Implementation of new scheme condemned

Staff Reporter

NIZAMABAD: Telangana Non-Gazetted Officers' Association president D. Sudhakar has strongly condemned the move by the Central Government to implement the New Pension Scheme (NPS) for employees.

Addressing a press conference here on Thursday, he said the Congress led United Progressive Alliance Government at the Centre was forcibly imposing the NPS despite the employees and workers across the country struck one day work protesting the new scheme.

All employees associations were getting ready to paralyse the administration from Kashmir to Kanyakumari if the Centre failed to withdraw its decision, he said and charged that the State Government was also following suit to carry out the NPS.

On dearness allowance, he demanded the Government immediately release the DA whenever the Centre announced it. He said there was discrimination against the State Government employees in the release of the DA. The Government announced the DA for its employees seven months after the Centre released the allowance.

Severe discontent was simmering among the State Government employees at the anti-employee policies of the rulers, he said and alleged that the State and the Central Governments were treading the way that was followed by their predecessors in the TDP and the NDA regimes.

To a query, he said the Joint Action Committee formed along with 60 associations would bring pressure on the Government for the implementation of G.O. 610. He strongly condemned the inordinate delay in the execution of the G.O.
