After a gap of about 10 years the JCM meeting was held yesterday. Vice Chairperson KVS presided over the meeting. I may say the meeting is successful in the sense it is the beginning of a new chapter, thanks to the court case by KEVINTSA. As usual KVS side attitude was negative on almost all issues. I am waiting for official minutes which may be available in a fortnight. Without getting the official minutes its difficult to sound on the decisions of the meeting but I may hint on the positive outcome.
  1. MACP issue pending with the HRD Ministry has not been rejected, JCM decided that the matter may be pursued for early orders.
  2. No discussion on implementation of KVS version of RTE since the matter is subjudice. However Madam Chairperson desired the AIKVTA to discuss the matter of disciplinary action initiated against the AIKVTA members for participating in the agitation on 16th March with the Commissioner KVS and only then, subject to further dispute , the matter may be brought to her notice.
  3. JCM decided that in selection- promotion of Teachers, a cut off mark to determine the eligibility( pass mark) of applicants will be fixed and there after all those who are above the cut off mark will get promotion as per seniority in service. The earlier method of merit list based promotion has been done away.
  4. Yoga teachers will be transferred to their choice stations with post in case there is no vacancy in the station they request for.
  5. Though there is no provision in guide lines, still no taker vacancies and mutual transfer cases will be considered by KVS.
  6. Ministry of Health will be pursued by KVS to extend CGHS facility to KV employees since a section of KVS employees are already availing the facility.
  7. KVS has taken up the case of change over from CPF to GPF with the Finance Ministry and the matter will be pursued further.
  8. The demand for five day week will be sent for consideration of BOG again.
  9. The employees representation on KVS,BOG and AAC will be put for consideration of BOG.
  10. KVS will examine the matter of grant of spl. EL to employees who were on census duty in the light of GOI orders in that respect.
  11. Management side did not agree to grant higher grade pay to PRTs ; at par with other employees of KVS in the pay scale of 6500/- citing the cadre difference.
  12. BOG decision to increase the pay scales of KV Teachers and the decision to set up a committee under the chairmanship of Vice Chairman KVS has been put on hold by Govt. orders, hence there is no possibility at all.
  13. Similarly on teachers work load issue also the management was very negative.
This what I recall about the deliberations in JCM but this is subject to minutes approved by the Chairperson of JCM.

केंद्रीय विद्यालयों में सांसदों का कोटा दो से बढ़कर छह
जागरण ब्यूरो, नई दिल्ली : अगले महीने शुरू होने वाले संसद के मानसून सत्र के पहले केंद्र ने सांसदों को बड़ा तोहफा दे दिया है। कभी केंद्रीय विद्यालयों के दाखिले में संासदों का कोटा खत्म करने की वकालत करने वाले मानव संसाधन विकास मंत्री कपिल सिब्बल ने एक शैक्षिक सत्र में दाखिला कोटा दो से बढ़ाकर छह कर दिया है। जिन सांसदों के क्षेत्र में केंद्रीय विद्यालय नहीं हैं, वे पड़ोस के केंद्रीय विद्यालयों में दाखिले की सिफारिश कर सकेंगे। खास बात यह है कि उसमें किसी कक्षा में छात्रों की पहले से तय सीटें भी आड़े नहीं आएंगी। मानव संसाधन विकास मंत्री कपिल सिब्बल की अध्यक्षता में हुई केंद्रीय विद्यालय संगठन बोर्ड की बैठक में सांसदों के दाखिले की सिफारिश का दायरा बढ़ाने की मंजूरी दी गई। सिब्बल के मुताबिक, कोटा बढ़ाने की मांग लगातार हो रही थी। अब कोई भी सांसद अपने क्षेत्र के केंद्रीय विद्यालय में आधा दर्जन दाखिले की सिफारिश कर सकेगा। अभी लोकसभा के 142 सांसदों के संसदीय क्षेत्र में केंद्रीय विद्यालय नहीं हैं। बताते हैं कि अब वे अपने पड़ोस के केंद्रीय विद्यालयों में दाखिले की सिफारिश कर सकेंगे। राज्यसभा के संासद अपने राज्य के किसी भी केंद्रीय विद्यालय में सिफारिश कर सकेंगे जबकि, मनोनीत सदस्यों की सिफारिश किसी भी हिस्से के केंद्रीय विद्यालय में लागू हो सकेगी।
