The Employees, Teachers, Workers and Pensioners JAC, in its general body meeting held on Monday, condemned the sweeping remarks made by Chief Minister N. Kiran Kumar Reddy a few days ago on corruption by government employees. The JAC said such statements would demoralise the government, diminish the prestige of the administration in general and government employees in particular.
Mr Reddy had said in a public meeting in Chitto-or district that with the introduction of E-Seva services, the public can now avail of all the services easily and without paying graft. He said that roughly, around Rs 2,000 crore was offered as bribes all these years. The JAC also demanded that the government ad-vance the superannuation age from the present 58 to 60 years.
Additionally, the meeting demanded that the government immediately appoint the 10th Pay Revision Commission in place of the anomalies committee; regularisation of part-time and full-time contingent employees; regularisation of contract employees; and abolition of contract and outsourcing appointments in all PSUs.
