Leaders of the Andhra Pradesh United Teachers’ Federation on Thursday slammed the government for its ‘delaying tactics” on the Contributory Pension Scheme (CPS).
In a statement, federation president N. Venkateswarlu and general secretary K.S.S. Prasad said Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, who had promised to repeal the CPS within week days of assuming charge as the Chief Minister, had not done so even after three years.
The government had also gone back on its word given on the Pay Revision Commission (PRC), they alleged. The promise to announce a road map before March 31 on implementation of the PRC was not kept, they pointed out, taking exception to “repeated postponements of the meeting”.
They said the government should stop seeing PRC as a vote bank issue and consider the woes of the employees and make its stand clear on it.
