delegates the importance of attending meetings and need for updating their
knowledge on various rules and regulations. He also invited delegates to
dedicate themselves to the organizational activities. Shri. G.C. Pareeda,
Patron and former Secretary General, a true Gandhian himself, expressed his
delight in staying in the famous Gandhi Peace Foundation. Shri. Pareeda, author
of various books in Oriya about Mahatma Gandhi was also translated some of

activities for the benefit of the employees along with their routine official
engagements.
After completing the
formalities and registration of delegates, the deliberations started at 2.00pm
with the report of the Secretary General. Since, the Treasurer could not attend
the meeting due to personnel reasons; the Secretary General also presented
accounts of the organization. He welcomed all the delegates and requested them
to contribute creatively in the deliberations. He also reminded the delegates
about the weak financial position of NAF and also submitted a proposal send by

system. After discussions the house unanimously passed Secretary General’s
report and Accounts.

sector wise reorganization of audit offices, Comprehensive re-structuring of

Hyderabad, appreciated the stand taken by NAF on the call of the NJCA to go on indefinite
strike from 11 July 2016. House also cautioned the AP unit not to observe such

Implementation of 7th Central Pay Commission
Government has decided to implement the much
awaited 7th Central Pay Commission recommendations with effect from
1st January 2016. Government notification is expected to be issued
before 27th July 2016. It is understood that the demand of IA&AD
employees for grant of GP 5400 after 4 years service in GP 4800 has been
included this time. Date of Annual increment will be on 1st January
and 1st July. Disputed issues viz.
fitment formula, minimum pay and allowances are referred to a sub-committee to
study and recommend within four months. Delay in payment of revised allowances
may result in huge loss to the employees.
