Imphal, January 07 2010:
The government employees of Manipur stick to their stand of taking up the proposed cease-work strike from January 16 even though the state government has recommended the extension of the Sixth Pay Commission to the employees.
The government employees under the aegis of Joint Administrative Council (JAC) of All Manipur Trade Unions Council (AMTUC) and All Manipur Government Employees Organisation (AMGEO) had announced earlier to carry out the agitation demanding the fulfilment of their 14-point charter of demands of which the implementation of the 6th Pay Commission is among them.
Talking to NNN today, secretary of the JAC Basumani said that since the remaining 13-charter of demands are yet to be implemented the proposed agitation will be carried out as scheduled.
It is pertinent to note that the Secular Progressive Front (SPF)'s Cabinet had recommended yesterday in its meeting.
