As suggested in Hindi Blog for karmcharis, the keenly waited report of Sixth Central Pay commission is due to be submitted by 4th April. But now the sixth pay commission news is that is will be out on 20th March. So day after tomorrow is the de day. It will recommend a meager 20% hike in basic. It is pathetic to sum up.
But as an content watcher of Internet I find sixth pay commission really interesting net phenomenon. There are already communities on Orkut that tracks news and rumors about pay panel. Many segments give their side of sad stories, of discrimination and pathetic working conditions. Take Army officers for example, do you know (I didn't know) that most officers get far poor deal then pan chewing babus secretariat ( These IAS and IPS, who freely go and murder the Shivanis, get most of pay, and pay panels). Kuber at one forum spells-
UPDATE : REPORT IS OUT- SEE THIS POST
ARMY AN OPTION FOR YOUTH?
NO…….. NEVER ……………
WHY?
To get the answer read the lines below very carefully and seriously.
In an organisation where 80 percent of officers get superceded at the service of just 16-17 years It means that 80 percect get no promotion after the age of around 38/39 years and start waiting for retirement till their age is 54 years. Not only this, once they get superceded at the Rank of Lt Col (at the age of 38/39 years) they are forced to stay in the pay scale of 15100—18700.Now in this pay scale they reach at the maximum of this pay scale at the service of just 22 years (it means at the age of 43/44 years).
Now just imagine when this lot of officers interact with young boys in civil do you expect them to give a good image of army? This superceded lot which is increasing every years at the rate of approximately 500/600 will impact much more than any other advertisement campaign by army.
This country is not giving army officers even equal to what any other class one job officer is getting (just forget IAS /IPS for a moment)the calculations in support of this fact is given at the end of this article.
In IMA the first thing is taught is that “WHEN RAPE IS ENEVITABLE ENJOY IT” that is what all army men who are forced to stay in army due various reasons are doing it. No amount of disscussion can bring the realities of army life. Mind you it is worse than your imagination.
If you want to do something for army at least put them equal to other class one job. Do not try to make Brigadier of General just give them the minimum basic pay scale which is being given to any other class one job.
For example in any other class one job all officers who are directly selected and start with the pay scale of 8000 –13500.
100 percent of them achieve the pay scale of 16400—22400 at the service of 15/16 years . At least give this much to army also. At present only 20 percent ( colonel rank)go into that pay scale that too upper limit is just 19350 for them
