In an April 30 order, the Department of Personnel and Training announced the setting up of a seven-member excessive-stage expert committee headed by way of Ratan P. Watal, IAS (retd.) and former Finance Secretary and major adviser NITI Aayog to “have a look at numerous elements of the recommendation of 7th CPC on NFU.” Separately, a case concerning granting NFU to the Services is presently pending inside the Supreme Court.
Left out
“Group A services within the government already enjoy the NFU popularity, and it changed into recently granted for the Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs) as nicely. So it’s far simplest the military, who really want NFU due to the steep pyramidal shape, who are ignored,” a defense supply stated.
The direction of movement is being debated, the source brought.
NFU entitles all officials of a batch who aren’t promoted to draw the salary and grade pay that the seniormost officer of their batch after certain seniority.
In the past, too, the Services had taken up the matter with the MoD after the 7th CPC recommended NFU for the offerings. In April 2017, Army Chief General Bipin Rawat had written to the Defence Minister Arun Jaitley highlighting the discrepancies in equivalence and parity between defense force and their civilian counterparts due to the lack of NFU despite army employees having a lengthy carrier. “Unfortunately, grade pay and degree have been linked to repute,” Gen. Rawat had determined within the letter.

The other thing is to suggest a “clean definition of OGAS (Organised Group A Service), to make a clear difference in the approaches of care assessment and the method for grant of OGAS.” The committee is asked to publish its record to the Cabinet Secretary within a length of 30 days from its constitution, the order stated.
Mixed verdict
The Sixth Pay Commission had granted NFU to maximum Group ‘A’ officials; however, now not the army. Since then, the military has been traumatic a one-time notional NFU to make sure parity. However, the 7th CPC gave a blended verdict on it, and the anomalies committee has stated the difficulty following robust objection from the 3 Services.
In December 2016, the Principal Bench of AFT, New Delhi, granted NFU to militia personnel in pay and allowances in reaction to a petition filed by several serving officers. The very last arguments had been currently heard after repeated delays using the MoD, and the courtroom has reserved judgment.
