No the undersigned herewith drawing your valued attention to the fact myself Apurba Saha Hazra( Sr .Officer-Technical in TCIL under Liquidation ) is the only earning member of my family And unless your good self consieder our case very sympathetically & releases the requisite Order as deemed appropriate& judicious by your valued Conscience, to SAVE our family comprising my mother (cardiac Patient),70yrs. Old, daughter(student of B.Tech-Textiles) and my son (student of 1s year in Civil Engineering ) facing abject poverty as well as severe mental agony following sever financial crunch due to nonpayment of our salary( under 92 pay scale) since Nov.2012- which is a serious violation of our article 12,21 &23 ( Right to live hood& right to work ) by a Model Employer-GOI-the fact itself the greatest example of Intolerance& Indifference attitude of GOI to the immense sufferings of the family members of a CPSU employee in this vibrant democracy .And-The employees and their family members are facing unabated mental agony and abject poverty, remained half feed or starving for days. Many of their kith and kin died without proper treatment, children are compelled to discontinue their education, many of their houses are likely to auctioned by the concerned Bank Authorities ,after serving several notices toward non-payment of EMIs.And all this unfortunate situations are being faced by the poor employees only because of the efficient functioning of DHI-DOD/ GOI towards the implementation of TCIL Disinvestment Act.2007 passed by the Parliament in December 2007 to revive TCIL, with an employment guarantee for THREE years to the employees after the execution of disinvestment. And it is pertinent to mention that my self is the only earning member of my family, have crossed the Extreme limit to breaking strength of economy of our family ,and no longer in a position to run my family as well as to bear the cost of education of of kids ( doing their Education in Engineering )any longer despite being an unfortunate employee of a CPSU 100 % owned by GOI. Now being totally embarrassed at this stage after my 23 yrs. Sacred service to a CPSU since 1992 when I joined TCIL through an all India basis Exam. Under two yrs Training on Tech.Service and five yrs Post Training Bond service during the execution of a Rs123 crs new Project that received no working capital. And we people are being rammed between Governments indecision and soaring inflation/higher market price of essential commodities for we are being paid in 92 pay Scales despite having approval for 97 pay scale by CCEAdt16/11/2008 wef. 1/04/2008 as incorporated in our DRS dt March2010.
Accordingly to get rid out of the problem we effectively communicated several times to all the officials from PM to PI-GOI since2014 January but remained unpaid. Yes we positively not demonstrated any where in the public Places against the misdeed of DHI- GOI ,in the perspective of TCIL, we haven’t set fire in the buses, trains or in any Public Property, we haven’t blocked the Roads, stopped the Trains for hours or cut the water supply chain any where in India causing inconvenience to the common Public of India to exhibit our democratic Power , we haven’t burnt the effigy of honorable PM-PI-FM &ofMinister of DHI to express our hatred to the Rotten system of India, covered with the curtain of Corruption that led us (the poor employees & their family members ) to the present , ruined decaying financial status .But we the Lawabiding Poor Citizen employees of TCIL knocked the door of Indian Judiciary system at the cost of everything we had, & in turn the DHI-GOI purportedly Avoiding the recommendations of NHRC ( dt 25/5/2015,27/8/2015&28/1/2016 )& valued orders of Calcutta High Court dt 20/03/2014,1/12/2015 &28/01/2016 ,prompting us to end our lives in incineration.
Apropos to above situation we are once again requesting the favor of your valued disposal to resolve the problem of 40 monthhs unpaid 112 remaining Pay Roll employees( & their family members ) of TCIL through latest VRS Schemes of DHI in line with the status as favoured by CCEA to the employees of Hindustan Cables ltd & Hindustan Photo Films Ltd, ( for the sake of Humanity ) considering our immense suffering and unabated mental unrest of our family members.
Please help us for the sake of democracy and protect our fundamental rights as conferred by our constitution by executing you valued disposal to draw an end to our immense sufferings & unabated mental agony to our poor family members ,literally starving for days after days shilently.
Thanking you.
