Granting MACP on Promotional Hierarchy

The Central Administrative Tribunal’s (CAT) order  (OA No. 1038/CH/ 2010) on granting benefit of financial upgradation under MACPS in the promotional hierarchy has been  upheld by the High Court (CWP No.19387 of 2011) and the Supreme Court (SLP No.CC 7467/2013).

It is indeed a good news for all the central government employees federations who fought for granting MACP on Promotional Hierarchy. As a result of the Court decision, NFIR writes to the Railway Board to issue the necessary order at the earliest. The copy of the letter is given below..
