Problems in Grade Pay of Library & Information Assistant

Dear Friends/Library Professionals,

Please look into the Matter of Library & Information Assistant GRADE PAY, presently in ASSISTANTS, UDC (Upper Division Clerk) are getting Rs. 4600/- Grade Pay and DRIVERS are also in Rs. 4200/- Grade Pay But Library & Information Assistants of the many Govet, Organization/Inst. & Autonomous Bodies of Govts. are getting Grade pay of Rs. 4200/- only. Dears, We have double qualifications i. e. Graduation/Post Graduation + Degree/Master Degree in library Sc, but we are getting Rs. 4200/- Grade Pay. This matter in pending in the Anomaly Committee of 6th CPC from a long time and need to approval for the 4600 grade pay with effect from 01-01-2006. We should reach for the concerned committee and the departments for the approval of grade pay of 4600. Friends, we should unite on this matter and please write an e-mail to Secretary, Ministry of Culture regarding above said subject.

[इस केस को हमें मिलकर साल्व कराना हे इस में हम सभी की भलाई हे वर्ना यह मामला हमेशा पेंडिंग रहेंगा और हमें नुक्सान उठाना पड़ेगा Anomaly Committee of 6th CPC की मीटिंग हर कुछ अंतराल के बाद होती रहती हे हमें यह मामला ऊपर अधिकारियों तक उठाना होगा और इस केस को जल्द निपटाना होगा ताकि हमें ४६०० का grade pay of 4600. 01-01-2006. से मिल सके Thanking you, With regards,

Dear Janab. Iqbal Ahmad Ansari

As I understand, the pay scale for Library & Information Assistant was Rs.5000 - Rs 8000 according to 5th. CPC. As I understand that several pay scales have been merged and not only pre-revised Scale of Rs. 5000 - Rs. 8000 even pre-revised Scale of Rs. 6500 -  Rs.10,500 (which has been the scales of Section Officers too; (Gazetted Group B cadre) had been clubbed together and had a grade pay of Rs. 4200. Later, that particular one was rectified (presumably because the Section Officers constitute a very critical role in Government functionary and making them anguished could have been extremely risky for the Higher Authorities!!)  are and Rs.5000 - Rs 8000 & Rs.5500 -Rs.9000 have been clubbed together and for both the pay scales same grade Pay of Rs. 4200/- was ordered.

I understand that the matter is quite disappointing for the incumbents but this is the scenario of our government bureaucracy.

For your information I would like to mention that in many Govt. & Autonomous Organizations, the pay scale remained Rs. 4500 - Rs.7000 and now they are getting grade pay of Rs. 2800/- only.

I have no idea why our great Professional Associations are not collectively approaching the government for creating a small cell within the framework of NKC (National Knowledge Commission) to review the qualification requirement and befitting pay scales for Library people.

Sincerely,

Siddhartha S. Ray, Calcutta
