( d ) Are the existing 32 grades of scales of pay adequate ? Yes

Pay Scale Structure Based on the Master Scale proposed at 3 ( c )

PROPOSED PAY SCALES FOR THE TEACHERS

* Mandal Educational officer post is equivalent to Grade II Head Master Post . Both are feeder cadres for the promotion of Dy . Eo / Gr

I H . M . Post . Previous PRC set aside this and said that Mandal Educational Officer Post is only administrative Post , whereas Gr II H . M Post is administrative and academic . Hence 10 th PRC has sanctioned higher scale to Grade II H . M posts in the same cadre have different scales . It is a disparity . So we propose to set right the disparity and Mandal Educational Officers should have the same scale i . e . of Gr II H . M .

( e ) If ‘ No ’, how many grades of scales do you suggest ?

( f ) The Sixth Central Pay Commission introduced the concept of Pay bands and Grade Pay . The 9th Pay Revision Commission had also gone into this question and did not agree for adoption . Do you agree with the above view or else what do you suggest ?

The Central Government Employees could not get equal benefits of their existing basic pay . The Grade pay ranges are from 84 % to 46 %. So Grade pay system proposed by VI Central pay commission is not acceptable . Hence we proposed fitment as percentage on pay .

( g ) In case you advocate for implementation with modifications what modifications you would like to suggest ?

4 . Fitment :

( a ) In the Central Government , during the earlier pay revisions fitment used to be allowed for fixation of pay in the Revised Pay Scales . So is the case with the State Government . In the light of the above , what is your opinion on fitment ?

Fitment should be allowed for fixation of pay in Revised Pay Scales .

( b ) Should it be ( Tick your choice )

i ) A percentage of pay ii ) Increments based on service

( c ) Percentage of fitment Rs ._________/ 69 % .

5 . Increment

( a ) State Government employees are now getting annual increment at the rates ranging from 2.48 % to 2.985 %. Do you think that this is alright ?

No

( b ) If your opinion is “ No ” then what should be the quantum of increment in your view ? The rationale behind

your suggestion may please be indicated .

Quantum of increment should be 3 %. 9 th PRC also recommends 3 % rate of increment . But in the Master Scale rate of increment was enhanced for every three stages . Hence the average rate of increment is being reduced . So we are proposing the rate of increment at 3 % and it should be given at every stage of the Master Scale
