6th Pay Commission Articles

There must be a fair & healthy comparison between pay scales and perquisites in Government and the public/private sector since, the educational qualifications, quantum of work, skills and talents are almost similar for all jobs.

Comparison can be drawn within similar category having some common feature and in this point of view it is quite impossible to draw a comparison between Govt. & Pvt. Sector as there are so many hidden perks and allowance given to the employees of Pvt.

Broadly speaking it is possible and even if it is not entirely possible, yet there can be a fair comparison between salaries in the Government vis-à-vis the salaries in the private sector.

Yes, how can one arrive at a conclusion as to who is placed at disadvantage vis-à-vis Public/Private Sector. In my personal opinion there should be a national pay scale without any discrimination but perks/packages may differ as the situation demands. But the Govt. itself in favours of discriminatory policy

There is no question of comparision/parity between pay scalesand perquisites in Government and the public/private sectors. Because private/public sectors aim and object is totally commercial & working with an intention of profit.

The comparison (and demand for parity) in pay scales and perquisites in Government and Public Sector are not only valid but absolutely justified on the basis of principles of natural justice and law of equity and fair play enshrined in Articles 14, 16 and 39 of the Constitution of India, and which has been repeatedly upheld by various courts including the Supreme Court of India in numerous cases.

Firstly as Railway men, we, Indian Railway Permanent Way Engineers’ Association, demand separate Pay Commission to look in to our nature of work and problems for fixing our pay scales, especially for open line employees of Railways.

Some countries have raised civil service pay scales almost to levels prevalent in the private sector on the hypothesis that a well-paid bureaucracy is likely to be honest and diligent. To what extent would such a hypothesis be valid and how far would such a course of action be desirable?

Comparison is inevitable when we live in an open, modern society. Further, in the job market if the Government wants to obtain and retain talent, comparison is called for, if not parity.

we the teachers of Railway Schools suffer excessive loss in promotional matters. As the number of railway school in a particular medium is very meager, so one should get A.C.P. in a particular scale within 8 (eight) years, instead of 12 years
