Dear friends and Comrades, The All India Executive/Associate Committee Meeting of AIACEGEO was held at Bangalore on 30.06.2018. 53 Delegates from various parts of the Country representing 24 Units of our Association participated. The GS of Hyderabad Unit and Com. Vigneswara Raju from Hyderabad also attended as Special Invitees. The meeting took note of various developments/non-developments in the department pertaining to the Cadre and passed important resolutions. Some of the units insisted that due to the neglect of the cadre before and after the implementation of GST, demoralisation of the cadre at the grass root level, a boycott of the GST day would serve to draw the attention of the Government to our plight.  However, considering that the new Chairman Shri. S. Ramesh was taking charge only on 30.06.2018/01.07.2018, it was decided that we should give him some time to take stock of the situation.  It was also widely felt that he would be responsive to the grievances of the

Suggestions for celebration of GST Day

Some units have contacted me stating that their members wanted to boycott GST Day due to the unfair treatment meted out to us. The latest of course is that the department is likely to file a review petition against the Judgment in M. Subramaniam case (5400).  But considering that it is too short a time to consult all units and take any decision and since it is a transition time with the new Chairman taking over only at this point of time, no such decision is being taken now. However, the above letter has been sent as suggested by our units to record the discontent in the cadre.

WELCOMING THE NEW CHAIRMAN
