Soon, non-salaried individuals will have the option to save for their retirement with authorised fund managers. .rightDiv2{float:right;position:relative;width:220px;BORDER:#787962 1px solid;padding:5px} The government has asked the Pension Fund Regulatory & Development Authority (PFRDA) to open the retirement scheme — which has so far been confined to central government employees — to the self-employed and those in the unorganised sector. “We have asked PFRDA to frame a scheme (that will be applicable) for any citizen,” Finance Minister P Chidambaram said at a function organised by the National Securities & Depositories Ltd (NSDL) to launch record-keeping services for the pension business. At present, non-salaried people do not have any scheme to save for their retirement needs. For those who are members of the Employees Provident Fund Organisation, there is the option of the Employees Pension Scheme, which is facing a deficit of over Rs 20,000 crore. The non-salaried also have the option of buying annuity schemes from insurance companies that earn them a monthly pension. Under the new scheme, subscribers will be able to receive 40 per cent of the amount in hand once they retire. The remaining 60 per cent will be invested in annuities offered by insurance companies that will earn them a monthly income. Subscribers to this scheme will have to option to change their fund managers and the investment pattern during the course of the pension scheme.
The government was earlier planning to expand the scheme to self-employed people after the passage of the PFRDA Bill that will provide legal backing to the regulator and enable it to notify investment and other norms. Though the Bill has been approved by the Parliamentary standing committee, opposition from the Left parties had meant that the Centre has been unable to introduce it in Parliament, after incorporating the changes that were suggested. Although the regulator is still working on the blueprint for the scheme for individuals, the thinking within government is to allow fund managers to offer retirement plans by signing agreements with PFRDA. The agreement will prescribe the investment norms, depending on the scheme that individuals opt for, and any deviation from the guidelines will attract stiff penalties, said an official associated with the development. Sources added that the scheme, first suggested by PFRDA Chairman D Swarup around 12 months ago, has been discussed with the law ministry which has concurred with the finance ministry’s assessment that a statutory backing may not be essential to kick off the scheme. For Central government employees, PFRDA has signed agreements with the three fund managers — State Bank of India, Life Insurance Corporation and UTI — that allow up to 15 per cent of the corpus to be invested in equities. Once the scheme is opened up for individuals, more investment options are likely to be thrown in, including a complete debt scheme. The default option could be a scheme where the investment profile will change from equity-biased to debt-focussed as a subscriber to the scheme ages. At present, fund managers are managing the Centre’s corpus of Rs 1,500 crore, which could touch Rs 4,000 crore over the next few months as the 19 states sign agreements with NSDL (the central recordkeeping agency), the three designated fund managers, Stock Holding Corporation of India (the custodian) and a trustee bank. Once the scheme is approved by the government, the regulator may throw open the business to more fund managers. In addition to providing long-term savings and a social security net, the fund managers will emerge as some of the largest domestic institutional investors in the equity as well as the debt markets in the coming years. The regulator has also approached the finance ministry to review the tax benefits available for investment in pension schemes. At present, investment in pension is taxed at the time of withdrawal while EPFO and many small savings schemes are exempted from taxes at the time of investment, during accumulation and at the time of withdrawal. “That’s an issue that needs to be addressed,” Swarup said at the NSDL function. The need for a new law arose on several counts including the fact that the number of companies has expanded from 30,000 in 1956 to over 700,000 at last count.

Excerpts from Guruji’s blessings on Om TV Tuticorin
Om Parashakti Namo Namaha, dear bhakta koti, satsanga premi bhakta janaha, my salutations to all of you, good and bad things do not come from others, it is a result of your own sat karma and dushkarma . Each day from the time we get up till the next day (even in our sleep) we do lot of karma through our thoughts, actions, speech, etc and they can be good or bad. The almighty gives us seven chances to rectify our mistakes through seven janmas but we hardly realise this and blame him for everything and never thank him for the rewards and blessings he showers on us making our lives further miserable. One thing is for sure that the supreme power you may call it by any name is the most kind and benevolent energy which is ready to forgive our minor mistakes but we continue to do sin and sink ourselves deeper into worldly pleasures and continue harm others by our deeds and speech and actions. Just remember whatever we do would continue to be with us through our generations and our own janmas until and unless we do some good deeds to wipe off our bad debts it can not be written off. We got this human form due to our performance in our previous births but can be relegated to 84,00000 yonis or forms ranging from plants, insects, reptiles, mammals, etc if we do not improve our score. We can do puja, chanting, prayers, etc in whatever form or religion we may practice to get salvation and escape from this vicious circle of life and death. You can do annandhanam i.e distribution of food to the needy, do some charity, help others in need, be courteous, speak pleasant language, spread love, do not differentiate between people, there are thousands of things which does not costs you anything but which only you can do. So my dear devotees the solution lies with you as you are the problem. Mend your ways and make your life and others life happy and prosperous.

THE FUTURE OF INDIA
Children of India, I am here to speak to you today about some practical things, and my object in reminding you about the glories of the past is simply this. Many times have I been told that looking into the past only degenerates and leads to nothing, and that we should look to the future. That is true. But out of the past is built the future. Look back, therefore, as far as you can, drink deep of the eternal fountains that are behind, and after that, look forward, march forward and make India brighter, greater, much higher than she ever was. Our ancestors were great. We must first recall that. We must learn the elements of our being, the blood that courses in our veins; we must have faith in that blood and what it did in the past; and out of that faith and consciousness of past greatness, we must build an India yet greater than what she has been. There have been periods of decay and degradation. I do not attach much importance to them; we all know that. Such periods have been necessary. A mighty tree produces a beautiful ripe fruit. That fruit falls on the ground, it decays and rots, and out of that decay springs the root and the future tree, perhaps mightier than the first one. This period of decay through which we have passed was all the more necessary. Out of this decay is coming the India of the future; it is sprouting, its first leaves are already out; and a mighty, gigantic tree, the Urdhvamula, is here, already beginning to appear; and it is about that that I am going to speak to you.
With the giving up of quarrels all other improvements will come. When the life-blood is strong and pure, no disease germ can live in that body. Our life-blood is spirituality. If it flows clear, if it flows strong and pure and vigorous, everything is right; political, social, any other material defects, even the poverty of the land, will all be cured if that blood is pure. For if the disease germ be thrown out, nothing will be able to enter into the blood.
I do not mean to say that other things are not necessary. I do not mean to say that political or social improvements are not necessary, but what I mean is this, and I want you to bear it in mind, that they are secondary here and that spirituality is primary.
Swami Vivekananda.
Discoveries: Cancer patients try alternatives; older neighborhoods good for you; Vitamin C used against cancer
HealthDay News, New York Times News Service August 10, 2008
Patients turn to alternatives
As many as 61 percent of cancer patients use complementary therapies such as prayer, relaxation, meditation and massage, researchers from the American Cancer Society report.
For the study, published in the Sept. 1 issue of Cancer, researchers collected data on 4,139 cancer survivors. Of these, 61.4 percent of the patients used prayer; 44.3 percent used relaxation techniques; 42.4 percent used faith/spiritual healing; 40.1 percent used nutritional supplements such as vitamins; 15 percent used meditation; 11.2 percent used massage; and 9.7 percent participated in support groups.
On the other hand, only 0.4 percent of the patients used hypnosis; 1 percent used biofeedback therapy; and 1.2 percent used acupressure or acupuncture.
The benefits of these therapies are still unclear, researchers said.
Thanks to western medical science, the common perception is that healing is associated just with the removal of symptoms. But actually healing implies returning to a state of alignment with our true selves. This is exactly what Reiki is all about.
Reiki is basically a Japanese form of healing and its popularity is mushrooming day-by-day across the globe. What makes it stand out among all healing practices is that it imbibes elements of just about each one of them, namely: spiritual healing, auras, chakra balancing, meditation, naturopathy and homeopathy. Reiki is a Japanese word derived from two words- ‘rei’ meaning ‘free passage’ and ‘ki’ meaning ‘vital life force energy’.
Reiki is believed to have originated in Tibet about thousands of years ago. Seers in the Orient studied energies in detail and came forward with a system of sounds and symbols for universal healing energies. This formed the basis for the root system. The credit for rediscovering this root system in the mid-to late 1800s goes to Dr. Mikao Usui, a Japanese Christian educator from Kyoto. He taught Reiki in Japan until his death around 1893. In the present day, the two major forms of Reiki being practiced are: “the Usui System of Natural Healing” and “the Radiance Technique”.
The technique involves the Reiki practitioner gently resting his/her hands over the patient’s body in a series of hand positions in such a manner that covers the recipient’s head, trunk, legs and feet. A flow of energy through the practitioner’s hand to the client’s body occurs. Reiki healing energy functions by providing a means to balance Auras- the human energy fields, and Chakras- the energy centres, to create conditions requisite for the body’s healing system to work properly.
Reiki is a very powerful and beneficial form of healing. Reiki is useful in treating serious illnesses as well as minor ones. For e.g. sports injuries, cuts, burns, internal diseases, emotional disorders, and stress-related illnesses.
Some of the major benefits it provides to the receiver are listed below:
• A deep state of relaxation.
• Significant reduction in stress.
• Removal of symptoms.
• Aids spiritual growth and emotional clearing.
• Overall well-being.
Till now, Reiki appears to be a safe option. It induces a deep sense of tranquility and relaxation in the clients, so much so that they might also feel warm, tingly, sleepy and refreshed. As far as side effects of Reiki are concerned, none have been reported so far.
A person, who is interested in practicing Reiki, does not require any special credentials to receive training. The important thing to be borne in mind is that it must be learned from a person who is immensely experienced at it.
To sum up, Reiki is a simple, non-invasive, natural healing therapy that works by gently balancing life energies and thus improving the overall health of the patient.

