Earlier the staff side has submitted 158 subjects to the Department. We covered the issues of all categories of employees. The Directorate has not proposed to take 58 subjects out of 158 subjects and the remaining 100 subjects are now in the field. The reason attributed to the following grounds.
(i) Subjects pertaining to circles are to be taken at RJCM
(ii) Subjects already taken and discussed
(iii) Subjects not related to entitled class of employees under JCM.
We are in the hope that the staff side, JCM (DC) with its all out efforts, clinch results in the ensuring JCM (DC) meeting likely to be held in December 2014.
