Globalisation blinds us to aam aadmi plight: SC

Globalisation blinds us to aam aadmi plight: SC In unusual self-criticism, the Supreme Court said today that courts, including the “last court in the largest democracy of the world”, have lost sympathy for the common man in pursuit of the “attractive mantras” of globalisation and liberalisation. A Division Bench of Justice G S Singhvi and Justice A K Ganguly, in two separate orders, cautioned judges of the Supreme Court and Constitutional courts that there will be “precarious consequences” will visit the nation if they dilute constitutional imperatives to promote the “so-called trends of globalisation”. Both judges passed their orders on January 5 in an appeal filed by Harjinder Singh, a retrenched worker with the Punjab State Warehousing Corporation, who had challenged the Punjab and Haryana High Court decision to pay him Rs 87,582 as compensation instead of re-instating him with 50 per cent back wages.

Govt employees can travel first class from April 1

Govt employees can travel first class from April 1 With signs of economic revival becoming more pronounced, the government has relaxed the austerity drive undertaken last year and from April 1, government employees will be allowed to fly first class. "The matter has been reviewed and it has been decided that with effect from April 1, 2010, travel on government account by air, both domestic and international may take place by the entitled class," an official statement said. Last September, in the midst of the global financial crisis, the government had directed its employees not to fly first class on government account, irrespective of their entitlement, and fly economy for all domestic travels.

'Govt employee has fundamental right to be considered for promotion'

'Govt employee has fundamental right to be considered for promotion' The Supreme Court has ruled that a Government employee has a fundamental right to be considered for promotion and it is mandatory for the Centre and States to carry out cadre review of eligible officers for promotion to the Indian Administrative Service (IAS). "The right of eligible employees to be considered for promotion is virtually a part of their fundamental right guaranteed under Article 16(Equality of opportunity in matter of public employment) of the Constitution," a bench comprising Justices R V Raveendran and A K Ganguly held in a recent judgement. The apex court passed the judgement while directing the Centre and the UP Government to consider the promotion of two State cadre officers-Hemraj Singh Chauhan and Ramnawal Singh to the IAS. "We hold that the statutory duty which is cast on the State Government and the Central Government to undertake the cadre review exercis

Five smart ways to use your bonus, DA windfall

Five smart ways to use your bonus, DA windfall Last week, the Union Cabinet provided relief to over five million central government employees by increasing the dearness allowance (DA) from 27 per cent to 35 per cent. It also increased the dearness relief (DR) for pensioners by 8 per cent. These amounts will be paid to employees and pensioners with retrospective effect, from January 2010. DA is calculated as a percentage of basic salary; DR is a percentage of basic pension, based on the cost of living index. Windfall gains are easier to dream about than manage. Here is some advice on using the money: Clear or reduce liabilities: Start with retiring high-cost credit card dues and personal loans. Even if you can't clear the entire debt in one go, start the process. Interest on credit card loans can be as high as 40-50 per cent a year and on personal loans between 12 per cent and 30 per cent. Govind Pathak, director, Acorn Wealth, said: "A home loan is the only one that

Don't dismiss personnel while appeal is pending: CAT

CENTRAL ADMINISTRATIVE TRIBUNAL: Don't dismiss personnel while appeal is pending: The Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT) has advised the Delhi Police against terminating services of personnel who are already convicted for an offence but whose appeals are still pending before higher courts. The Tribunal passed the order while giving relief to a former Delhi Police constable, convicted in 2007 by a lower court but was granted bail by the Delhi High Court in 2009. "Normally, a person who is undergoing imprisonment, will not be entitled to get reinstatement, as the two concepts do not go together. But that does not automatically mean that the Deputy Commissioner or Joint Commissioner were within their rights, to pass orders terminating the services of the applicant on the basis of the conviction, when an appeal was pending before the High Court," the Tribunal said.

Seniority not a fundamental right: CAT

Seniority not a fundamental right: Central Administrative Tribunal The Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT) has said that public employees cannot claim seniority as a "fundamental right". "As per the settled law, seniority is not a fundamental right of a public employee. It is only a civil right.
