Pay commission ?

actually, if we carefully analyse the various pay commissions in the past there had been steady erosion in the pay. Just compare the gold price at the time of I CPC [1946] and the pay of an newly recruited employee then and that of the VI CPC[2006] now. This is called wage erosion. The steady fall of value of the rupee and the ever spiralling price rise snatch away any slender increase in the wages. The Finance Commission and the Planning Commission headed by a man who could spend lakhs of rupees for renovation of his office toilets and preach austerity measures for the employees and common man will never bother about all these things. Its our bounden duty to educate rank and file and mobilise them against all these injustice.
