Subject: Sufferings of employees belonging to Administrative
Cadres working in Prasar Bharati.
Respected Sir,
On behalf of the Staff belonging to the Administrative
cadres
recruited exclusively for Prasar Bharati i.e. Doordarshan and
AIR, I
would like to bring your kind attention to the following facts
which
will make it evident that the Ministry of Information
Broadcasting
rather than observing the guidelines of the Government of India
are
on the contrary inventing and cobbling new methods and
arrangements which has caused huge sufferings to the
employees
working in Prasar Bharati especially the Administrative cadres
which
has resulted in blocking the career progression of a large
number of
employees, causing financial loss and also triggered
numerous
litigations.
2. The Government and Prasar Bharati are aware that in terms
of
the DoP T vide O.M. No. AB.14017 /37 /2009-Estt. (RR) dated
8 1 2 1
Annexure-I), in cases of convers ion of Government
Departments into PSUs/ Autonomous/Statutory body has laid
down a maximum period of 5 years for framing of rules and
another 2 years for phasing out repatriation to those opting
to
come back to Government. This is in the context of persons
on
deemed deputation to Prasar Bharati like the Administrative
staff
cadres. However in brazen violation of the Government of
India
instructions even after 16 years of formation of Prasar Bharati,
the
Ministry of I
B has failed to frame the Rules and Regulations
under the Act at least to regulate the service conditions,
promotions
etc. of the employees of Prasar Bharati. Such a serious lapse
and
negligence on the part of officers, officials of Ministry of
Information
Broadcasting has caused serious damage to the careers
of
employees and should not be condoned. The responsibility lies
with
the senior most persons in the Management.

2. The DoP T vide O.M. NoA/23/2013-P PW(D) dated21/10/2014
Annexure-II
in the context of compliance of provisions of Rule 37A
/37B on conversion of a Government Department into an
Autonomous Body created under the control of Ministry of I
B /
Prasar Bharati had sought detailed information from the
Prasar
Bharati.
3. It is also to be noted that the Cabinet in its meeting held
on
29.1.2009 had decided as follows:
(iii) All the employees referred to in (i)
(ii) above shall be entitled
to the pay scales and all other benefits as per their
entitlement as
Central Government employees. However they shall not be
entitled to any deputation allowance.
Annexure-III
Unfortunately even after 16 years whereas subordinate
Programme and Engineering employees of Prasar Bharati are
enjoying incentives granted by Ministry of Information
Broadcasting with all pensionery benefits of non-Government
/Prasar
Bharati pay scales, the administrative staff exclusively
recruited for Doordarshan and AIR and who are not
transferable
have been treated as common cadres similar to those serving
in
other Government departments. This premise and concept is
entirely wrong and has caused irreparable loss to employees
belonging to these administrative cadres.
4. Further, abdicating their responsibility towards employees of
the
Government like us working in Prasar Bharati, the Pay
Commission
has also not made any recommendation on the posts of Prasar
Bharati since it is an autonomous body and outside the terms
of
reference of the Commission. Annexure-IV The Government
did
not point out to the Commission about the misconception
regarding
our status i.e. of Government employees serving in the
Prasar
Bharati. Even the Ministry of Information
Broadcasting has not
bothered to deal with the continuous problem faced by us.
5. In brief the Government or the management of Prasar Bharati
is
not adhering to the norms and instructions issued by the
Government.
It is an example of developing an attitude of apathy for a
large
number of employees of AIR and Doordarshan like us.
