Resolution adopted in the Annual Conference of the Non-Gazetted Government Officers’ Association, Andaman and Nicobar Islands held on 25 – 26 April, 2009 at Port Blair


The Annual Conference of the Non-Gazetted Govt. Officers’ Association, Andaman and Nicobar Islands being held on 25 – 26 April, 2009 at Port Blair, notes with concern that there is no forum available in Andaman and Nicobar Islands for discussion and resolving the issues of government employees working under the Administration. There are about 26000 government employees and workers under the A & N Administration. A number of issues/demands put up by this Association, which is the largest Service Association in the islands, every year are not being considered favourably. The Union Territory of Andaman and Nicobar Islands is directly administered by the Govt. of India through the Ministry of Home Affairs. The Association notes that demands/problems of government employees working under the Andaman and Nicobar Administration can be resolved if a Regional Council of the Joint Consultative Committee (JCM) under the Ministry of Home Affairs is formed in these islands.

The Annual Conference of the Association, therefore, resolved to urge upon the Govt. of India to take immediate steps to set up a Regional Council of the JCM under the Ministry of Home Affairs, Govt. of India, so that the issues/ demands can be discussed and resolved amicably.
