Vijayawada World Veterinary Day celebrated
Staff Reporter .HINDHU NEWS PAPER

VIJAYAWADA: The World Veterinary Day was celebrated in a grand manner in the city on Saturday. Felicitations to senior veterinarians, and people who excelled in the fields related to veterinary sciences marked the celebrations. కృష్ణa District collector S.A.M. Rizvi said that the Krishna district was far ahead of other districts with regard to animal population, more particularly cross bred milch cattle. The cross bred milch cattle population was 80 per cent compared to the 20 per cent of the country breed bovines. It was a result of sustained efforts of veterinarians in the district. Rural economy Without letting any scope for complacency, the veterinarians should continue their endeavours in this direction as rural economy was dependent on animal population also, he said. The human-animal relationship was older than agriculture on this globe. The dependence of human on animals was more compared to plants. And, it signifies the importance of veterinarians, he felt.

ANIMAL HUSBANDRY DEPARTMENT -TAMILNADU.

VETERINARY ASSISTANT SURGEON
The Tamil Nadu Veterinary Assistant Surgeons Association has
requested to revise the scale of pay of Veterinary Assistant Surgeon from
Rs.9300—34800 + Grade Pay of 4700/- to Rs.15600—39100 + Grade Pay of
Rs.5400/- on par with the Veterinary Officers in Government of India.
The One Man Commission 1998 has already examined the request of the
Association seeking revision of scale of pay of Veterinary Assistant Surgeon.
The Commission has made the following recommendation:-
“After an in depth study of the qualification of the Veterinary Assistant
Surgeons, the Fifth Central Pay Commission has improved the scale of pay of
Veterinary Assistant Surgeon on par with Civil Assistant Surgeons with
M.B.B.S. qualification. This Commission has decided to adopt Central Pay
parity for the comparable posts in the State in consonance with the policy of
Government. Considering the qualification, identical job factors and scale
levels of the Veterinary Assistant Surgeons and the similar post in
Government of India, this Commission recommends revision of scale of pay of
the post of Veterinary Assistant Surgeon from Rs.6500—11100 to
Rs.8000—13500”.Further, the Commission observed that based on the recommendations of the Sixth Central Pay Commission the parity with General Duty Medical Officers and Dental Doctors and Veterinary Officers requiring a Degree in
B.V.Sc., in Animal Husbandry along with registration in the Veterinary Council
of India has been continued and they have been placed in the scale of pay of
Rs.15600—39100 + Grade Pay of Rs.5400/- in the revised pay structure.
The Commission therefore taking into account the similarity in qualification
and job factors of this post in the State Government and Government of India,
endorses the recommendation made by the earlier One Man
Commission 1998. Accordingly, the Commission recommends that the scale
of pay for the post of Veterinary Assistant Surgeon in Animal Husbandry
Department may be revised from Rs.9300—34800 + Grade Pay of Rs.4700/-
to Rs.15600—39100 + Grade Pay of Rs.5400/-. Consequently, the
Commission also recommends that the scale of pay of the promotion post
viz., Assistant Director may be revised from Rs.15600—39100 + Grade Pay of
Rs.5400/- to Rs.15600—39100 + Grade Pay of Rs.5700/-.
STATISTICAL OFFICERS
The Tamil Nadu Government Officials’ Union has requested to revise
the scale of pay for the post of Statistical Officers from Rs.9300—34800 +
Grade Pay of Rs.4500/- to Rs.15600—39100 + Grade Pay of Rs.5400/-.
Though there is no hierarchical relativity of the Statistical Officer and the
Superintendent the Commission finds that their counterparts in Economic and
Statistics department are placed one level above at Rs.6500—10500
(Pre-revised). In order to maintain the horizontal pay relativity,
the Commission considers it reasonable to revise the pay scale of Statistical
Officer in Animal Husbandry Department on par with the similar post in
Economics and Statistics Department. Hence, the Commission recommends
that the scale of pay of Statistical Officer in Animal Husbandry Department
may be revised from Rs.9300—34800 + Grade Pay of Rs.4500/- to
Rs.9300—34800 + Grade Pay of Rs.4600/-.
STATISTICAL INSPECTOR
Tamil Nadu Government Officials Union has requested to revise the
scale of pay for the post of Statistical Inspector from Rs.9300—34800 +
Grade Pay of Rs.4300/- to Rs.9300—34800 + Grade Pay of Rs.4400/-.
The Commission finds that the post of Statistical Inspector in the
Economics & Statistics Department is placed at Rs.9300—34800 +
Grade Pay of Rs.4400/-. Hence, the Commission finds justification to revise
the scale of pay for the post of Statistical Inspector in Animal Husbandry
Department on par with their counterparts in Economics and Statistics
Department and accordingly recommends revision of scale of pay of this post
from Rs.9300—34800 + Grade Pay of Rs.4300/- to Rs.9300—34800 +
Grade Pay of Rs.4400/-.
DAIRY EXTENSION ASSISTANT
The Tamil Nadu Livestock Inspectors Association has requested
to revise the scale of pay of Dairy Extension Assistant from Rs.9300—34800
+ Grade Pay 4200 to Rs.9300—34800 + Grade Pay 4600 on par with Animal
Supervisor in Central Government and the Assistant Section Officers in the
Tamil Nadu Secretariat Service. The Commission observed that the
qualification prescribed for this post is SSLC with diploma in Animal
Husbandry or 11 months Live Stock Inspector Course. The qualification,
nature of work and job responsibilities of this post is not at all comparable with
that of Assistant Section Officers in Secretariat. The Commission therefore
do not find any valid reason to revise the existing pay scale.
TAMIL NADU VETERINARY AND ANIMAL SCIENCES UNIVERSITY
The Registrar, TANVAS has pointed out that a Typist (SG) in the scale
of pay of Rs.5200—20200 + Grade Pay Rs.2400/- when promoted as Typist
Grade-I in the scale of pay of Rs.5200—20200 + Grade Pay Rs.2400/-,
there is no benefit since the scale of pay for the above two posts are identical
( i.e.), there is no difference in the Grade Pay corresponding to the
Promotional post and feeder post and therefore requested to rectify this
anomaly. The Commission finds that Typists who opt to remain in the Typist
line on completion of 18 years of service are entitled for promotion as Typist,
Grade—I. The Commission observed that no change has been made in the
system of sanctioning one increment benefit on promotion among posts on
identical scales of pay in the revised pay structure.
Representations have also been received from the Tamil Nadu
Livestock Inspectors Association / Individuals requesting revision of scale of
pay for the following posts:-
SENIOR VETERINARY AND LIVESTOCK SUPERVISOR
Rs.9300—34800 + Grade Pay of Rs.4600/- Rs.15600—39100 + Grade Pay of Rs.5400/-
LIVESTOCK INSPECTOR, GRADE-I
Rs.9300—34800 + Grade Pay of Rs.4200/- Rs.9300—34800 + Grade Pay Rs.4600/- LIVESTOCK INSPECTOR, GRADE-II
Rs.5200—20200 + Grade Pay of Rs.2400/- Rs.9300—34800 + Grade Pay Rs.4200/-
ANIMAL HUBANDRY ASSISTANT
Rs.4800—10000 + Grade Pay of Rs.1400/- Rs.5200—20200 + Grade Pay of Rs.2000/-
PLANT OPERATOR

Rs.5200—20200 + Grade Pay of Rs.2600/- Rs.5200—20200 + Grade Pay rs.800
The Commission examined the above requests based on the qualifications,
nature of duties, job responsibilities attached to these posts and also the local
relativities and finds no anomaly in the existing scales of pay of these
categories.
