Dear Sir,
Sub: Grant of additional increment to the railway employees implementation of 6th CPC recommendations.
Ref: (i) Railway Board’s letter No. PC-VI/2012/I/RSRP/1 (RBE No.40/2012).
(ii) NFIR’s letter No. I/I 1/Part I dated 07/09/2018.
(iii) NFIR’s letter No. I/11/Pt. II dated 11/02/2019.
Federation vide its communications dated 07/09/2018 & 11/02/2019 brought to the notice of Railway Board a specific case of wrong fixation of pay in favour of Shri Satyendra Kumar Lal, Chief Typist, DLW, Varanasi. Along with its communication, Federation also provided a chart highlighting the pay fixation done (Drawn) by the DLW/Varanasi vis-à-vis the pay due to be fixed in pursuance of Board’s instructions contained in RBE No. 40/2012 and requested that suitable instructions be issued to the GM/DLW, as also to other Zonal Railways etc., for proper implementation of Board’s orders (RBE No. 40/2012). Federation is disappointed to note that though period of over one year has passed, no action has been taken in the matter, while the employee continues to draw less salary.
NFIR, therefore, once again requests the Railway Board to connect Federation’s letters dated 07/09/2018 and 11/02/2019 and issue suitable clarification to the Zones etc in general and DLW/Varanasi in particular to ensure correct implementation of the instructions contained in RBE No. 40/2012 so as to avoid financial loss to employees on their pay fixation in 7th CPC Pay Matrix.
A copy of the instructions issued may be endorsed to the Federation.
Yours faithfully,
(Dr M.Raghavaiah)

Such corrections are to be automatically covered and the employee(s) are to be protected by the concerned administration based on the circulars.
Pay Commission is announced for the uniform benefit of all employees . Later circulars are issued to cover any loss by way of implementations to the employees on identification. Such fixations are to be automatically fixed and implemented by the concerned administration.
How ever any such left out minor mistakes – once identified and appealed by the affected employee(s) it should be looked in and corrected immediately by the administration to avoid further on his justice delay. But seems to be ignored/sidelined for reasons not known leading to unnecessary humiliations and forcing the employee(s) to appeal repeatedly and further through the unions and finally to go to the court for implimentations on his justice..
The above can be avoided and save a lot of time iif only the administration realise and act based on the circular and appeals from the concerned . But…..

The Rule says:
Such legitimate late payments in any form ( pay, PF , settlement, pension etc. ) are to be settled along with applicable interest (12% compounded ) at an early date as per circular No. 38 /64 / 98 – P & W (F) dated 5.10.1999 as per the payment procedure in para 61 of the 44 th Report of Parlimentory Standing Committee on Ministry of Home Affairs – ( time schedule for disbursement ) .
This is to be taken care automatically by the concerned and to settle along with the late payment.
Also suggested to issue the statement with annual details to enable the receiver to calculate for r he receivers tax difference payment .

I am Mukundan Rtd. employee (CMS I / DYCCM – E.No. 572682) from ICF in May 2010. (37 years of unblemished service).
Similar to the above is my case pending/prolonging on my fixation of pay from 1993. This hadresulted a loss of Rs. 200000/- to me in service and in my settlement benefits and pension benefits and further in 7CPC pension benefits also.
Mine is the lone case and was recommended by I CF covering all events in 2009 (after 6 years of my repeated appeals) and forwarded to Rly.Bd. for approval.
Thankfully, Secy. NFRI wrote a remainder letter to Secy. Rly. Bd. – No. II / I /2019 dt. 23.05.2019 covering all rules on eligibility and enclosed a copy of I CF letter of recommendation urging RB to issue a favourable order.
Hoping for a favourable order and request Secy. NFRI to take up my matter again and render justice to me.
