CHQ has been continuing the efforts for payment of frozen IDA instalments due on 01-10-2020,01-01-2021 and 01-04-2021 since 22-11-2020. AIBDPA has rightly taken a stand that the DPE orders dated 19-11-2020, freezing the IDA instalments was applicable only to Executives and Non-Unionised Supervisors of CPSEs. We took up the issue by writing a letter on 22-11-2020 to the Minister for Heavy Industries and Public Enter prises with copy to Secretary,DPE and Secretary,DoT. When there was no reponse even after reminders, we sought the help of Com.P R Natarajan MP from Coimbatore who always extends a helping hand. Com.P R Natarajan also wrote to the Minister of Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises for his intervention . The Minister replied fully vindicating our stand clarifying that the OM of DPE dated 19-11-2020 in not applicable to workmen and pensioners of CPSEs. DPE also issued a clarification on similar lines and forwarded our letter to Secretary, DoT for further necessary action. However, DoT did not respond which warranted us to file a writ petition in the hon’ble High Court of Kerala and the court issued a favourable Interim Order on the seme date. But the DoT is still unmoved and therefore we brought it to the notice of Com.P R Natarajan MP and he has promptly written to the hon’ble Minister of Communications for early settlement by implementing the court order and the clarifications issued by the concerned minister and DPE. We express our sincere gratitude to Com.P R Natarajan MP for his kind gesture.
