For the first time in 10 years, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will meet the staff representatives in the national-level Joint Consultative Mechanism of the Union government employees and the Personnel Ministry.

The Personnel Ministry has sent an invitation to JCM Secretary Shiv Gopal Mishra and other members of the staff side of the JCM to meet Mr. Modi on Saturday. The issue of restoring the old pension scheme is likely to come up in the meeting.


Mr. Mishra told The Hindu that the staff representatives had sought an audience with Mr. Modi. “We are in touch with the government on several issues. We wanted to meet the Prime Minister too on our issues,” he said, adding that restoration of the old pension scheme is an important issue that is not resolved yet.

The unions of Centre and Central PSU employees had earlier decided to go on an indefinite strike from May 1. It was deferred following discussions with the government.
