Subject : -Boycott of Central Excise Day on 24.02.2013 by
                 Inspectors.            
.  
                           
 Revered Sir,
                            It is very sad and unpleasant to say that in view of the continuing attitude of apathy  and indifference of the CBEC and the Government of India to the appallingly poor career prospects available to Inspectors of Central Excise and  abject stagnation being faced by them for decades , very wide  disparities in promotions within and among the three cadres of Inspectors of Central Excise/ Preventive Officers of Customs/Examiners of Customs to the Gazetted Gr B posts and further to the Gr A, and several other major grievances put forward by this Association from time to time, we find no reason to join in the Central Excise Day celebrations planned by the Department for 24.02.2013. A communication to the above effect has already been sent by the All India Secretary General of our Association to the Chairperson, CBEC, on 7th February, 2013. 

         Accordingly it is informed that all members of this Association in Chandigarh Circle comprising of Chandigarh Zone, will be boycotting all official functions and celebrations in connection with the upcoming Central  Excise Day.

          We are extremely sorry and beg that these facts may be brought to the notice of the Chairperson, CBEC.
Yours sincerely,


(BHAGWAN SINGH)
GENERAL SECRETARY. 

WITH REGARDS,

GENERAL SECRETARY.
