CS writes to CPMG regarding anomalies in orders of ACP

Regarding some anomalies pointed out by our members in the orders issued for ACP, the CS has writen to CO as follows. The AD(ST) has assured to take suitable corrective measures soon.
No.AIAIPASP/Corr-4/2008
Dated 23.10.2008
To
The Chief Postmaster General
Orissa Circle
Bhubaneswar 751001

Sub: ACP to IPs

Sir,
Orders have been issued by CO granting ACP to 22 IPs. The date of effect of the ACP in all the cases falls after 01.01.2006. Since the revised pay structure has been implemented as per 6 CPC Report in September 2008 with retrospective effect from 01.01.2006, the orders for ACP were required to be issued mentioning the revised pay structure. As per the orders issued for implementation of recommendation of 6 CPC the scale of pay of ASPs has been upgraded to Rs.7450-11500 (in pre-revised scale) w.e.f 1.01.2006. The revised scale of pay of IPs has become Rs.6500-10500(pre-revised) w.e.f 01.01.2006 consequent upon merger of three scales into one Pay Band with one Grade Pay i.e.Rs.4200/-

In the orders for ACP issued by CO on 16.10.2008, the scale of pay of IPs has been mentioned incorrectly which has created a lot of confusion for DDOs. In absence of the mention of higher grade pay (i.e. Rs. 4600/-) admissible to them which the IPs have become entitled by virtue of their financial upgradation under ACP, some DDOs have started interpreting that the orders issued by CO on 16.10.2008 for ACP will yield no financial benefit.

In view of the above, it is requested kindly to issue suitable instruction/clarification to clear the confusion.
With regards,
Yours faithfully,
B B Mohanty
Circle secretary
