FAST TRACK COMMITTEE - Mainly for MCM

There are cases like the Master Craftsmen, where the existing pay scales have been reduced to a lower scale. To consider these types of cases, a fast track committee may be set up.
It was informed that the certain categories like Master Craftsman in Railways are in 5000-8000 scale whereas now they have been brought down to 4500. Secretary staff side emphasized that similarly in case of Pharmacists the whole background placed before the Pay commission is wrong therefore, wrong decision has been taken.

It need to be corrected immediately. In the case of the Master craftsmen in Ministry of Defence and LDC also similar anomaly exists. They have requested to set up the Fast Track Committee in the concerned department to resolve.

The Chairman requested them to inform if they notice any such anomaly in near future in some other category also.

Demand of the staff side was noted by the official side.
