Sub:- Observance of three phase countrywide agitational programme by GDS JCA

Sir,

As you are aware non-implementation of positive and basic recommendations of Kamlesh Chandra committee on G.D.S Employees viz., implementation with effect from 01st of January 2016, gratuity Revision, SDBS/pension, 30 days paid leave, Enhancement of composite allowance, financial up gradation on completion of 12, 24 and 36 years of service etc. has generated resentment and discontentment among the G.D.S employees. It is pertinent to mention here that although discussions were held at Directorate, I am sorry to state that no progress is observed so far on any of the issues. Under the circumstances we are compelled to observe three phase fast Programme of agitation.
