Uttarakhand UK Diploma Engineers denied benefit of 5400 grade pay in 10 years latest news update 2023
Latest Updated 20/06/2023: The government has flatly refused to accept the demand of Uttarakhand Diploma Engineers Federation to give benefit of 5400 grade pay in ten years of service. The government argues that this benefit cannot be given after the MACP system is implemented in Uttarakhand. Under this, instead of ten years, engineers will be able to get the benefit of 5400 grade pay in 13 years. However, the government has assured action on other demands.
A meeting of the federation was held on Monday under the chairmanship of Additional Chief Secretary Anandvardhan. In the meeting, the federation reiterated that the order to give the benefit of 5400 grade pay on ten years of service has been made in the year 2015 but it is not getting its benefit. On this, the government clarified that in the year 2017, the system of MACP has been implemented in Uttarakhand.
Under this, now the engineers are getting the benefit of the next pay scale on time. In such a situation, it will not be possible to directly give the benefit of 5400 grade pay leaving the middle pay scale. The benefit of 5400 grade pay which Diploma Engineers used to get after ten years, will now be available in the 13th year. It was assured by the government that apart from this other demands of the federation would be resolved.
Federation general secretary Mukesh Raturi told that the points discussed in the talks with the government will be put before the members of the federation. Then the opinion that will be formed in the meeting will be taken forward. Secretary Personnel Shailesh Bagoli, Secretary Finance Dilip Jawalkar, Additional Secretary Ganga Prasad, Federation President SS Chauhan, General Secretaries Mukesh Raturi, RC Sharma, Bharat Singh Dangi, Suresh Joshi, Anil Panwar etc were present in the talks.