A method of healing that is not medicine
The article entitled “Faith and Healing” in last Sunday’s health section, while thought provoking, contained some factual inaccuracies. Foremost was the statement that “there’s no solid proof of a causal relationship between religion/spirituality and improved health.”
The very teaching and religion of Christ Jesus was indisputable evidence of the effect of a spiritual sense of life and spirit on the health and morals of those who were open to those teachings. The Gospel accounts are full of healing; Jesus instructed his disciples to do the same. And they did.
That evidence from the Bible has been brought forth today in the teachings of Mary Baker Eddy, a native of New Hampshire, in her book, “Science and Health” with Key to the Scriptures. She discovered, in 1866, what it was that produced these marvelous results.
She saw that real medicine was in mind, God, and therefore it was wholly spiritual. This discovery was based in the scriptures and born out in her life and works when she healed the same way that Christ Jesus expected and commanded his followers to do. He said, “Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” This is what he did, and he did it without material medicine.
Eddy discovered that truth and taught how this could be done, and her followers have been doing the same healing work since she started teaching it in 1868.
Her book teaches it today, and the last 100 pages of that book are accounts of the most troublesome diseases that were healed without medicine of any kind by people who read the book.
Faith, coupled with a spiritual understanding of God, brings healing. This faith and understanding are not at odds with science, but are at the core of Christian Science.
“The prayer that reforms the sinner and heals the sick is an absolute faith that all things are possible to God – a spiritual understanding of Him, an unselfed love.” (Science and Health, p. 1).
I thought your readers would want to know that there is a causal relationship between spirituality and health, and that there is a method of healing that departs from material medicine.
Douglas Keith
Amherst
The FACTS of the healing that transcends human medicine are those who have been thus healed. The honest among practitioners of human medicine will and DO aknowledge these living and actual facts.
Christian Science, while a worthy practitioner of the higher healing, by no means possesses it.
I do not discredit any method or level of healing, merely say that the lower must inevitably bow to the higher.
Reiki: an art of healing
Dr. P.A.Abraham Professor of English Faculty of Education Sana’a University abbyraju@y.net.ye
Reiki (‘Ray-key’) is a Japanese word for Universal Life Energy. It is an ancient healing art rediscovered more than hundred years ago by Dr. Mikao Usui, a Japanese Priest. It is defined as the power, which acts and lives in all created matter. This energy is everywhere in the universe and in abundance.
In this system Reiki practitioners or channels can pass on Universal Life Energy to themselves and others thereby energizing and healing them. Once a person has been opened up to become a “channel” of Reiki, life energy will flow through his/her hands of its own accord and he/she will retain this ability for the rest of the life. This energy can then be passed on to self or others simply by laying on hands. It is a simple “touch and heal” system. In fact, we are all born with this Universal life energy, but that our negative reaction to life events causes us to become less open with the result that the natural flow of energy is less pure and less available. Science recognizes the fact that the so-called solid objects are just densely vibrating energy that in fact there is no solid matter. Hermetic science also states “all is energy”. Energy is all around us and inside us as well. We constantly react and respond to energy without realizing it. Around us is an energy field which is referred to as “aura’. The aura has mainly three levels; emotional, mental and spiritual.
The atonement process of Reiki enables one to get in touch with the true essence. We tend to feel this essence or core self at times in our lives when we are in a heightened state of awareness. Reiki can provide the boost to help you develop that sense of awareness and with a daily practice of self-treatment, enables this awareness to grow. But Reiki needs a receptive ear. Our inner voice is the natural spokesperson for the wisdom of Universal Life Force Energy.
How does Reiki work?
The body is in fact energy vibrating at a certain frequency, and all its frequencies have their own natural flow. However, when we make a judgment about something (rather than discernment), the judgment gets stored in the cellular structure of the body in the form of a physical and/or emotional block. Emotions are a reaction to our thoughts or judgments about people and life’s situations. Since they distort the natural frequencies, negative thoughts or judgments are experienced as dense or uncomfortable vibrations. Such thoughts may turn into headaches, tension, stomachaches, ulcers etc. Anger, jealousy, greed, guilt, grief and other negative emotions can cause physical ailments. Plato has rightly pointed out that if you want to heal your body you must first heal your mind.
Through constant practice Reiki may actually heal all of these blockages by exposing them to the much higher vibratory frequency of Universal Life Force Energy, which can then penetrate and dissolve any blockages. Thus Reiki heals by calming the mind and raising the life force energy in the body. When we treat ourselves or someone with Reiki, we do this by laying our hands gently on various parts of the body with our fingers closed. We soon feel a kind of sensation in our palms like something flowing, warmth, pulling tingling etc. Each person reacts in a different way to Reiki and no general rule can be said to exist. The most common experience during a treatment is a sense of peace and relaxation and some even fall asleep. The effects of Reiki can be listed as follows:
• Reiki supports the body’s natural ability to heal itself. When practiced regularly it develops good health and resistance to sickness
• Reiki works on all levels- physical, emotional, mental and spiritual
• Reiki loosens up blocked energy and promotes the flow of energy thereby, providing a total relaxation
• Reiki energizes and balances body’s energy
• Reiki cleanses the poisons and toxins from the body
• Reiki is an extremely pleasant, holistic method of healing
Characteristics of a Reiki Treatment
• Reiki is always drawn and never given. Do not take credit or blame for the final result
• Reiki is an intelligent energy and follows its own logic, knowing where and to what extent it is required. Therefore it is not necessary to diagnose before treatment.
• There is no overdose of Reiki and it can never do any damage as it only flows in the area and quantity required by the recipient.
• No special kind of power or ability or knowledge is required for Reiki. It is simple and natural enough for anybody to learn and make use of.
• Reiki is passed only on request. Not without asking, except in case of family members and children, accidents and emergency.
Reiki Treatment
• Wear loose dresses comfortable for sitting or lying positions. Remove watches, Jewelry, rings, belts, wallets etc. Relax your mind and body and close your eyes.
• Wash hands before and after treatment
• You can sit in a comfortable position or lie down on a blanket or any sheet. Avoid sitting directly on ground. As far as possible keep the surrounding peaceful and serene and if possible, make a regular place for practicing Reiki.
• Start with an Attitude of Gratitude (Thank God for all the Blessings that you have, Thank yourself, Thank the Cosmic energy, Thank your parents and teachers…)
• Start with keeping your hands in cup shape, gently on various positions on your body. Follow from top to bottom wherever you feel the need of energy. Keep your hand for 3-5 minutes on each position. Problematical areas can be treated for more time (10-15) minutes, as required. If you know the positions of “Chakras”*on the body, try to give reiki on them.
• At the end once again thank yourself and Reiki.
Five Principles of Reiki
The first principle is: “ Just for today I will live with an attitude of gratitude”.
If we try to follow an attitude of gratitude, life becomes a never-ending expression of abundance. It is the tendency of human beings to concentrate on what we don’t have. Then we continue to experience the state of not having. As the saying goes “Count your Blessings’. If we begin to focus on all the good things that we have; our family, the beauty of nature, your education, your talents etc. a positive shift in our life will begin to occur. The greatest challenge is to maintain an attitude of gratitude when things go wrong.
The second Principle is: “Just for today, I will not worry”.
It is said that worry, hurry and curry are the root causes of all illness. Worry is a signal, which shows how stuck you are in the ego and its attachment to having things its way. It is one thing to have concern about our loved ones, or about taking care of business properly etc. It is quite another to keep on worrying about all these. Worrying over the past is also futile, as the past never exists. If you regret something you did in the past, feel your remorse fully until it dissipates and move on. Do not carry any guilt feelings, which are negative. If we brood over some past grievances, we start generating and experiencing negative emotions associated with the event, and though the event may be long gone, the emotions are refreshed and regenerated. The more we brood on this, more negative energy is generated. Each experience, whether good or bad should be considered as an opportunity.
The third Principle is: “Just for today I will not anger”.
Anger arises when the ego notices that things are not happening as you wish. An angry person generates negative vibration not only on himself but also in others. When you are angry, your blood pressure goes up and the whole atmosphere gets affected. The best emotional option is: ‘letting go’ of judging yourself and ‘the other’. It is really healing.
The fourth Principle is: “Just for today I will do my work honestly”.
Honesty is not only the best policy; it is also the safest policy. This principle addresses the need to choose a vocation, which helps you grow, and gives you a sense of fulfillment and you do the job that is allotted to you with commitment and sincerity. It also means that you need not be afraid of speaking the truth when required. To be true to yourself also means that we need to take time for ourselves, not be interrupted by anyone when you wish to be alone and it is essential for maintaining a peaceful existence. Eventually, the more we are willing to give to ourselves, the easier it will be t give to others in a natural way. Life is simpler, when we are true to ourselves.
The fifth Principle is: “Just for today I will show love and respect for all living beings”
Plants, animals, birds along with human beings are all parts of God’s creation and it is very important that we love and respect all living things. The weaker a living being is, the more sympathy and kindness it deserves.
The five Reiki principles given by Dr Usui, in fact, help us to improve the quality of our lives, even if you do not practice reiki. Dr. Usui probably recognized that, if used wisely, they would remove the cause of suffering and disease. If followed faithfully, these principles will lead to a more positive outlook towards life because, though they appear to be mere concepts and beliefs, they are totally wholesome and life affirming when integrated with daily practice of reiki.
*The word “Chakra” is derived from Sanskrit and means “Wheel”. Chakras are spiral energy centers, which exist in subtle energy body of ours and are responsible for the flow of energy throughout the body. It is said that there are seven major chakras and many minor chakras in our body. The seven major chakras are Root Chakra, Hara Chakra, Solar Plexus, Heart Chakra, Throat Chakra, Third Eye Chakra, and Crown Chakra. The chakras also correspond to mental and emotional states of a person and decide various aspects of ones behavior and development. A blockage in the energy flow of the chakra and excess energy can lead to imbalance and disharmony on physical, emotional, mental and spiritual values. These disturbances are often caused by psychological stress and trauma and painful experiences or excess of joy.

