Cadre Review - Central Excise Staff on Agitation Path

YESTERDAY, in the CBEC Presidential awards function at New Delhi, the Finance Secretary RS Gujral stated that cadre review in CBEC is expected to be through within a period of one month. Of course, he did not mention through what .

But the employees are not convinced – they have been hearing such promises for the last two years.

So, now they are on an agitational path. Some associations have declared that they will be boycotting the Central Excise Day Celebrations on 24th February and walk out for two hours on Budget Day. There will be a full day walk out on 30th March 2012. Emulating the legislators?

In letters to the Ministers and Secretaries of Revenue, Expenditure, Personnel etc, the employees have kindly requested them to intervene and resolve the problem.
