AIFUCTO is pressing hard to implement revised UGC scales soon

The General Secretary, AIFUCTO has been camping in New Delhi for the past few days and has been intensively pursuing issues relating to implementation of revised UGC scales. He has been expressing the deep concerns of lakhs of college and university teachers all across India who demand the early and just implementation of the revised pay scales. The Gen.Secy. has been repeatedly pressing with the UGC, MHRD officials and the political leadership that the legitimate aspirations of the teachers should be fully reflected in the orders. The AIFUCTO has been lobbying with the MPs belonging to different political parties and they have been of substantial help in putting across the genuine aspirations of the teachers. The AIFUCTO has been striving to see that the expected order renders full justice to the servicesz put in by the teachers. AIFUCTO leaders from Haryana, Punjab, Madhya Pradesh,UP have been taking turns in helping the Gen. Secy. in this phase of his work. The Secretariat members are closely monitoring the situation and a NEC meeting will be convened very soon.

An open letter to P.M.  has also been published byAIFCTO. The text of the letter is published below.

Dr. Manmohan Singhji Camp: New Delhi Hon’ble Prime Minister of India New Delhi
Hon'ble Pradhan Mantri Ji, Greetings from the AIFUCTO, the Federation of organizations of university and college teachers of India. The AIFUCTO has been steadfastly working, with a great degree of commitment to uphold and strengthen national integration, a pluralistic India and quality higher education. I am now forced to submit to you that lakhs of university and college teachers of India, who have been anxiously awaiting the implementation of Revised Pay Scales for them, are deeply perturbed over the inordinate delay in this regard. Hon'ble Sir, you are aware that every other section of the employees- including Central Government employees following VI Pay Commission Report. Hon'ble Judges and the staff of all levels of Judiciary, public sector employees and others have already been given revised scales of pay, whereas in the case of implementing the Chadha Committee Report there is long delay and dithering. You are further aware Sir, that the revision of scales for college and university teachers involves two stages of implementation, with states taking their own time to execute the Central Govt. Orders.
I write to convey that 5 lakh college and university teachers all across our country are anxiously expecting your kind personal intervention leading to a very expeditious decision resulting in a fair, uniform and mandatory implementation all over India. We remember your kind intervention during our last Dharna Program in New Delhi leading to the solution.
As General Secretary of AIFUCTO I submit our deep expectations.
Yours truly,
Asok Barman General Secretary-AIFUCTOE-
