Comrades! Finally the central government announced constitution of 8th CPC , just before the Bihar Assembly election.

Before Delhi Assembly election in the month of January declared 8th CPC and assured to give effect from 1-1-2026.

After 9 months , again before the Bihar Assembly election another announcement with name of the chairman and members of 8th CPC, with giving 18 months time.

If the 8th CPC submits its recommendation after 18 months , certainly Central Government may take its own time to accept the recommendation .

It may be dragged to the next Lok Sabha Election.

Regarding details of Terms of Reference, though the official order is not yet released, as per PIB reports, five points as Terms of References high lighted.
All the five points are very negative directions ( warning) to the Pay Commission.
With such types of terms of reference, nothing positive can be expected. Pay commission can not work freely.

Particularly pensioners will be affected badly.

Our apprehension became true.

Pay commission directed to examine ( TOR serial III) unfunded cost of non contributory pension scheme , that means our to examine our OLD pension scheme.

We may wait for the declaration of official details of Term of References for 8th CPC.
Also to watch the reaction from JCM - Staff side.

NCCPA/ FCPA have to consider the matter seriously and to decide future course of action.

It was understanding of the meeting that the decision would be announced after the meeting with the Secretary, Posts scheduled on 25 April. But meantime most surprisingly the meeting has been deferred to 1 May 2025 and that too for one hour only. So in these circumstances we have no option but to announce our decision as below.

Dear Comrades,

Department of Post is undergoing major transformation, accordingly order's relating to major structural and functional changes in various wings of the Department as per their own convenience are being issued by the Department at the back of the Staff side . All such retrograde order's are having cascading effects on cross section of Postal Employees and would be detrimental to the interest of employees in future. Associations/Federations have brought to the notice of the Department, their reservations/ apprehensions on all such retrograde order's from time to time, but it had not been acceded to , by the Department. Although several rounds of meeting had been held but net results of such meetings were a big Cipher, all our efforts have gone in vain.
Postal Joint Council of Action (NFPE, FNPO & GDS unions) decided to go for organisational course of Action and had given a clarion call for phasewise Agitational Program's culminating into an indefinite strike, two phases of which have been successfully carried out.
The 3rd phase of the Agitational Program is on 25th February , a Dharna at Circle level is to be observed. All Circle Secretaries are requested to reach to each member , educate them about the circumstantial need of the United movement and convince them to join the Agitational Program's. The time has come for a decisive Action to protect our identity and Save our future , there is no short cut for success. Make the circle level Dharna a grand success.
STRUGGLE IS THE RIGHT PATH !
WE ARE ON THE RIGHT PATH !!