Therapeutic
Constant Remembrance is the ultimate therapeutic facility available to us. Because when you are remembering the Master, you cannot think of anything else, remember anything else. I make a very bold statement, a very bold claim, that it is the ultimate therapeutic measure beyond which there can be nothing else. Why? Because it is a Master we are remembering. It is a person with whom we have associated, whom we have loved, love still, in whom we have faith, who has performed so many things out of the ordinary, the most important being the transformation we see in ourselves.

Keep Walking…..
Jus to check this out……
The Organs of your body have their sensory touches at the bottom of your foot, if you massage these points you will find relief from aches and pains as you can see the heart is on the left foot.
Typically they are shown as points and arrows to show which organ it connects to.
It is indeed correct since the nerves connected to these organs terminate here.
This is covered in great details in Acupressure studies or textbooks.
God created our body so well that he thought of even this. He made us walk so that we will always be pressing these pressure points and thus keeping these organs activated at all times.
So, keep walking…
Good one. Don’t miss the attachments

Headache, body ache, heart system, arthritis, fast heart beat, epilepsy, excess fatness, bronchitis asthma, TB, meningitis, kidney and urine diseases, vomiting, ga str itis, diarrhea, piles, diabetes, constipation, all eye diseases, womb, cancer and men str ual diso rd ers, ear nose and throat diseases.
METHOD OF TREATMENT
1. As you wake up in the morning before brushing teeth, drink 4 x 160ml glasses of water …..interesting
2. Brush and clean the mouth but do not eat or drink anything for 45 minutes
3. After 45 minutes you may eat and drink as normal.
4. After 15 minutes of breakfast, lunch and dinner do not eat or drink anything for 2 hours
5. Those who are old or sick and are unable to drink 4 glasses of water at the beginning may commence by taking little water and gradually increase it to 4 glasses per day.
6. The above method of treatment will cure diseases of the sick and others can enjoy a healthy life.
The following list gives the number of days of treatment required to cure/control/reduce main diseases:
1. High Blood Pressure – 30 days
2. Gastric – 10 days
3. Diabetes – 30 days
4. Constipation – 10 days
5.. Cancer – 180 days
6. TB – 90 days
7. Arthritis patients should follow the above treatment only for 3 days in the 1st week, and from 2nd week onward s – daily.
This treatment method has no side effects, however at the commencement of treatment you may have to urinate a few times.
It is better if we continue this and make this procedure as a routine work in our life.
Drink Water and Stay healthy and Active.
This makes sense. The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals .not cold water. Maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating!!! Nothing to lose, everything to gain…
For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you.
It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed . It will slow down the digestion.
Once this ‘sludge’ reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.
A serious note about heart attacks: Women should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting.
Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line.
You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack.
Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms.
60% of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up.
Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let’s be careful and be aware. The more we know, the better chance we could survive…

Provided further that in cases where a Government servant has been placed in a higher pay scale between 1.1.2006 and the date of notification of these Rules on account of promotion, upgradation of pay scale etc., the Government servant may elect to switch over to the revised pay structure from the date of such promotion, upgradation, etc.

6. Exercise of Option –
(1) The option under the provisos to Rule 5 shall be exercised in writing in the form appended to the Second Schedule so as to reach the authority mentioned in sub rule (2) within three months of the date of publication of these rules or where an existing scale has been revised by any order made subsequent to that date, within three months of the date of such order.
Provided that –
(i) in the case of a Government servant who is, on the date of such publication or, as the case may be, date of such order, out of India on leave or deputation or foreign service or active service, the said option shall be exercised in writing so as to reach the said authority within three months of the date of his taking charge of his post in India; and

