The government has given us a sugar coated pill. It is not only Cols and Brigs who have been upgraded to Pay Band- 4 but also civilians who were junior to Colonels and Brigadiers, and in certain cases even junior to Lieutant Colonels. Our interests should be guarded by those people in Army HQ who are able to keep a hawk- eye on all these issues. Unfortunately, instead of real intelligence, Staff College seems to be the benchmark of intellect in the forces. And we all know what we did in Wellington.
The official press release by Govt of India very nicely says on Point No 6 that Cols and Brigs have been placed in the highest Pay Band- 4 but please go on and see Point No 10 of the same release and you would find that even officers equivalent to Lt Col have been placed in Pay Band-4, so what special has been done for faujis ? Our status has in fact been brought down, first by the SCPC and now by the Anomalies panel. The official press release is available on 6th Pay panel Implemented
The pre-revised scale of Suptd Engineer of MES and Director to Govt of India: Rs 14,300-18,300. The pre-revised scale of Lt Col: Rs 15,100- 18,700 (More pay than the above). The post revised SCPC scale of Suptd Engineer of MES and DIrector to Govt of India: Rs 39,200-67,000. The post revised SCPC scale of Lt Col: Rs15,900- 39,100
