ANSWER
MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF RAILWAYS (SHRI ADHIR RANJAN
CHOWDHURY)
(a) and (b): All India Railwaymen’s Federation (A.I.R.F.) and
National Federation of Indian Railwaymen (N.F.I.R.) have made numerous demands.
Some of the demands are setting up of VIIth Central Pay Commission, abolition
of New Pension Scheme, merger of Dearness Allowance with Pay, filling up of all
vacant posts, implementation of the report of Joint Committee for career growth
of Track Maintainer, reduction in duty hours of staff. While A.I.R.F. have
indicated that if their grievances are not resolved in a time bound programme,
the Federation would be compelled to conduct strike ballot as a first step.
N.F.I.R. have decided to give a time of four months to the Government for
satisfactorily settling their demands failing which the Federation will be
compelled to give call for ‘Indefinite Strike’ on Railways.
(c): Some of the demands like setting up of VIIth Central Pay
Commission, abolition of New Pension Scheme, Merger of Dearness Allowance with
Pay which are not within the purview of Ministry of Railways are being considered
for referring to concerned Ministries/ Departments. In accordance with
Government’s policy, other demands of the Federations are given due
consideration within the framework of existing rules and financial constraints,
and action as considered necessary is taken.