Note 3 – Persons who were on earned leave or any other leave on 1.1.2006 which entitled them to leave salary will be allowed the benefits of this rule.
7. Fixation of initial pay in the revised pay structure:
(1) The initial pay of a Government servant who elects, or is deemed to have elected under sub-rule (3) of rule 6 to be governed by the revised pay structure on and from the 1st day of January, 2006, shall, unless in any case the President by special order otherwise directs, be fixed separately in respect of his substantive pay in the permanent post on which he holds a lien or would have held a lien if it had not been suspended, and in respect of his pay in the officiating post held by him, in the following manner, namely :-
(A) in the case of all employees:-
(i) the pay in the pay band/pay scale will be determined by multiplying the existing basic pay as on 1.1.2006 by a factor of 1.86 and rounding off the resultant figure to the next multiple of 10.
(ii) if the minimum of the revised pay band/ pay scale is more than the amount arrived at as per (i) above, the pay shall be fixed at the minimum of the revised pay band/pay scale;
Provided further that:-
Where, in the fixation of pay, the pay of Government servants drawing pay at two or more consecutive stages in an existing scale gets bunched, that is to say, gets fixed in the revised pay structure at the same stage in the pay band, then, for every two stages so bunched, benefit of one increment shall be given so as to avoid bunching of more than two stages in the revised running pay bands. For this purpose, the increment will be calculated on the pay in the pay band. Grade pay would not be taken into account for the purpose of granting increments to alleviate bunching.
In the case of pay scales in higher administrative grade (HAG) in the pay band PB-4, benefit of increments due to bunching shall be given taking into account all the stages in different pay scales in this grade. In the case of HAG+ scale, benefit of one increment for every two stages in the pre-revised scale will be granted in the revised pay scale.
If by stepping up of the pay as above, the pay of a Government servant gets fixed at a stage in the revised pay band/ pay scale (where applicable) which is higher than the stage in the revised pay band at which the pay of a Government servant who was drawing pay at the next higher stage or stages in the same existing scale is fixed, the pay of the latter shall also be stepped up only to the extent by which it falls short of that of the former.
(iii) The pay in the pay band will be determined in the above manner. In addition to the pay in the pay band, grade pay corresponding to the existing scale will be payable.
Note – Illustration 1 on the above is provided in the Explanatory Memorandum to these Rules.
(B) In the case of employees who are in receipt of special pay/allowance in addition to pay in the existing scale which has been recommended for replacement by a pay band and grade pay without any special pay/allowance, pay shall be fixed in the revised pay structure in accordance with the provisions of clause (A) above.
(C) In the case of employees who are in receipt of special pay component with any other nomenclature in addition to pay in the existing scales, such as personal pay for promoting small family norms, special pay to Parliament Assistants, Central (Deputation on Tenure) Allowance, etc., and in whose case the same has been replaced in the revised pay structure with corresponding allowance/pay at the same rate or at a different rate, the pay in the revised pay structure shall be fixed in accordance with the provisions of clause (A) above. In such cases, the allowance at the new rate as recommended shall be drawn in addition to pay in the revised pay structure from the date specified in the individual notifications related to these allowances.
(D) In the case of medical officers who are in receipt of non-practising allowance, the pay in the revised pay structure shall be fixed in accordance with the provisions of clause (A) above except that, in such cases, the pre-revised dearness allowance appropriate to the non-practising allowance admissible at index average 536 (1982 = 100) shall be added while fixing the pay in the revised pay band, and in such cases, non-practising allowance at the new rates shall be drawn with effect from 1.1.2006 or the date of option for revised pay structure, in addition to the pay so fixed in the revised pay structure. Illustration 2 in this regard is at in the Explanatory Memorandum to these Rules.
Note 1 – (a) In the case of Group D employees, the pay in the revised pay structure will be fixed initially in the -1S pay band as per Clause (A) above with the appropriate grade pay and arrears paid accordingly. Thereafter, pay of such of those Group D employees who already possess the revised minimum qualifications recommended by the Commission prescribed for entry into PB-1 would be fixed with effect from 1.1.2006 in PB-1 with grade pay of Rs.1800.
(b) Such of those existing Group D employees who do not possess the revised minimum qualifications for entry into PB-1 would be retrained by the concerned Department preferably within a period of six months so that payment of arrears on account of upgradation are not delayed. After re-training, these Group D staff will also be placed in the Pay Band PB-1 with the grade pay of Rs.1800 with effect from 1.1.2006 and arrears drawn accordingly. Once placed in the PB-1 Pay Band, this category of Group D staff will regain their seniority vis-à-vis the other category of Group D staff that already possessed the minimum qualifications and were, therefore, placed in the PB-1 Pay Band as on 1.1.2006. Inter-se seniority of all the employees in erstwhile Group D will be fully maintained with Group D employee in a higher pre-revised pay scale being placed higher vis-à-vis an employee in a lower pay scale. Within the same pre-revised pay scale, seniority which existed prior to revision would continue.
(c) Arrears shall be payable with effect from 1.1.2006 in both the cases i.e. to those Group D employees who possess the qualifications and are placed in PB-1 straight away and those Group D employees who do not possess the qualifications and are placed after re-training. Illustration 3 in regard to fixation of pay for Group D staff is in the Explanatory Memorandum to these Rules.
Note 2 – Where a post has been upgraded as a result of the recommendations of the Sixth CPC as indicated in Part B or Part C of the First Schedule to these Rules, the fixation of pay in the applicable pay band will be done in the manner prescribed in accordance with Clause (A) (i) and (ii) of Rule 7 by multiplying the existing basic pay as on 1.1.2006 by a factor of 1.86 and rounding the resultant figure to the next multiple of ten. The grade pay corresponding to the upgraded scale as indicated in Column 6 of Part B or C will be payable in addition. Illustration 4 in this regard is in the Explanatory Memorandum to these Rules.
Note 3 – A Government servant who is on leave on the 1st day of January, 2006 and is entitled to leave salary shall become entitled to pay in the revised pay structure from 1.1.2006 or the date of option for the revised pay structure. Similarly, where a government servant is on study leave on the first day of January, 2006 he will be entitled to the benefits under these Rules from 1.1.2006 or the date of option.
Note 4 – A Government servant under suspension, shall continue to draw subsistence allowance based on existing scale of pay and his pay in the revised pay structure will be subject to the final order on the pending disciplinary proceedings.
Note 5 – Where a Government servant is holding a permanent post and is officiating in a higher post on a regular basis and the scales applicable to these two posts are merged into one scale, the pay shall be fixed under this sub-rule with reference to the officiating post only, and the pay so fixed shall be treated as substantive pay.
The provisions of this Note shall apply mutatis mutandis, to Government servants holding in an officiating capacity, posts on different existing scales which have been replaced by the revised pay structure.
Note 6 – Where the `existing emoluments’ exceed the revised emoluments in the case of any Government servant, the difference shall be allowed as personal pay to be absorbed in future increases in pay.
Note 7 – Where in the fixation of pay under sub-rule (1), the pay of a Government servant, who, in the existing scale was drawing immediately before the 1st day of January, 2006 more pay than another Government servant junior to him in the same cadre, gets fixed in the revised pay band at a stage lower than that of such junior, his pay shall be stepped upto the same stage in the revised pay band as that of the junior.
Note 8 – Where a Government servant is in receipt of personal pay on the 1st day of January, 2006, which together with his existing emoluments exceeds the revised emoluments, then, the difference representing such excess shall be allowed to such Government servant as personal pay to be absorbed in future increases in pay.
Note 9 – In the case of employees who are in receipt of personal pay for passing Hindi Pragya, Hindi Typewriting, Hindi Shorthand and such other examinations under the “Hindi Teaching Scheme”, or on successfully undergoing training in cash and accounts matters prior to the 1st day of January, 2006, while the personal pay shall not be taken into account for purposes of fixation of initial pay in the revised pay structure, they would continue to draw personal pay after fixation of their pay in the revised pay structure on and from the 1st day of January, 2006 or subsequently for the period for which they would have drawn it but for the fixation of their pay in the revised pay structure. The quantum of such personal pay would be paid at the appropriate rate of increment in the revised pay structure from the date of fixation of pay for the period for which the employee would have continued to draw it.
Explanation – For the purpose of this Note, “appropriate rate of increment in the revised pay structure” means 3% of the sum of the pay in the pay band and the grade pay at the stage at which the pay of the employee is fixed in the revised pay structure.
Note 10 – In cases where a senior Government servant promoted to a higher post before the 1st day of January, 2006 draws less pay in the revised pay structure than his junior who is promoted to the higher post on or after the 1st day of January, 2006, the pay in the pay band of the senior Government servant should be stepped up to an amount equal to the pay in the pay band as fixed for his junior in that higher post. The stepping up should be done with effect from the date of promotion of the junior Government servant subject to the fulfillment of the following conditions, namely: –
(a) both the junior and the senior Government servants should belong to the same cadre and the posts in which they have been promoted should be identical in the same cadre.
(b) the pre-revised scale of pay and the revised grade pay of the lower and higher posts in which they are entitled to draw pay should be identical.
(c) the senior Government servants at the time of promotion should have been drawing equal or more pay than the junior.
(d) the anomaly should be directly as a result of the application of the provisions of Fundamental Rule 22 or any other rule or order regulating pay fixation on such promotion in the revised pay structure. If even in the lower post, the junior officer was drawing more pay in the pre-revised scale than the senior by virtue of any advance increments granted to him, provision of this Note need not be invoked to step up the pay of the senior officer.
(2) Subject to the provisions of rule 5, if the pay as fixed in the officiating post under sub-rule (1) is lower than the pay fixed in the substantive post, the former shall be fixed at the stage next above the substantive pay.
8. Fixation of pay in the revised pay structure of employees appointed as fresh recruits on or after 1.1.2006 – Section II of Part A of the First Schedule of these Rules indicates the entry level pay in the pay band at which the pay of direct recruits to a particular post carrying a specific grade pay will be fixed on or after 1.1.2006.
This will also be applied in the case of those recruited between 1.1.2006 and the date of issue of this Notification. In such cases, where the emoluments in the pre-revised pay scale(s) [i.e., basic pay in the pre-revised pay scale(s) plus Dearness Pay plus Dearness Allowance applicable on the date of joining] exceeds the sum of the pay fixed in the revised pay structure and the applicable dearness allowance thereon, the difference shall be allowed as personal pay to be absorbed in future increments in pay.
9. Rate of increment in the revised pay structure –The rate of increment in the revised pay structure will be 3% of the sum of the pay in the pay band and grade pay applicable, which will be rounded off to the next multiple of 10. The amount of increment will be added to the existing pay in the pay band. Illustration 5 in this regard is in the Explanatory Memorandum to these Rules. In the case of PB-3, variable rates of increment at 3% and 4% have been provided. The higher rate of increment will be granted to not more than 20% of the strength of officers in PB-3.
10. Date of next increment in the revised pay structure – There will be a uniform date of annual increment, viz. 1st July of every year. Employees completing 6 months and above in the revised pay structure as on 1st of July will be eligible to be granted the increment. The first increment after fixation of pay on 1.1.2006 in the revised pay structure will be granted on 1.7.2006 for those employees for whom the date of next increment was between 1st July, 2006 to 1stst January, 2007.
Provided that in the case of persons who had been drawing maximum of the existing scale for more than a year as on the 1st day of January, 2006, the next increment in the revised pay structure shall be allowed on the 1st day of January, 2006. Thereafter, the provision of Rule 10 would apply.
Provided that in cases where an employee reaches the maximum of his pay band, shall be placed in the next higher pay band after one year of reaching such a maximum. At the time of placement in the higher pay band, benefit of one increment will be provided. Thereafter, he will continue to move in the higher pay band till his pay in the pay band reaches the maximum of PB-4, after which no further increments will be granted.
Note 1 – In cases where two existing scales, one being a promotional scale for the other, are merged, and the junior Government servant, now drawing his pay at equal or lower stage in the lower scale of pay, happens to draw more pay in the pay band in the revised pay structure than the pay of the senior Government servant in the existing higher scale, the pay in the pay band of the senior government servant shall be stepped up to that of his junior from the same date and he shall draw next increment in accordance with Rule 10.
11. Fixation of pay in the revised pay structure subsequent to the 1st day of January, 2006. – Where a Government servant continues to draw his pay in the existing scale and is brought over to the revised pay structure from a date later than the 1st day of January, 2006, his pay from the later date in the revised pay structure shall be fixed in the following manner:-
(i) Pay in the pay band will be fixed by adding the basic pay applicable on the later date, the dearness pay applicable on that date and the pre-revised dearness allowance based on rates applicable as on 1.1.2006. This figure will be rounded off to the next multiple of 10 and will then become the pay in the applicable pay band. In addition to this, the grade pay corresponding to the pre-revised pay scale will be payable. Where the Government servant is in receipt of special pay or non-practising allowance, the methodology followed will be as prescribed in Rule 7 (i), (B),
(C) or (D) as applicable, except that the basic pay and dearness pay to be taken into account will be the basic pay and dearness pay applicable as on that date but dearness allowance will be calculated as per rates applicable on 1.1.2006.
12. Fixation of pay on reappointment after the 1st day of January, 2006 to a post held prior to that date – A Government servant who had officiated in a post prior to the 1st day of January, 2006 but was not holding that post on that date and who on subsequent appointment to that post draws pay in the revised pay structure shall be allowed the benefit of the proviso to Fundamental Rule 22, to the extent it would have been admissible had he been holding that post on the 1st day of January, 2006, and had elected the revised pay structure on and from that date.
13. Fixation of pay on promotion on or after 1.1.2006 – In the case of promotion from one grade pay to another in the revised pay structure, the fixation will be done as follows:-
(i) One increment equal to 3% of the sum of the pay in the pay band and the existing grade pay will be computed and rounded off to the next multiple of 10. This will be added to the existing pay in the pay band. The grade pay corresponding to the promotion post will thereafter be granted in addition to this pay in the pay band. In cases where promotion involves change in the pay band also, the same methodology will be followed. However, if the pay in the pay band after adding the increment is less than the minimum of the higher pay band to which promotion is taking place, pay in the pay band will be stepped to such minimum.
(ii) In the case of promotion from PB-4 to HAG+, after adding one increment in the manner prescribed in Rule 9, the pay in the pay band and existing grade pay will be added and the resultant figure will become the basic pay in HAG+. This shall not exceed Rs. 80,000, the maximum of the scale. For Government servants in receipt of NPA, pay plus NPA will not exceed Rs. 85,000.
14. Mode of payment of arrears of pay – The arrears shall be paid in cash in two instalments. The first instalment should be restricted to 40% of the total arrears. The remaining 60% of arrears should be paid during the next financial year.
Explanation – For the purposes of this rule:
(a) “arrears of pay” in relation to a Government servant, means the difference between:
(i) the aggregate of the pay and allowances to which he is entitled on account of the revision of his pay and allowances under these rules, for the relevant period. Revised allowances (except for dearness allowance and non-practising allowance) will be payable only with effect from 1.9.2008; and
(ii) the aggregate of the pay and allowances to which he would have been entitled (whether such pay and allowances had been received or not) for that period had his pay and allowances not been so revised.

