Recommended GDS Arrear Table By GDS Pay Committee 2016

GDS Committee 2016 has Recommended 11 GDS Arrear Table to calculate the arrears of Gramin Dak Sevak. Committee (Kamalesh Chandra Committee) marge the 11 TRCA slab into 3 New Wages Scale which shows below mention minimum pay.
Wages Scale 1 – 10,000/-
Wages Scale 2 – 12,000/-
Wages Scale 3 – 14,500/-

We all know that GDS Committee 2016 will implemented on 01.01.2016 but still now GDS pay has counted on Nataraja Murti Committee 2007 (GDS Pay Committee 2007. So, we need to that how much Arrears GDS will get? . By following the Recommended GDS Arrears By GDS Pay Committee 2016 you can calculate yourself.

Step to follow –
First check your basic pay on your respective Pay slab (for example you can follow this 2295-45-3695) as on 01.01.2016. and add 125% DA with Basic. If your basic 2295 adding 125% your pay will be 5164/-
If Government take just 2.57 multiple factor then pay will be 5898/- but committee recommended beyond the 7th Pay Commission multiple factor which is minimum 10,000/-
Now you need to calculate the difference between your pay (which u got on or before 01.01.2016) and corresponding TRCA for calculation of Arrears (Below Table).
In this case the monthly arrears will be 7500-5164=2366/-
Now you need to calculate your total arrears. January 2016 to April 2018 total month 28. i.e 2366*28=65,408/-

[Note : If you got minimum payment then you can get maximum arrears as per committee recommendation.]Recommended GDS Arrear Table – 1

Why 3% Increment Is Beneficial For Gramin Dak Sevak?

GDS Pay Committee 2016 or Kamalesh Chandra Committee 2016 is recommended the 3% increment for GDS Employee and it is one of the most important recommendation of this committee, but why 3% Increment is Beneficial for Gramin Dak Sevak ?

 

Why 3% Increment is Beneficial for Gramin Dak Sevak?

GDS official is the backbone of India Post but they are outside of so called CG Employee benefited like TA, Pension, Child Education Allowance, transport allowance, HRA and others. The Previous Pay committee for GDS employee has made a fixed annual increment for each slab. Example :BPM for 5 Hours Duty 4575-85-7125. Here increment is 85 rupees per year. EDDA Hours Duty 4220-75-6470 Here increment is 75 rupees per year and MC/MP for 5 hours Duty 3635-65-5585 and Here increment is 65 rupees per year which is fixed and there is no option to increase TRCA every year and DA has not added with increment but Kamalesh Chandra Recommended for Gramin Dak Sevak 3% annual increment and this is the favorable recommendation of the Committee.

Why it is Beneficial? :-

The 3% increment will be calculate on your basic pay and it will added your pay and then next year you will gain 3% more increment on your previous 3% increment. In this way pay will increase more every year because increment will calculate like compound interest. for Example if your basic pay will 10,000/- Rupees after 1 year your pay will be : 10,000/-*3%=300/- total pay 10,300/- and next year your increment will calculate on 10,300/- and you will gain Rs. 9 more next year.

Today's unrest of GDS is only because of non submission of Statutory ED Rules of 1959 by Department of Posts to the Hon'ble High Court of Madras

Today's unrest of GDS is only because of non submission of Statutory ED Rules of 1959 by Department of Posts to the Hon'ble High Court of Madras.

After Independence , in 1959 a Statutory Rule under provisions to Article 309 of Constitution of India was promulgated regarding Conduct & Service of ED Agents.

This shows that the ED Agents were considered to be holders of Civil Posts under the Union.

However, the Department is consistently taking a stand that the GDS are considered to be holding Civil Posts only for the limited purpose of extending the benefit of Article 311.There is no justification for this stand.The Constitution does not make any distinction in this regard.

After these rules were promulgated , the High Court of Madras held that ED Agents are not holders of Civil Posts.

This was made with out noticing the Statutory Rules already promulgated.

The Department of Posts had ignored the duty of brought forward the existance of the Statutory Rules  of 1959 to the notice of Hon'ble High Court of Madras in 1960.

But either by mistake or design , the Court was not informed about this.

Later , the Statutory Rules were replaced based on the judgement of the Hon'ble High Court as Postal& Telegraphs Extra Departmental Agents (Conduct & Service ) Rules ,1964.

After that 1964 Rules were amended as GDS(Conduct & Employment) Rules ,2001.

Then previous rules were amended as GDS Conduct & Engagement Rules, 2011

These above said 2011 Rules are not made under provisions to Article 309 of the Indian Constitution. 

It can at best be considered as an executive instruction and nothing more.

Though this is named a 'rule' , it is by and large accepted that the status of the 'rules ' is that of a compilation of administrative instrustions.

In the absence of Statutory Rules , such instructions are binding .

However , even the Supreme Court has made the mistakes of considering these rules as Statutory Rules.

We demand

To restore ED Conduct & Service Rules ,1959 & 1964 which were related to Article 309 & 311
