Secretary, All India Railwaymen’s Federation and Secretary, Staff
Side(JCM), Shri Shiva Gopal Mishra, welcomed decision of the Union
Cabinet for restoring rates of House Rent Allowance @ 10%,20% and 30% to
the Central Government Employees covered from levels 1 to 3, “however,
demand of the Staff Side(JCM) for similar rate of HRA to other Group `C’
staff should also have been acceded to”, he added.
Shri Mishra applauded the decision of
the Central Government for amending 50% DA barrier for increasing HRA @
09%, 18% and 27% when DA exceeds 25% as also @ 10%, 20% and 30% on
Dearness Allowance exceeding 50%. He further added that, “similar
principle could have been adopted on other allowances which are DA
indexed”.

for restoring 34 allowances, particularly from the Railways 12
allowances, including Breakdown Allowance, Nursing Allowance, Trip
Allowance, Additional Allowance, Cycle Allowance as also Special
Allowance to Trackmen, Section Controllers and Loco Pilot (Goods) and
Sr. Passenger Guards on enhanced rates.
Shri Mishra, however, emphasized that,
main demand of the Central Government Employees for increasing Minimum
Wage and Fitment Formula as well as Guaranteed Minimum Pension for the
Central Government Employees, appointed on or after 01.01.2004, should
also be considered by the government sympathetically and orders to this
effect be issued at an earliest in view of the widespread anxiety and
discontentment prevailing among the Central Government Employees.
He appreciated the government for increasing the rate of Fixed Medical Allowance from Rs.500 p.m. to Rs.1000 p.m.
Shri Mishra further said that, Staff
Side(JCM) is thankful to the government for increasing various
allowances for Nursing Staff and extending Patient Care Allowance to
Ministerial Staff working in the hospitals, and at the same time hopeful
for increasing the same for other categories of staff also.