MEMORANDUM EXPLANATORY TO THE CENTRAL CIVIL SERVICES
(REVISED PAY ) RULES , 2008
Rule 1 – This rule is self-explanatory.
Rule 2 – This rule lays down the categories of employees to whom the rules apply. Except for the categories excluded under clause (2), the rules are applicable to all persons under the rule making control of the President serving in Departments paid from Civil Estimates. They do not apply to the employees under the Ministry of Railways and civilian personnel paid from Defence Services Estimates, for whom separate rules will be issued by the Ministries concerned. The rules do not also apply to Gramin Dak Sevaks in the Department of Posts. The rules, however, apply to work charged establishments.
Rule 3 & 4 – These rules are self-explanatory.
Rule 5 – The intention is that all Government servants should be brought over to the revised pay structure except those who elect to draw pay in the existing scales. Those who exercise the option to continue on the existing scales of pay will continue to draw the dearness allowance at the rates in force on the 1st January, 2006 and the dearness allowance will count towards the emoluments for pension, etc. to the extent it so counted on the said date. If a Government servant is holding a permanent post in a substantive capacity and officiating in a higher post, or would have officiated in one or more posts but for his being on deputation etc., he has the option to retain the existing scale only in respect of one scale. Such a Government servant may retain the existing scale applicable to a permanent post or any one of the officiating posts. In respect of the remaining posts he will necessarily have to be brought over to the revised pay structure.
Rule 6 – This rule prescribes the manner in which option has to be exercised and also the authority who should be apprised of such option. The option has to be exercised in the appropriate form appended to the rules. It should be noted that it is not sufficient for a Government servant to exercise the option within the specified time limit but also to ensure that it reaches the prescribed authority within the time limit. In the case of persons who are outside India at the time these rules are promulgated, the period within which the option has to be exercised is three months from the date they take over charge of the post in India. In the case of Government servants the revised pay structure of whose posts are announced subsequent to the date of issue of these rules, the period of three months will run from the date of such announcement.
Persons who have retired between 1st January 2006 and the date of issue of these rules are also eligible to exercise option.
Rule 7(1) – This rule deals with the actual fixation of pay in the existing scales on 1st January, 2006. A few illustrations indicating the manner in which pay of Government servants should be fixed under this sub-rule subject to stepping up of pay under Notes below rule 7(1) are given in the attached Annexure.
Rule 7(2) – The benefit of this rule is not admissible in cases where a Government servant has elected the revised pay structure in respect of his substantive post, but has retained the existing scale in respect of an officiating post.
Rule 8 – This Rule prescribes the method of fixation of pay of employees appointed as fresh recruits on or after 1.1.2006.
Rule 9 & 10 – These rules prescribe the manner in which the next increment in the new scale should be regulated. The provisos to this rule are intended to eliminate the anomalies of junior Government servants drawing more pay than their senior by the operation of substantive part of this rule and also taking care of the Government servants who have been drawing pay at the maximum of the existing scale for more than one year as on 1.1.2006 and also those Government servants who have been stagnating at the maximum of the existing scale and are actually in receipt of stagnation increment on ad hoc basis.
Rule 11 to 17 – These rules are self-explanatory.

