Note: * while the stenographer got 5000-8000/GP 4200/- on completion of 12 years under ACP, he should wait for 20 years under MACPS, Similarly he should completed 30 years for becoming eligible for GP 4600/- whereas under ACPS he could become eligible on completion of 24 years service.
The comparative position between ACPS and MACPS as mentioned above established that in Railways the employees have been put to grave disadvantage leading to serious resentment against MACP Scheme.
