Appeal to All Affiliated Organizations of Confederation, Odisha State CoC

Dear Comrades,

Greetings.

As you are aware, the Eighth Central Pay Commission has issued a notice announcing its visit to Bhubaneswar on 6th and 7th July, 2026 for interaction with stakeholders, including organizations, institutions, associations and unions of Central Government employees.

In view of this important development, and as discussed and decided jointly by the President and the General Secretary of the Confederation, Odisha State Coordination Committee, we propose to meet the Commission along with the Executive Heads of our affiliated organizations, subject to the number of representatives permitted by the Commission. This interaction provides us with a valuable opportunity to place before the Commission the genuine aspirations, concerns and expectations of Central Government employees and pensioners of Odisha.

All affiliated organizations are therefore requested to immediately initiate discussions within their respective organizations and forward their views, suggestions and specific demands relating to pay revision, allowances, pensionary benefits, service conditions and other related issues. These inputs will help us prepare a comprehensive and representative memorandum on behalf of the Confederation.

The Commission has stipulated 31st May, 2026 as the last date for submission of memoranda and 15th June, 2026 as the last date for seeking an appointment for interaction. Accordingly, we intend to submit our memorandum within the prescribed time and seek an appointment for meeting the Commission at Bhubaneswar.

This is a historic opportunity that may shape the service conditions of Central Government employees and pensioners for the next decade. We therefore appeal to all affiliates to extend their fullest cooperation, maintain close coordination with the Confederation, and send their suggestions and demands at the earliest so that a strong, united and well-reasoned case can be presented before the Eighth Central Pay Commission.

Let us work together to ensure that the voice of the employees of Odisha is heard effectively and forcefully before the Commission.

With fraternal greetings,

= Com. Bruhaspati Samal =