Sl. No. Recommendations of the Sixth Pay Commission Decision of the Government
(i) The pay of employees may be fixed in the proposed scales of pay in the manner laid down in Para 2.2.21(i) to (v) of the Report. Accepted with the following modifications:
(a) Fixation of pay in the revised Pay Bands will be done by multiplying the basic pay drawn as on 1/1/2006 on the existing Fifth CPC pay scales by a factor of 1.86 and then rounded off to next multiple of 10 and not by a factor of 1.74 as recommended by the Commission.
(b) In the case of Medical Doctors, Dearness Allowance on the Non Practising Allowance will be taken into account while fixing their pay in the revised Pay Bands.
(ii)
a) Though –1S pay scale is not a regular pay scale, initially all Group D employees shall be placed in the -1S pay scale with appropriate grade pay. This pay scale has been devised mainly for the purpose of initial fixation of pay of the Group D employees who had already been recruited on a regular basis as on the date of implementation of this recommendation by the Government.
b) Thereafter, such of those Group D employees as already possess the revised minimum qualifications prescribed for entry into the Group C pay band along with a grade pay of Rs.1800 would be placed in that grade (i.e. pay band of Rs.4860-20200 along with a grade pay of Rs.1800) with effect from 1.1.2006. No fitment benefit would be given again for this fixation.
c) Such of those existing Group D employees who do not possess the minimum qualifications prescribed would need to be retrained and a training package would need to be evolved separately for each of the individual Ministry/Department/Organisation keeping in view their specific needs. After re-training with emphasis on multi-skilling, the Group D staff will be placed in the Pay Band PB-1 of Rs.4860-20200 with the grade pay of Rs.1800. Once placed in the PB-1 Pay Band, this category of Group D staff will regain their seniority vis-à-vis the other category of Group D staff that already possessed the minimum prescribed qualifications and were, therefore, placed in the PB-1 Pay Band immediately.
e) Inter-se seniority of all the employees in erstwhile Group D will be fully maintained with Group D employee in a higher Fifth CPC pay scale being placed higher vis-à-vis an employee in a lower pay scale. Within the same pre-revised pay scale, the seniority will be fixed on the basis of date on which the person came to be placed in that pay scale.
f) Arrears shall be payable with effect from 1.1.2006 in both the cases: to those Group D employees who possess the prescribed qualifications and those Group D employees who do not possess the prescribed qualifications. Retraining of the latter should preferably be completed with in a short period, say 6 months, so that fixation in pay band PB-I and payment arrears of salary is not unduly delayed. Accepted

The Commission has recommended that the existing population criterion for classifying towns and cities for purposes of HRA may be retained. However, population in the urban agglomeration should be taken into account for classifying a city for purposes of HRA. The Commission has recommended retention of the existing rate of HRA in A-1 cities to be paid at the rate of 30% of the total of revised pay in the running pay band and grade pay thereon. The Commission has recommended that the erstwhile A, B-1 and B-2 categories may be merged and C & Unclassified categories may also be merged.

6. (i) (ii) Risk AllowanceThe Commission, accordingly, recommends withdrawal of Risk Allowance.

To offset the effect of inflation, amount of the insurance should automatically be increased by 50% every time the DA payable on the revised pay goes up by 50%. The entire expenditure on paying premium for this insurance will be borne by the Government. The amount insured will be paid in case of any serious injury/death sustained in the course of employment and will be over and above the other benefits available to all categories of Government employees. These employees should also be provided with additional health benefits with mandatory health check-ups every quarter and enhanced leave, wherever the same is necessary for proper recuperation. Further, the Government should ensure that latest technology and greatest level of care is observed in these jobs so that the element of risk involved therein is minimized. (Para No. 4.2.68)
Hospital Patient Care Allowance/Patient Care Allowance
The Commission has separately recommended extension of adequate insurance cover to all such categories of employees who face an element of risk in discharge of their official functions. This insurance cover should be extended to all the categories that are presently in receipt of HPCA/PCA. Simultaneously, HPCA/PCA should be withdrawn as no rationale would exist for these allowances once the element of risk is covered by grant of an appropriate insurance cover. The loss incurred by the employees on this account would be more than compensated in respect of existing Group D employees who will be upgraded to Group C. This loss, for Group C employees, should be compensated in form of Performance Related Incentive Scheme. (Para No. 3.6.18)

6cpc notification details
Over 50 lakh government employees, including the armed forces personnel, will be receiving an enhanced pay packet beginning 1st September, with the govt on Friday notifying the revised recommendations of the Sixth Central Pay Commission (CPC).
The much-awaited CPC proposals rpt proposals had received a seal of approval from the union cabinet a fortnight ago after it amended certain recommendations of the Justice Sri Krishna-led Pay Commission that submitted its report to the government on 24th March 24 this year.
The CPC recommendations and the subsequent government decision with regard to revised scales of pay and dearness allowance for civilian employees of the central government would be made retrospectively effective from 1st January 2006, the notification said.
However, the revised allowances, other than dearness allowance, would be effective only from 1st September this year.
On payment of arrears, the government has modified to the extent that the arrears would be paid in cash in two instalments – first instalment of 40 percent this financial year (2008-09) and the remaining 60 percent in the next financial year (2009-10).
The government has approved the setting up of a committee to examine individual, post-specific and cadre-specific anomalies. The committee should try to complete the work in one year, the notification said.
Providing for post-notification changes in the CPC report, the government said “the department specific recommendations” will be processed by concerned departments and ministries and approval of the government obtained in consultations with the Finance Ministry or Department of Personnel and Training.
The Pay Commission recommendations regarding higher pay packages of Rs 2.5 lakh and Rs 3 lakh per month (without house and car) for chairpersons and full-time members of five regulatory bodies — TRAI, IRDA, CERC, SEBI, and CCI — has been accepted by the government, the notification said.
However, the existing incumbents in the regulatory bodies would be offered an option to retain their present pay and allowances together with car and house or to choose the higher pay packages.
The government has granted “in principle” approval to the scheme of allowances for central para military forces of the rank of Commandant and below and other ranks in the battalions deployed in difficult areas and counter-insurgency and high altitude areas.
This decision, the notification said, was taken keeping in view the allowances granted to defence forces personnel in such or similar areas and other allowances granted to central paramilitary forces.
However, the government did away with the provision of Suraksha Sahayaks to central paramilitary forces officers with effect from a date to be fixed later.
“Meanwhile, absolutely necessary posts may be created on the basis of functional justification. The decision will also apply to similarly placed categories in other departments,” the notification said.
The government has improved Pay Bands 1, 2 and 4, as recommended by the CPC, and modified it.
While Pay Band-1 of Rs 4,800-20,200 has been modified to Rs 5,200-20,200 and Pay Band-2 from Rs 8,700-34,800 to Rs 9,300-34,800, the government improved Pay Band-4 from Rs 39,200-67,000 to Rs 37,400-67,000.
A new pay scale of Rs 75,500 (annual increment of 3 percent)-80,000 designated as ‘HAG+’ will be carved out of Pay Band-4.
With regard to fixation of pay in revised pay bands, the basic pay drawn as on 1st January 2006 on the existing 5th CPC, pay scale will be multiplied by a factor of 1.86 and then rounded off to next multiple of 10.
“This will be the pay in the revised pay band. Grade Pay, as approved by the government corresponding to the pre-revised pay scale will be then added to the Pay in the revised Pay Band. The total of pay in the pay band and grade pay will be the revised pay as on January 1, 2006,” the notification said.
“Campus” restriction for grant of transport allowance will be removed. Consequently, employees living in campuses will also be eligible for transport allowance.
Further, transport allowance for the employees at the lowest levels will be increased to Rs 600 (from Rs 400) in A-1/A class cities and Rs 400 (from Rs 300) in other towns.
LTC HAS BEEN ALLOWED WITH FAMILY TO HOME TOWN EVERY YEAR I.E 3 HOME TOWN AND ONE ALL INDIA IN EACH LTC BLOCK
CHILDREN EDUCATION ALLOWANCE AND TUITION FEE REIMBURSEMENT MERGED AND Rs 1000 PER CHILD HAS BEEN ACCEPTED, HOSYEL SUBSIDY HAS BEEN RAISED TO Rs3000

FROM CLASS XII TO DIRECT IAS-NEW PROPOSAL
Hoping to transform the steel frame of the Indian administrative set up, the Second Administrative Reforms Commission (ARC) is set to recommend recruitment of potential civil servants right after the 10+2 as against the present system in which graduation is the minimum education qualification for taking the civil services examination.
There is also a proposal to institute a Senior Executive Service (SES) for Joint Secretary and Additional Secretary level officers who would be “implementing authorities” so far as government schemes are concerned. Yet another proposal is to develop “Domain Expertise”, that is, a system in which a civil servant with about 13-14 years of service is to be promoted and used only in those areas in which he has specialised during this period of service.
These and many other proposals are learnt to be in the final stages of discussion by the ARC headed by M Veerappa Moily. The ARC report on civil services reforms is likely to be submitted to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh within the next four to six weeks, according to sources.
Earlier, the P C Hota Committee on Civil Services Reforms, set up by the NDA government, had also recommended a slew of steps, including lowering the minimum and maximum age of those appearing for civil services examinations, but there was no follow up on the report.
What imparts significance to the Second ARC proposal is the fact that Manmohan Singh himself has been keen to reform the civil services. He, in fact, set up a committee headed by the Cabinet Secretary to see the feasibility of the ARC report on terror, said official sources.
The idea behind the recruitment of 10+2 students as civil servants is to have “fresh, imaginative, clean slates” who will have the “drive” to transform society, according to an ARC member. As per the proposal under discussion, there will be a five-year course for those selected through an all-India examination for civil services; the syllabus will consist of Constitution, public administration, law, etc. This will be followed by a two-year course during which, depending on their inclination and capability, candidates will be allotted different services like the IAS, IPS and the rest.
About 50,000 candidates from among 10+2 students will be shortlisted for Civil Services training through the all-India examination.
The proposal is to establish separate universities or some other institutions to train these prospective civil servants. “Even if all of them do not show the potential to become a civil servant after their admission to the course, the syllabus will be such that they will land good jobs in different sectors after doing the entire or a certain part of the course,” said a source associated with the ARC.
As for graduates and above or those with engineering, management and medical degrees, the proposal is to offer them a “Bridge Course” — after being selected through an examination — to prepare them for civil services.
As for Senior Executive Service (SES) officers, their jobs would be to ensure the implementation of government schemes.
While the Secretary of a particular department under the guidance of the concerned Minister would be involved in policy making and those below a Joint Secretary engaged in“Secretariat works”, the SES officers would be devoted entirely to the implementation part, said sources.
“We would like the states also to follow this model of recruitment of civil servants, but these details can be worked out later,” said an ARC member.
The Second ARC set up in August 2005 has so far submitted eight reports —
Right to Information: Master Key to Good Governance,
Unlocking Human Capital: Entitlements and Governance,
Crisis Management,
Ethics in Governance,
Public Order,
Local Governance,
Capacity Building for Conflict Resolution,

