JAIPUR: The state government has decided to alter the annual
increment period for government college lecturers, physical educators and librarians starting from January 2 to June 30, 2006 to start from January 1, 2006 like other employees.
The decision would benefit 456 employees. The order said these employees get the benefit notional from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2013 and would get the real benefit from July 2013.
It may be noted that the sixth UGC scale was introduced for government college lectures from October 12, 2009.
So the annual increment for such employees was fixed on July 1 2006. To get increment, there is a provision of minimum of six months service during a year.
So the government college lecturers were denied of a year’s increment as their increment was calculated from July 2007. The increment of other government employees in similar situations has been adjusted earlier while the college teachers were deprived of this benefit, said the order.
