Order to revise house rent rule

By
igeadmin
-

A husb- and and a wife who are government employees are both entitled to house rent allowance if one of them is posted a “reasonable distance” away from the other, Calcutta High Court has said.

The government now offers the allowance to either the husband or the wife if the distance between their workplaces is less than 250km.

But the court today ask- ed the government to redraw the house rent allowance policy using a “reasonable dis- tance” instead of 250km as the cut-off.

The matter came up during the hearing of a case moved by a Murshidabad teacher whose husband works for the railways in Calcutta.

Since Shukla Das’s hus-band stays 225km from her school in Kandi, she is not entitled to her house rent allowance, according to the rule that came into effect following a circular issued in October 2007. “She stays in a rented house at Purandarpur but she doesn’t get any rent allowance as her husband is already getting it,” said her lawyer Kaushik Chanda.

Das welcomed the order. “I had repeatedly told the authorities that I deserved the allowance but nothing happened. So, I moved court earlier this month.”

Opposing the petition, government lawyer Kamalesh Jha had said: “Fixing the house rent allowance for government employees is an administrative decision and the court should not interfere in the matter.”

However, Justice Biswanath Somadder said: “As the transport system and infrastructure in our country are not so developed that an employee can travel 450km a day to attend his/her place of work and return home, the government should fix a reasonable distance from home to the workplace if it wants to give house rent to only one of them.”

Before the 2007 circular, all state government employees were entitled to house rent allowance.

“When the government realised that working couples were drawing double house rent but sharing the same accommodation, it adopted the existing policy. But the 250km norm was impractical,” said Chanda.

2,500 Nagpur ZP pensioners yet to get arrears

By
igeadmin
-

The sixth pay commission may have brought in enough good news for both current and former government employees, but paucity of funds seems to be holding the cheers back. Around 2,500 retired employees of the Nagpur Zilla Parishad (ZP) are yet to receive the first installment of their pension arrears, even as the second installment becomes due on March 31. As per the recommendations of the pay panel, the retired were to receive pension as per the revised scale from January 1, 2006.

However, the recommendations were made much later and hence the state government decided to pay the extra money in the form of arrears in five installments. The first of these installments was due in June last year, but have not been paid. Even as the second installment becomes due on Wednesday, the accounts department of the Zilla Parishad is claiming that it does not have enough funds to pay the arrears. Chief accounts and finance officer A D Hemke told TOI that the state government has sent funds that are even lesser than last year and also recalled any surplus funds that may have been available with the ZP accounts department. That coupled with the salary revision of some of the ZP employees has further increased the amount of money to be distributed.

“Last year, the state government had given Rs 31 crore to distribute as salary and pension. This year, even though we have to pay the arrears along with the regular salary payments, we have received only Rs 28 crore. We have just two options. Either we stop regular payments and pay arrears, or we stop arrears and continue the regular payments, including pension and salary,” Hemke said. “Nevertheless, we have already applied for an additional grant of the Rs 3 crore to be released by the state government. If it arrives by March 31, then we will be in a position to pay the arrears. Under the present circumstances, we are even lagging behind in paying people who subscribe to certain schemes,” he added.

The non-payment of these arrears is causing a lot of problems. Sources claimed that several elderly women, who are supposed to receive the arrears on behalf of their deceased husbands, are suffering because of this.