Pay commission notification likely on 29th August 2008
Pay panel notification likely tomorrow New Delhi August 28, 2008, 0:07 IST
The much-awaited official notification of the revised central government pay rules is expected to be issued this Friday. The notification with regard to the Sixth Pay Commission award is ready and is currently being approved by statutory authorities. Sources said the dearness allowance effective this July is also likely to be announced the same day. On August 14, the Union Cabinet had approved an improved and tweaked version of the Sixth Pay Commission award with effect from January 1, 2006. Consequently, an estimated 4.6 million central government employees will receive a raise of 28-40 per cent over their existing basic pay. Employees will start receiving their higher salaries and allowances with effect from this September.
Sources added the first instalment of arrears of Rs 11,748 crore will be paid in cash with effect from September as announced earlier. There had been some apprehensions that with the upcoming fifteenth session of the Lok Sabha scheduled to begin on October 17, Parliamentary sanction for the additional spending sought under the supplementary demand for grants would somehow delay the arrears payment.
However, sources said the arrears would be paid from the salary account of the government.
The Cabinet had decided to issue arrears in cash over two years — 2008-09 and 2009-10 — with the first instalment of 40 per cent being paid by September and the balance next year.
As a consequence of the revised salaries and allowances, the central government’s wage bill is expected to increase 21 per cent on account of an additional expenditure of Rs 22,100 crore in the current financial year (2008-09). Of this, Rs 15,700 crore will be accounted for by the central government employees and Rs 6,400 crore by the railway staff.
Of the Rs 15,700 crore, the first installment of arrears will account for Rs 8,048 crore. Of the Rs 6,400 crore impact on the railway budget, Rs 3,700 crore will be arrears.
The annualised impact of the new salary structure is estimated at Rs 17,798 crore, adding to the approximate Rs 1,04,000 crore annual pay, allowances and pension bill of the Centre.

FOURTH LARGEST WORK FORCE IN THE WORLD BY 2020
| India to have fourth of global workforce by 2020: PM
Guwahati, Aug 26 (IANS) India is expected to account for a fourth of the world’s total skilled workforce by 2020 and the central government is according top priority to higher education, allocating Rs.275,000 crore (Rs.2.75 trillion) to the sector, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said here Tuesday.
“Our government’s effort has been to create the next wave of investment in higher education. And the 11th Five Year Plan which is now under implementation is basically a knowledge investment plan,” the prime Minister said.
“We have significantly increased allocation to the education sector with a five fold increase to an unprecedented Rs.275,000 crore,” he said while addressing faculty and students at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) in Guwahati.
The prime minister said the government was trying to extend quality elementary education to all taking major expansions in secondary and higher educations. The idea was to produce some 500 million trained workforce by 2020.
Approval had already been granted for eight new IITs, seven Indian Institutes of Management, 16 central universities, 14 world class universities, five Indian Institutes of Science, 10 new National Institutes of Technologies, 20 Information Technology Institutes, and 1,000 polytechnics, he added.
“India has the potential to create over 500 million trained people by the year 2020. That would be over a fourth of the global workforce. This big and unique opportunity for India will come from an education revolution that we must undertake as our most important national endeavour.”
“We need to work in close partnership with the corporate sector, non-governmental entities and community organisations. We need to facilitate creative partnerships between the public and private sectors in the field of education including higher education,” he said.
The prime minister, who then left for New Delhi ending his two-day visit to Assam, had to cancel his visit to the western Kokrajhar district Tuesday due to bad weather, officials said.

new update Pay commission
There are many a slip between cup and the lip !!!
Until final report is out nothing can be said with complete surity . So till then then it is just like a waiting game which might or might not result in sweet endings !!!It is also widely spoken and discussed that Group B and C cadres are highly dissatisfied with the report as there is no change in grade pay for four scales and there is no fun in getting any promotion to the next scale when everything has been clubbed together. even the three assured promotions would be a simple waste without any tangible benefit of fixation or higher grade pay . The COS had done benefit only for themselves and totally neglected other cadres as was done by the Sixth Pay Commission. This was to be a pay commission for all cadres but it turned out be a special pay commission for Group A and eye wash for others. God only can can the other cadres from the clutches of these people who are worse than their predecessors the British imperialists.

Government salaries already form 6 per cent of India’s GDP, and will rise further with the implementation of the 6th Pay Commission recommendations. The total increase for all states, the central government, the military, etc. could be nearly Rs 17,798 crore. This will certainly widen India’s fiscal deficit, which is already burdened with high oil subsidies and the Rs 71,600-crore farm loan waiver. Interest rates could face further pressure as the government looks to scrape together enough resources for the payout. Another area that could be hit is expenses on national infrastructure such as roads or ports, power grids.
The additional strain comes at a time when payments towards farm loan waivers, fertiliser subsidies and revenue losses from inflation-fighting measures — a total of about Rs 70,000 crore — also strain the exchequer. On top of this, the burden of the oil and fertiliser bonds could create some destabilising pressures on bond yields.

However it must be admitted that if the income per head of the Indian people is growing at something like 6 per cent a year, some increase in civil servants’ income beyond inflation is defensible. Without it, their incomes would fall behind the rest of the people. So we have the ritual of periodic pay commissions which, after long deliberations, make detailed recommendations stratified by the various caste distinctions within the government. The last pay commission submitted its report on 24 March. After deliberating on it for five months, the government announced its decision on the eve of Independence Day.
The central government is just the first amongst equals; below it are 29 governments of states and union territories. State government finances are generally in a pitiable state. But the economic boom of the past five years, together with the fall in interest rates, had bolstered their revenue and repaired their budgets; they seemed to be on the way to financial prudence. Those dreams of fiscal soundness must be forgotten now.
On the other hand Government employees do with salaries far below those in the private sector. In some cases, private-sector counterparts of top bureaucrats draw salaries up to 10 times higher. These inequalities make it difficult to retain good talent. The additional income for government employees will lead to higher consumer spends. In the long run, this will raise domestic demand, pumping money back into a weakened economy.

In fact this is exactly what happened with the 5th Pay Commission way back in 1997. The government employees, who form a substantial proportion of the Indian middle-class, received the increased salaries with retrospective effect in lump sums. While this certainly damaged the fiscal balance of both the central and state governments, the government employees’ money led to increased consumer spending, which helped boost the economy in the same year when first the Gowda government and later the Gujral government had fallen and the main sectors of the economy had not performed so well.
So it needs to be seen what the government employees will do with their windfall; spend, save, or invest; and what impact will that have on the economy?

