PAY ANMOLIES

1. STEP UP/PAR-PARITY

Every time post implementing the recommendation of Pay Commission, anomalies arises and genuine case are being referred to Anomalies committee set up to redress such issues. However, despite govt approval, pay-parity/step-up pay at par with course-mate/entry-mate is not being done and every individual has to approach the Court of Law (AFT). In 6th CPC, re-fixation of pay of Lt Col & Naik has not been corrected despite provision of most beneficial option.

2. CESSIN OF TECH (X GP) PAY TO HONORARY RANKS

Warrant ranks (JCOs) of technical trade on promotion to the honorary ranks, continued to remain Technician, but deprived X Pay (paid to the JCOs @6200/pm). MSP of such Hon ranks are paid at par with officers but TECHNICAL PAY at par with Technical Branch not being paid.  The status as Technician never ceased and continued to perform duties of X group in terms of AF Pay Rule 2017 is unjustified thus creating classification between the classes which is non-est in Law. In para 21 of 1/SAI/2008, the power has been given to authority for relaxing the rule in case of undue hardship in case disparity but this point not even forwarding it to anomalies committee despite contrary to the own Policy of IAF whereas status and privileges of Hony Comm Offr as per AFO No. 10/2014 will continue to be at par with Warrant Ranks and hold office, vacancy and establishment of MWO/WOs. 

3.       HOUSE RENT ALLOWANCES

In Armed forces due to peculiar nature of job-profile, one has to stay away from family due to posting to non-family station, high altitude area etc, thus one has to make alternate arrangement for their family to cater education of children’s, medical facility for parents /wards etc, however, Unit Auth fail to process claim of House rent allowances, cause financial loss to Jawans which is repeatedly upheld by Courts.
