Hyderabad: Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) president N Uttam Kumar Reddy on Saturday demanded that State government immediately announce the Pay Revision Commission for the employees, teachers and pensioners.

In an open letter to Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao, Uttam Kumar Reddy said that nearly 4 lakh teachers and employees and about 3 lakh pensioners have been desperately waiting for the announcement of new scales to be announced by Pay Revision Commission.

He said that teachers and employees had played a major role during the separate statehood movement and risked their jobs and careers by participating in 42-day long Sakala Janula Samme. They expected a better future and financial growth after formation of Telangana but they have been meted out with raw deal.

Uttam said that the new PRC should have been applied from July 1, 2018.

However, he said that the announcement of 11th PRC has been delayed by almost 20 months causing huge financial losses to the employees and teachers.

With the State government extending the term of PRC by another six months, the employees are forced to face mental agony for longer.

He reminded that the previous Congress regime had declared 39 per cent fitment and other benefits in the 9th PRC.

Again in 2013, the Congress regime announced 10th PRC five months in advance and when the report was delayed, 27 per cent interim relief was announced in order to reduce the burden on the employees.

He said steps were also taken to announce 43 per cent fitment under 10th PRC.
