Deadline for govt employees to declare assets extended

Deadline for govt employees to declare assets extended

New Delhi, Jul 28 (PTI) Central government employees and NGOs receiving government funds now need not declare their assets by the deadline of July 31 as Parliament today approved an amendment in the Lokpal Act to extend the timeline.

The amendment to Section 44 of the Lokpal Act was approved by voice vote by the Rajya Sabha today, a day after the Lok Sabha did the same.

While moving the bill to amend the Lokpal Act for consideration of the House, Minister of State for Personnel Jitendra Singh said it is an immediate necessity and the provision will be examined in detail by a Parliamentary Standing Committee which will possibly submit its report before next session of Parliament.

7th Pay Commission MACP Changes in benchmark and withholding of increment

7th Pay Commission MACP changes – Benchmark for allowing MACP increased from ‘Good’ to ‘Very Good’. Annual Increments to be withheld in the first 20 years if not eligible for MACP


Govt accepts 7th Pay Commission’s proposal for increasing the benchmark for allowing MACP from “Good” to Very Good.
The other proposal of 7th Pay Commission that annual increment will be withheld in the first 20 years of service if an employee fails to attain the benchmark for MACP or promotion, has also been accepted by Govt.
These are two significant changes in the service conditions of Central Government Employees as their pay will be related to their performance to some extent after implementation of 7th Pay Commission.
Here is the text of acceptance by Govt with respect to changes made in MACP
S.No
Recommendation of the seventh central Pay Commission
Decision of the Government
1
MACP will continue to be administered at 10, 20 and 30 years as before. In the new Pay Matrix, the employee will move to immediate next Level in hierarchy.

MACPS will continue to be applicable to all employees up to Higher Administrative Grade (HAG) level except members of Organised Group ‘A’ Services. (Para 5.1.44 of the Report)
Accepted
2
Benchmark for performance appraisal for promotion and financial ungrdation under MACPS to be enhanced from “Good” to “Very Good”. (Para 5.1.45 of the Report)
Accepted
3
Withholding of annual increments in the case of those employees who are not able to meet the benchmark either for MACP or a regular promotion within the first 20 years of their service. (Para 5.1.46 of the Report)

7th CPC Fitment factor - incorrect pay matrix table.

7th CPC Fitment factor - incorrect pay matrix table. 

It is the really a good chance to change the fitment factor. Because of incorrect pay matrix table. Could any of the Union will step forward with it.

 (Click to enlarge image)
After the recommendations only govt fixed as 2.57. Then what is the use of same table for that. Without changing the table, it should not be reflected. Govt smartly played, but Union should raise que on this?

Cabinet decision to give common fitment factor to all. But even 2.57 2.62 2.67 index remains same in the appropriate levels. No effect in 2.57.

For Eg
👉Basic 13500 * 2.57 = 34695.. Next level as per index table 35400 (level 1)

Basic 13500 *2.62 = 35370..  Next level 35400 (level 1)

👉after one increment basic 13905*2.57= 35735.(Level 2)

Basic 13905* 2.62 = 36431(level 2)

No use or no change as per pay commission recommendation report. But as per cabinet decision, 2.57 multiplication factor common to all.

round off figure should be 34700 instead of 35400.
