Questioner session was arranged by Shri Chandran Thomas for all the present members:
1) Why are we not including DR TTAs with us?
He explained in details that DR TTAs are also running on the boat similar to that of DR JTO, like 30% superannuation, Brining pay parity within TTA cadre. He expressed his willingness to include TTAs in this agitation because until the pay scale of executive is fixed properly pay scale of non executive will not get fixed. He extended his full support from AIGETOA side in future.
2) Why not we are printing pamphlets and distribute amongst all the members so that those who are not into the agitation can also get educated?
CHQ has noted this wonderful suggestion and will think in this perspective, considering economical status in purview.
Issue pertaining to CHQ from Karnataka Circle was handed over to AIP by CP Shri Ashok Y Shigli
