(Author's opinion)
10) TIME RELATED
CONTINUITY ALLOWANCE (TRCA)
The basic pay itself for
the GDS is also called as an allowance.
Is
there any provision in our Constitution or CCA Rules or State Laws or any
pay rules that the basic allowance of an employee (?) in a Central Govt.
department is allowed with many other allowances besides for calculation of
retirement benefits ( eg: ex gratia gratuity) and ex gratia bonus with
ceiling.
An
employee (?) in this country drawing some amount for his service to the
management as is viz., pay, wage, salary, remuneration, allowance, perks etc.,
perhaps this type of (pay) structure is exceptional to Gramin Dak Sevaks.
After
a keen constitutional and judicial observation on the attitude of the
Department , Justice Chandrajit sing Talwar(1996) has rightly pointed out that
the department is still under ambiguity and confusion to decide the status of
the EDAs (now called GDS) and except to accept that EDAs (GDS) are holders of
civil post by extending all benefits to them.
