Sir,
I wish like to bring your kind attention to my grievance regarding seniority of LDC’s. I am a direct recruited LDC in a Central Government Office. Our department has issued a seniority list based on the date of approval for regularization and the sequence/order in which the names appear in the approval on the list approved by the Chairman (merit has not been considered).
2. As per the the DoPT guidelines, the relative seniority of all direct recruits is determined by the order of merit in which they are selected for such appointment on the recommendations of the UPSC or other selecting authority, persons appointed as a result of an earlier selection being senior to those appointed as a result of a subsequent selection. However, the Department has issued the orders (Seniority structure).
3. Sir, is it justified to all the direct recruited LDC’s as the seniority has been made on the basis of first come first basis list. I hope you will humbly consider the matter & make a way out for us.
Regard

I agree with you fully, Sir.
Respected Kameshwar Mishra Sir,
Kindly extend the same to the Stenographers Gr.I and Stenographers Gr.II of Subordinate Cadre Ministerial Staff (Field Offices/Field Formations),(such as Central Electricity Authority, CPWD, GSI, Survey of Indis, CWC, Archeorological Survey of India, Kendriya Vidyalayas, Navodaya Vidyalaya Samithi, Central Pollution Control Board etc.,) those who are rendered the service of 20 – 30 years and did not get any promotion as Personal Assistant or Personal Secretary and they are remain in the same cadre until their retirement.
Atleast their Grade Pay may kindly beenhanced from Rs. 4200/- to Rs.4600/- and from Rs.4600/- to Rs.4800/- at par with Grade “C” Stenographers of CSS Cadre (Personal Assistants) in Ministries and other Administrative Offices located/situated in Metropolitan Cities.
What is my intention (To bring to your kind notice) that uniformity may kindly be extended to all the Central Government Employees whether CSS Cadre o Subordinate Cadre Ministerial Staff of Field Offices / Field Formations. Why this proposal? because,
1. For that the minimum qualification is the same for appearing the competitive exam, which will be conducted by Staff Selection Commission.
2. For that the type of examination is the same.
3. For that the minimum Basic Pay is the same at the time of joining in service either by CSS Cadre Employee or Subordinate Cadre Ministerial Staff.
4. For that the Category “X” (CSS Cadre), “Y” (Subordinate Cadre) or “Z” (Delhi Development Authority) all are appearing the exam conducted by Staff Selection Commission.
5. For that as my Junior Counterparts in CSS Cadre are drawing the more Basic Pay and more Grade Pay
6. For that my Junior Counterparts in CSS Cadre are got the promoton as Personal Assistants and drawing the Grade Pay of Rs. 4800/- w.e.f. 01/09/2008 onwards as per MACP Scheme of VI Central Pa Commission whereas myself and my other counterparts in All India Subordinate Cadre Ministerial Staff are drawing the Grade Pay of Rs.4200/- w.e.f. 01/01/2006 onwards.
7. For that Assistants in All India Subordinate Cadre Ministerial Staff are drawing the GradePay of Rs.4600/- only w.e.f. 01/09/2008 onwards, those who completed the continuous service of 30 years whereas their Counterparts (Assisants in CSS Cadre) are drawing the Grade Pay of Rs.4800/- or Rs.5400/-(in some caes), which makes frustration amongst the Assistants of Subordinate Cadre Ministerial Staff.
8. For that in some Central Government Offices, some Assistants of Subordinate Cadre (Drawing the Grade Pay of Rs.4600/-) are working under the administrative control their Junior Counterparts in CSS Cadre who are drawing the Grade ay of Rs.4800/- or in some cases Rs. 5400/-
9. In view of the above, myself (An employee of Subordinate Cadre Ministerial Staff) requesting your honour and with humble request to kindly extend the same benefits to Subordinate Cadre Ministerial Staff.
10. Further, the last but not the least, my humble request is to make a common seniority of all the Subordinate Cadre Ministerial Staff (Field Offices / Field Formations) (Like CSS Cadre Staff such as LDC, UDC, Grade”D” Steno, Personal Assistants, Assistants, Persona Secretaries) under the Administrative Control of Department of Personnel & Training.
With regards,
Yours faithfully,
