HeadClerk

He is the first Supervisory member of the staff who functions

as

Sectional head in the Sections dealing with personnel and

general administration.

His functions are to assist the Head of the

Office/SAO/AO or any other officer entrusted with the duties of a

Branch Officer.

He will be responsible for all administrative

matters othen than Accounts such as service books and leave

account of non-gazetted Government Servants. Staff Artists,

maintenance of Statistical Registers and books. Inventories etc.

Where there are two Head Clerks the distribution of work between

them will be on the basis of Sections divided into two separate

sections dealing with personnel and General Administration

separately.

( Note: On occasions when the Accountant or Head Clerk is away on leave or one

of the posts is unfilled, all the duties attached to both the posts should be

performed by the Accountant or Head Clerk as the case may be.)

It may not be irrelevant to mention that while extending the pay

scale of Rs.5500-9000/-, to Head C/erks/ Accountants/ Sr. Store

keepers, the. MIS has clarified that the designation of Head

Clerk/Accountants/Sr. Store keeper will be known

as

Assistants

/Head Clerks on that ground that the duties of erstwhile

HCs/ACTTs/SSKs are Presently designated

as

Assistants/Head

Clerk of AIR/DD are Supervisory in nature and eligible for grant

of

pay scale

of

Pre-revised

1640-2900

Rs.5500-9000/-. The MIS Ir

No.45011/4G/97 B A dt

4 8 997

Copy Enclosed has denoted

this.

The Prasar Bharti has also appointed Assistant on deputation

from the UDCs of AIR and DD. They are neither supervisory nor

CSS cadre even though in the Gr~de Pay 4600 infact, the

Assistant/Head Clerk of AIR DD are better qualified and have

more onerous duties

to

perform that 1heAssistant appointed on

deputation by Prasar Bharti.

it is undisputed that Assistant/Head Clerk of AIR

DD were drawing

the pay scale of Rs.5500-

90001

on par with Assistants of CSS

Cadre with effect from 1.1.1996 and are holding the posts of

Supervisory nature. This parity is maintained without any interruption

till 31.12.2005. In the eye of Law, it is a clear-cut injustice that pay

parity once allowed a cadre at par with other cadre based on type of

job responsibility in accordance with the Government Instruction as

well as Eye of Law, that can't be di~continued by any Department in

his own perception. I

But surprisingly, it has been observed that at the time of

implementing the 6th CPC recommendations, the allowed parity as

per Law, was disturbed. Though, the Government of India had

upgraded the Pay Scale(pre-revised) of Assistants/Head Clerks in

field offices as per 6th CPC's recommendation to maintain parity with

CSS cadre, so, the same has not been extended to Assistants/Head

Clerks working in AIR DD, is beyond justice. Here, it is unjustified to

ignore that the Assistants/Head Clerks working in AIR

have

been fulfilled all the criteria/conditions for granting the Grade pay of

Rs.4600 as per the recommendations of 6th CPC. Since the

recommendations of 6th CPC are applicable to all central

Government employees without any reservation, as such, the same

may be extended to Head Clerk /Accountant Assistant working in AIR

DO.

It is also relevant to mention that the Hon'ble Central

.

Administrative Tribunal in several judgments have directed the

departments to extend the benefit of grade pay of Rs.4600/- to

Assistants working in various Departments (field offices) at par with

the Assistants of CSS in accordance with the 6th CPC

recommendation. For ready reference, enclosed the copy of the

judgment of Hon'ble CAT Principal Bench vide OA No.2206/2013

dt.5.12.2014 where directed the Respondents to grant Grade Pay of

Rs.4600/- to Accountants working in Oept. of legal Affairs, Ministry of

Law even taken into account that their Accountants are not treated

as CSS Cadre and copy of the implementation/fixation order of

Ministry of Law

Justice vide No.A-24011/39/2009-Admn.CAS-78

dated 8

th

September, 2015.

The following merits are placing before you for concluding the

decision to grant the Grade Pay of Rs.4600/- to the Accountant

Assistant Head Clerk of AIR

1. There is historical parity in the pay scales of

Accountant/Assistant/Head Clerk and that of CSS Cadre.

2. The Assistant Head Clerk of AIR DO are first level

supervisors.

3. The Head Clerk /Assistants of AIR DO have fulfilled all the

criteria/conditions to grant Grade Pay of Rs.4600/- w.e.f. 01/01/2006.

4. The Assistant/Head Clerk of AIR DO are on the same

footing with that be granted Assistants of CSS Cadre, Assistants and

Accountants of other field Offices who are drawing the Grade pay of

Rs.4600/.

It will not be out of place to mention here that Ministry of Law

Justice, Department of Legal Affairs, vide its DO No.29(9)/2014-

Judl dated 7.8.2014(Copy Enclosed) had requested all Ministries and

Departments by try to reduce Government litigation in courts so that

valuable court time is spent in resolving other pending cases.



Page ...4 ...

In view of the above, it is earnestly requested to grant Grade

Pay of Rs.4600/- to Assistant/Head (Old designation Accountant)

Clerk working in All India Radio/Doordarshan which is also in line

with accepted recommendations of 6th Central Pay Commission.

Thanking you,

2. Sh. K. Srinivasan, Dy. Director (PBRB), PTI Building,

Sansand Marg, New Delhi.
