In the report Com. Manoj Kumar Sharma had worked out in detail on the various aspects causing necessity of the important & significant C.E.C. Meeting in Bhubaneswar and, thereafter, welcomed the delegates, who came from various nooks and corner of the country. He gave an account of the latest scenario covering National situation, Central Government Employees & Worker’s Movement and Survey of India’s situation including latest position on Ministerial issues in a nutshell. He pointed out the negative role played by the present Surveyor General regarding settlement of genuine grievances of the Ministerial Staff members in particular and Survey of India employees in general. In his Secretary General Report he categorically mentioned that the Association has no hope for betterment during the tenure of present Surveyor General and hence need joint movement at CHQs level by all the Associations. He also appreciated the Bhubaneswar Branch to convene this prestigious meeting.
All CHQs office bearers viz. Com. Juliana R. Vincent, Com. Sanjay Kumar, Com. V. Rajkumar, Com. D.C.R. Karki, Com. Balraj Sahni, Com. R. Dutta & Com. Venugopal Nair, Com.P.K. Dash and Com.

Sujit Sinha, President, Ministerial Staff Association were read out. In which he extended his best wishes for the success of this CEC and expressed his inability to attend this meeting due to his family problems.
Further, on the directives from the Presidium, the Hony.

1. One Sided proposal from Secretary, DST for Merger of Survey of India with NATMO and our task.
Com. T.D. Banerjee explained the position to be taken in this important matter. He further informed the house that the DST Secretary’s one-sidedly plan over redesigning a neo modernization of Survey of India is vehemently opposed/countered by us. We are not unaware of the consequences or adverse effects of such proposed merger. He further told that all are well aware of this issue from the CHQ’s correspondence and joint resolutions passed by the all Associations at CHQ level. It was unanimously decided that a suitably strong resolution will be adopted for submission to the Ministry/SG and all other concerned. (The Same was passed and sent to Ministry/SG and all concern).
2.Immediate implementation of Cadre Restructuring in respect of Ministerial Staff as assured/informed by the DST vide latter No. SM/11/01/2008 dated 3rd June, 2008 received under SG’s letter No. J- 7253/612-MSA dated 3rd June,2008.
Com. T.D. Banerjee brought in details all the efforts put on by the CHQs in this matter before the house. All were in the opinion that this matter should be settled at the earliest. After the detailed discussion on the issue in the house both the COBs and delegates of attending branches reached the conclusion unanimously to adopt a suitable strong resolution and submit it to the Ministry/SG and all other concerned. (The same was passed and sent to Ministry/SG and all concern).
3.Grant of Higher Grade Pay to the E&AO & OS keeping in mind the fact that the post of Asstt. & OS cannot merge due to the functional requirement in the Department. &
4.Grant of Higher Grade Pay to the UDCs.

5. Holding of DPC for all Ministerial Promotional post. &
6-Filling up of all vacant post of LDCs/UDC/Asstt./OSs/E&AOs/ Hindi Translators/Assistant Director for smooth functioning

7-Immediate withdrawal of Technical Officer from Ministerial/Adm./Account Jobs & permanent posting of E&AO in each GDCs
The CHQ has already taken up this matter with the higher authorities so many times but due to non sanctioning of sufficient number of E&AOs posts some of the GDCs are running without E&AOs . The matter will again be taken up with the higher authorities.
8- Immediate settlement of all pending repatriation cases.
Almost all the cases have been settled already. However remaining cases which are not settled till date will be given due cognizance.
9- Holding of LDCE from LDC to UDC well in time
Every effort will be made by the CHQs for holding of LCE in time.

12- Arrangement of computers and common computerized programme for accounts work

13.APR Xerox copy handed over timely to all staff.
The matters related to the local administration, should always be tried to settle down by the branch first and non-settlement of the issue should be brought to the notice of the CHQs.
14. Honorarium for working vacant post of LDCs to E&AO/Grant of Honorarium for ICZM work
It was decided to request the Project Director for grant of honorarium to the employees assigned for the additional work of ICZM Project.
15. Same station posting in Promotion when post are available.
It was intimated that in the recent past some orders have been issued by the SG outside present posting station despite clear-cut vacancies.

It was further intimated that such type of one-sided decision of the Administration will be brought to the notice of the DST.
16. Increasing Grade Pay of LDC & UDC after completion of 3 years each
As the point is not covered under any rules, hence it was decided to drop this point.
17. To raise Grade Pay from Rs2800 to Rs.4200/- on grant of MACP to UDC
This point comes under the purview of the National Council (JCM) and the leaders of the JCM rightly submitted their logical demand to grant MACP in the promotional hierarchy. This matter is not settled till date.
18. As promotion to the post of OS involves no financial benefit, one should not be debarred from MACP
As per rule position, promotion from the post of Assistant to OS involves no financial benefit. So refusal in this promotion should not be considered for grant of MACP for Rs.4600.The matter will be taken up with SG if any branch feels any problem in this regard.
19. To give promotion upto the post of OS at the same station
The matter will be taken up with the SG according to its feasibility.
20. To take up to the issue of upgradation of merged scales with SG in the light of DOPT’s O.M.No.AB-14017/61/2008-Estt(RR)
This O.M. is merely a O.M. for determining minimum residency period from one grade pay to another and is not related regarding merger of scale etc.
21. Which officer has to act as reporting officer in case of Ministerial Staff
The matter has been discussed with the Addl.S.G. (HR)(SGO) and it was intimated to the CHQs that E&AO will be the Reporting officer for the Ministerial Staff members.
22. Merging of wings with the GDC’s existing in the same station
It was intimated that wings, at present are existing for the benefit of the employees as far as the concern of their posting at their home station. The matter will be taken up in future as and when it becomes necessary.
23. Nomenclature must be changed to LDC, UDC and Assistant
In view of DoPT orders which is clear, it has been decided to drop this point at present.
24 Revision rules/rate of OTA.
This item comes under the purview of the National Council (JCM) and the same is included in the agenda of the confederation for discussion with the Govt.
25. Unnecessary transfer/posting in the same post should be avoided
It was decided that the matter will be duly taken up with the higher authorities
26. Ad-hoc promotion of Ministerial Staff
It was intimated that as per Govt. guideline ad-hoc promotion will only be given when regular DPC cannot be convened. As the DPC for the Ministerial Staff are regularly convened, so the matter of ad-hoc promotion does not arise.
27. Present status of Court case regarding Asstt/HC
Com. P.K. Dash informed the house regarding progress/present status of the Court case of Asstt./HC and house was satisfied on the efforts put on by the Bhubaneswar Branch.
