Continuing its efforts, on 5th August 2015,
a NOINO delegation led by Shri Prakash Javadekar, Union Minister & President
NOINO met Finance Minister Shri Arun Jaitley to break deadlock on wage
revision and one more option for pension.
The delegation consisted of Shri Ganesh
Kamath, Chief Advisor; Shri Dattaraj Prabhukhanolkar, General Secretary;
Shri S. K. Saini, EC member & Shri Yashpal Singh, Zonal Secretary, NZ
unit.
Meeting was essentially an attempt to break
the stalemate on the wage revision & the pension option issues. We have
expressed emphatically that LIC employees deserve a wage revision that is
commensurate with its paying capacity. We firmly expressed our opposition to
our linking with the banking industry. Jaitleyji patiently heard us &
assured to look into the matter. The delegation also submitted memorandums on
the issues of 5 days' week & anomaly after computer increment.
The delegation also met Amitji Shah,
President BJP once again (after our meeting on 9th July) as in the previous
meeting he had invited us to Delhi for further talks. We once again urged
Amitji to ensure the delinking of LIC from the Banking Industry as also to
reign in the bureaucrats who were scuttling the just demands of LIC employees.
NOINO
will continue to make efforts to resolve the pending issues of the LIC
employees. We also appeal to all the employees to follow all the agitation
programmes given by the joint front.
