Mamata Banerjee yesterday met representatives of all the 11 government employees’ unions, including the Left-backed co-ordination committee, and asked them to work impartially and irrespective of party colours. “We are like a family. Give me some time to organise things here. Be patient,” she told the employees.
She also assured the employees to form a "Pay Review Committee" to address the anomaly of pay in result of the implementation of the revised pay structure. It was a long outstanding demand of the employees and they may hope to get some relief by this way.
The union leaders requested an “interface” with the government so that government employees could express their views.
Mamata said she had decided to meet representatives of the unions every three months. The union members couldn’t recall the last time they had a similar meeting with a chief minister.
