All category of employees put together would be 9,36,976 and the salary hike would be extended for all these employees, the CM said. If need be, the financial burden on the TSRTC due to salary hike would be borne by the state government, the CM said.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">CM KCR also announced that besides the salary hike, increasing the age for retirement, giving promotions, effecting the transfers, formulation of simplified service rules, giving all the benefits on the day of the retirement to the employees and bidding them a respectful farewell, making appointments on compassionate grounds, and all other employee related matters would be solved by the end of February. The CM also declared that recruitment policy after identifying all the vacant posts in the government would be done from February. To study all these issues and to have discussions with the employees\u2019 unions, the CM appointed a Committee under the Chairmanship of Chief Secretary Sri Somesh Kumar, Principal Secretary (Finance) Ramakrishna Rao, Water resources Principal Secretary Sri Rajat\u00a0 Kumar as members of a three man Committee.\u00a0 The Committee in January first week will study the PRC report. In the second week of January, the Committee will have a meeting with the Employees Unions. The Committee will advise the government on how much salary revision should be made? To what extent the retirement age should be increased? How to prepare the service rules? What policy should be adapted for the promotions? What is the strategy to get over the legal problems for implementing the Zonal system and other related issues.\u00a0 Later, the State cabinet would meet and take the final decisions.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cGovernment employees played a pivotal role in the separate statehood movement. The Telangana Government employees under the TNGO protected the Telangana Identity under the united AP regime. We have estimated that if Telangana State is formed it will be a rich state. Then we thought the Telangana Government employees would be given good salaries for their service to Telangana people and the government. As expected we got the Telangana State. Telangana State became a rich state financially. The state government is implementing several welfare schemes for the farmers and the poor. We have taken many measures for the welfare of employees. After the formation of Telangana State, the government gave 42 percent fitment to the government employees and hiked their salaries. The government hiked salaries to Government employees, pensioners, employees in the State Public Sector Undertakings, Out sourcing employees, Contract employees, employees working with meagre salaries, employees of the Municipal and Panchayat departments. Now there is a need to hike the salaries of these employees. The government has decided to hike the salaries to the extent possible based on its financial condition,\u201d the CM announced.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cUnder the united AP, every issue of the employees are riddled with problems. Every issue used to be a controversy and they were all at the mercy of court cases. They have continued even after formation of the Telangana State. The Telangana government made several attempts, held many discussions and cleared all the legal tangles and now it getting some clarity on the issues. Now the road is cleared to make government employees in Telangana State to discharge their duties without any problem and inconvenience. Now without any further delay all the issues of the employees should be solved. The entire process should be completed in January and February. By March all the employees should be freed from any problem, \u201cthe CM instructed the officials.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cDue to dispute with AP state, it is not possible to give promotions in Revenue and the Police departments. Now those disputes are resolved. Hence give promotions in these departments. Appoint DPCs in all the departments. Vacant posts after the promotions should be filled up immediately. After giving promotions in all the department clarity on the vacant posts number will be known. Identify vacant posts department-wise and start recruitment in February,\u201d the CM instructed.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cEvery employee on the day of his appointment should know when he would retire. There should be clarity on what position he will hold at the time of retirement. In tune with service rules should be formed in a simpler manner. No one should try to influence to get his promotion. They should not run around the offices for their due promotion. The employee should get his order of promotion at the appropriate time. The service rules should be framed so that every employee should have clarity. The heads of the department should ensure employees welfare,\u201d the CM suggested.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cEmployees for 35 years discharge their duties for the government and people. Hence they should deserve a befitting and respectable farewell when they relinquish the job. Retiring employee on the day of retirement, whether he is Class IV of a head of the department they should be felicitated on that day. They should be dropped to their houses in the government vehicle. They should get all the retirement benefits on the day of their retirement. There should not be the situation in Telangana State where a retired employees running from the pillar to post for their retirement benefit. All the senior officers should take measures in tune with the policy,\u201d the CM said.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cIt is most unfortunate that there is a delay in the appointments on the compassionate grounds. Family members who are in sorrow due to the death of their earning family should not be made to run around the government offices for the appointments on compassionate grounds. State wide in all the department complete the appoints under compassionate grounds,\u201d the CM instructed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao, as a new year\u2019s gift, has decided to increase the salaries of all the government employees, increase the age of superannuation and to recruit employees in all the government departments.
