regime and in turn create employment.

The bill, pending for two years, aims to bring all small factories under a common regulation and exempt them from 14 central labour laws. It envisages rules for wages, overtime hours as well as social security.

SUB: - GRANT OF BONUS TO GDS WITH REVISED CEILING @ RS.7000- FROM 2014-15 – REQ – REG.

Respected Sir

            The Government of India, Ministry of Finance issued order on revised ceiling limit of PLB from Rs.3500- to Rs.7000- from the year 2014-15 (OM No. 7/4/2014-E-III A dated 29-08-2016) to all Central Govt. Employees. It is apparent to note that the calculation of  Productivity Linked Bonus  for the year 2014-15 with revised ceiling limit @ Rs.7000-to regular departmental employees in the Department of Posts  has been granted vide letter No. .26-01/2015-PAP dated  02-09-2016 and the arrears have also been drawn in favour of the regular employees.

            The case of 3 lakh GDS employees regarding applicability of revised ceiling limit @Rs.7000- is yet to be finalized by the Department.

            Therefore, it is requested to kindly expedite the grant of Bonus to 3 lakh Gramin Dak Sevaks at the revised ceiling @ Rs.7000- from 2014-15 prospectively.

            Early action is highly solicited.

Yours faithfully,

(R.N. Parashar)
