Laks of salaries to the deputy press master who does not do any work

Laks of salaries to the deputy press master who does not do any work

Jul 19, 2016
State printing corporation workers questions for what reasons laks of salaries and incentives are paid to sustain the deputy press master position which comes under the media ministry.

The letter sent by the state printing workers union to the relevant ministry secretary, indicates the above.
 
The letter contains during the previous regime the former minister, ministry secretary and the relevant officer has jointly committed many discrepancies. Even after the good governance coming to power, the relevant officer is raising laks of wages and incentives without any official work and it is problematic why the ministry is not taking credible steps regarding the matter.
 
The letter contains qt present this officer has been attached to the media ministry and the workers have a serious problem about his position. With relevant to the position following the good governance coming to power the department has paid R. 14,93.343 as wages, incentives, transportation and for communication. Last year an official vehicle bearing KE 9536 was given to him and a sum of Rs. 2,05,68 was paid to him as fuel incentives. In addition another Rs. 60,000 was paid as communication charges but surprisingly Rs. 15,000 was paid as communication charges for the month November.
 
The workers said if the authorities don’t take any action against him there would be unrest among the workers. The state printing workers questions how good governance can exist if the irregularities of the former regime continue without a disruption. The union urges the media secretary to take relevant action against this
