I had been appointed as Jr. Stenographers in Gr. Rs.1200-2040 (RPS) on 22.09.1988 on Railways. Further, I had been promoted to Sr. Stenographers in Gr. Rs.1400-2600 (IVth Pay) / 5000-8000 (RSRP) PB-II Rs.9300-34800 (NPS) + Grade Pay Rs.4200/- w.e.f. 14.06.1994. During my entire service of 28 years, I had got only one promotion on 14.06.1994. Further I got the Ist MACP Grade Pay Rs.4600/- in September, 2008.
Whereas some Clerical / technical employees from have got the MACP benefits in time as per the above criteria. It is learnt that staff of various other Departments / Divisions of Central Railway including Western Railways have given MACP scheme in terms of above criteria. However, Stenographers are deprived of giving MACP / promotion in time.
As per the guidelines stipulated that even though the MACPS Scheme is continuing to be administered at 10, 20 and 30 years as before also.
Sir, kindly confirms if I am eligible for Ist MACP in 2004 and 2nd MACP in 2014 respectively at par with the Clerical / technical employees were given MACP benefits as per the above criteria.