Grade Pay for Armed Forces Enhanced Posted: 23 Aug 2008 06:57 AM CDT Source : The Tribune The central government has upwardly revised the grade pay for armed forces officers, but the key question remains whether the enhancement would do away anomalies created by the Sixth Pay Commission (SPC) in the status of military officers vis-à-vis civilian officers. According to information available with The Tribune, the increase in grade pay for armed forces ranges from Rs 400 per month to Rs 2,000 per month at different levels (see chart).
Sources reveal that though the grade pay for the armed forces has been raised, similar enhancement has also been done for civilian officers, which may not give the former any benefit as far as status is concerned. After the SPC recommendations, grade pay remains the sole determinant of status. The basic pay scales of the armed forces as well as civilian officers as recommended by the SPC were increased after a review committee put in fresh suggestion. This, however, did not give any edge to armed forces personnel vis-à-vis their status. To cite an example where the revision has further eroded the status of armed forces officers, lieutenant colonels and equivalents in other services have now been granted a grade pay of Rs 7,600. The SPC had recommended a grade pay of Rs 6,600 for officers at this rank, while recommending Rs 7,600 for the equivalent non-IAS directors of central government and Rs 8,300 for ones from the IAS cadre. The Army had accordingly sought a raise of grade pay for lieutenant colonels to at least Rs 7,600 since traditionally Lieutenant-Colonels(Lt- Col) had been enjoying a pay more than even directors from the IAS cadre. Moreover, the time frame for promotion to Lt-Col and director was the same, thatis, 13 years. However, while acceding to the demand of raising the grade pay of Lieutenant Colonels to Rs 7,600, the government has, on the other hand raised the grade pay of directors to Rs 8,700 resulting in the same anomalous situation prevailing prior to the revision. Though complete details are yet to filter down, officers fear that the same situation may crop up at other ranks. The services are expected to take up the issue with the central government. While the arrears for the salary will be paid with effect from January 1, 2006, revised applicable allowances will be admissible from September 1, 2008. |

Do It Yourself : Calculate your New Salary Posted: 23 Aug 2008 02:49 AM CDT Fixation of Pay as on 01.01.2006: Old basic = 7500 ( in pre revised scale S-14 = 7500 – 250 – 12000) Revised Pay Band = PB-2 = 9300-34800 Grade Pay = 4800 New Basic pay as on : 01.01.2006 = Old basic pay X 1.86 + Grade Pay = 7500 X 1.86 + 4800 = 18750 01.07.2006 = 18750 X 1.03 = 19313 01.07.2007= 19313 X 1.03 = 19892 01.07.2008 = 19892 X 1.03 = 20489 Transport allowance for A1 city from 01.09.2008= 1600 HRA for A1 city = 30 % of new basic from 01.09.2008 = 0.3 x 20489 = 6147 DA on new basic and transport allowance( but TA will be given from 1.09.200 Total Emoluments from 01.09.2008 = New basic pay + TA + HRA + DA ( on new basic pay + TA) = 20489+1600+6147+3524 Total Revised Gross Pay from 01.09.2008 = Rs 31760. Total Pre revised gross pay as on 01.08.2008 = old basic X 1.5 X 1.54( 7% additional DA will be effective from 01.07.08 in pre revised scale 47+ 7 = 54%) + TA + HRA + CCA = (7500X1.5 X 1.54)+ 400 + (0.3 X 7500 X1.5) + 300 Gross pre revised Pay as on 01. 08. 2008 = 21400 Absolute hike in gross salary = Gross revised salary – gross pre revised salary = 31760 – 21400 = 10360 Percentage (%) hike in Gross salary = (10360/21400 ) X 100 = 42 % For those who prefer automated systems: NEW AND UPDATED SALARY CALCULATOR Notes: 1. It is assumed that he has not got any promotion between 01.01.2006 to 01.09.2008. If one got promotion between 01.01.2006 and 01.09.2008, one additional increment of 3% of new basic pay will be given plus his revised grade pay after promotion will be added for calculating new basic pay. In above sample calculation, if someone got promotion in 01.08.2007 from pre revised scale S-14 (= 7500 – 250 – 12000) to S-15 scale (8000 – 275 – 13500), this scale is now upgraded in PB-3 ( 15600 – 39100) with grade pay 5400. Therefore he will get one additional ancrement on 01.08.2007 2. He is staying in Class A-1 city. 3. He is not using official transport, therefore eligible for transport allowance. 4. Revised Da will be effective 2% from 01.07.2006, 6% from 01.01.2007, 9% from 01.07.2007, 12 % from 01.01.2008 and 16 % from 01.07.2008.

Bharat Desh Mahaan
A word from Dr. A P J Abdul Kalam former President of India
You must proclaim. India is not an under-developed country; it is indeed a highly developed nation. Do you have 10 minutes? Allow me to come back with a vengeance. YOU say that our government is inefficient. Our laws are too old.The municipality does not pick up the garbage. The phones don’t work. The railways are a joke. The airline is the worst in the world Mails never reach their destination. Our country has been fed to the dogs and is the absolute pits. YOU say, say and say. But what do YOU do about it? Take a person on his way to Singapore. Give him a name? – YOURS.Give him a face? – YOURS. YOU walk out of the airport and you are at your International best. In Singapore you don’t throw cigarette butts on the roads or eat in the stores. YOU are as proud of their Underground Links as they are. You pay $5 (approx. Rs.60) to drive through Orchard Road (equivalent of Mahim Causeway or Peddar Road) between 5 PM and 8 PM. YOU comeback to the parking lot to punch your parking ticket if you have over-stayed, in a restaurant or shopping mall irrespective of your status identity. In Singapore you don’t say anything, DO YOU? YOU wouldn’t dare to eat in public during Ramadan, in Dubai. YOU would not dare to go out without your head covered in Jeddah. YOU would not dare to buy an employee of the telephone exchange in London at £10 (Rs.650) a month to, “see to it that my STD and ISD calls are billed to someone else.” YOU would not dare to speed beyond 55 mph (88 km/h) in Washington and then tell the traffic cop, “Jaanta hai main kaun hoon? (Do you know who I am?). I am so and so’s son. Take your two bucks and get lost.” YOU wouldn’t chuck an empty coconut shell anywhere other than the garbage pail on the beaches in Australia and New Zealand. Why don’t YOU spit Paan on the streets of Tokyo? Why don’t YOU use examination jockeys or buy fake certificates in Boston????? We are still talking of the same YOU. India Sixty – Vision & Mission A project by Indian Institute of Scientific Heritage Page 8 of 14 YOU who can respect and conform to a foreign system in other countries but cannot in your own. You who will throw papers and cigarettes on the road the moment you touch Indian ground. If you can be an involved and appreciative citizen in an alien country, why cannot you be the same here in India? Once in an interview, the famous Ex-municipal Commissioner of Bombay, Mr. Tinaikar, had a point to make. “Rich people’s dogs are walked on the streets to leave their affluent droppings all over the place,” he said. “And then the same people turn around to criticize and blame the authorities for inefficiency and dirty pavements. What do they expect the officers to do? Go down with a broom every time their dog feels the pressure in his bowels? In America every dog owner has to clean up after his pet has done the job. Same in Japan. Will the Indian citizen do that here?” He’s right. We go to the polls to choose a government and after that forfeit all responsibility. We sit back wanting to be pampered and expect the government to do everything for us whilst our contribution is totally negative. We expect the government to clean up but we are not going to stop chucking garbage all over the place nor are we going to stop to pick up a stray piece of paper and throw it in the bin. We expect the railways to provide clean bathrooms but we are not going to learn the proper use of bathrooms. We want Indian Airlines and Air India to provide the best of food and toiletries but we are not going to stop pilfering at the least opportunity. This applies even to the staff who is known not to pass on the service to the public. When it comes to burning social issues like those related to women, dowry, girl child and others, we make loud drawing room protestations and continue to do the reverse at home. Our excuse? “It’s the whole system which has to change, how will it matter if I alone forego my son’s rights to a dowry.” So who’s going to change the system? What does a system consist of? Very conveniently for us it consists of our neighbours, other households, other cities, other communities and the government. But definitely not me and YOU. When it comes to us actually making a positive contribution to the system we lock ourselves along with our families into a safe cocoon and look into the distance at countries far away and wait for a Mr. Clean to come along & work miracles for us with a majestic sweep of his hand or we leave the country and run away. Like lazy cowards hounded by our fears we run to America to bask in their glory and praise their system. When New York becomes insecure we run to England. When England experiences unemployment, we take the next flight out to the Gulf. When the Gulf is war struck, we demand to be rescued and brought home by Indian government. Everybody is out to abuse and rape the country. Nobody thinks of feeding the system. Our conscience is mortgaged to money. Dear Indians, this is highly thought inductive, calls for a great deal of introspection and pricks one’s conscience too… I am echoing J.F. Kennedy’s words to his fellow American to relate to Indians? “ASK WHAT WE CAN DO FOR INDIA AND DO WHAT HAS TO BE DONE TO MAKE INDIA WHAT AMERICA AND OTHER WESTERN COUNTRIES ARE TODAY” Let’s do what India needs from us. Forward this mail to each Indian for a change instead of sending Jokes or junk mails.
Thank You,
Dr. A P J Abdul Kalam
