HYDERABAD: Chief Minister K. Rosaiah has sought the cooperation of employees for expeditious implementation of the decisions taken by the government to ensure that the benefits of various welfare schemes and programmes reached targeted sections. Addressing government employees for the first time after he took over as Chief Minister at a meeting organised by the AP Secretariat Employees Co-ordination Committee (APSECC) on Monday, Mr. Rosaiah said the government and the employees were like a joint family working for common goals. A decision taken by the government would remain in cold storage if the employees ignored it.
He narrated the circumstances under which he had to take reins of the administration following the tragic death of Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy. Referring to a demand raised by APSECC, he said that if any anomalies were found in implementation of the Pay Revision Commission's recommendation, they would be rectified before the next PRC was constituted.
He said he would take a decision soon on APSECC's plea to fix nominal rates for the land allotted to employees' organisations for housing.
Earlier, APSCECC chairman M. Hanumantha Reddy put forth a long list of staff demands, including health cards for the staff, special allowance to drivers and stenographers, implementation of 5-day week, construction of a multiple parking complex in the Secretariat, appointment of additional staff and installation of mineral water plants in each of the eight blocks. He also sought allotment of lands for housing.
Chief Secretary S. V. Prasad, principal secretary (political) R. M. Gonela were present.
