To
All Constituents of NJCA
Dear Comrade,
The
NJCA met today and reviewed the discussion in the meeting of Empowered
Committee of Secretaries presided by the Cabinet Secretary on 1st March 2016 where-in the Cabinet Secretary had requested for more time to
arrive at conclusions on the charter of demands raised by the Staff Side.
The
meeting also considered the situation in the aftermath of the coming into
effect of the Code of Conduct with the declaration of election schedule in 5
State Assemblies and the fact that there will be polling on 11th April 2016 in West Bengal and Assam.
The
meeting, therefore, came to the conclusion that it will not be feasible for us
to stick to the date of strike as 11th April 2016.
Considering the fact that as per section 22 of the Industrial Dispute Act, 1947
with regard to the validity of the strike notice which is not more than six
weeks from the date of serving the strike notice, it was also felt that we may
have to revisit the issue of serving the notice for strike afresh.
Considering all the above aspects, the meeting took the following decisions”
1. The indefinite strike
shall commence from 6 am on 11th July 2016
2. The strike Notice
would be served on 9th June 2016.
3. Massive demonstrations
shall be held in all work place on 11th March 2016 in support of the
charter of demands and strike decision.
4. The decision of the
NJCA would be communicated to the Cabinet Secretary.
Detailed mobilization programmes would be given
later on.
With greetings,
Yours faithfully,
