Cadre Review in Revenue Department - Agitated staff threaten strike
IT is learnt that leaders of several associations of staff of the Customs and Central Excise Department met the CBEC Chairman yesterday and threatened to strike work on the 25th of November. Their main grouse is said to be that they were not consulted before the cadre review proposals were sent to the Ministry. Anyway the proposals are back with some objections and queries from the Integrated Finance Unit (IFU). It seems the Board has agreed to give copies of the proposals to the Associations and their suggestions will be duly considered. Officers in the field who are waiting for a promotion next week after the cadre review comes into effect can relax for some more time.
