The Sixth Pay Commission has recommended improvement/upgradation of the Pay Structure/Grade pay of almost all cadres of Government of India Offices. But the Pay/Grade Pay of LDC & UDC, who is working hard to run the administrative offices especially the Subordinate Offices smoothly, has been downgraded. In the mean time the Pay Commission has raised the educational and technical qualifications of a person to get selected to the post of LDC viz. educational qualification from Matriculation to 10+2 and proficiency in computer education etc.  Implementation Committee of the 6th Pay Commission at Government level has also not cared to bridge the gap. Aggrieved over the severe lapse, Shri TKR Pillai, General Secretary, All India Association of Ministerial Staff (Group C), Ministry of Statistics & Programme Implementation has sent an appeal to the Prime Minister, Government of India vide letter dated 16/04/2010 and requested the upgradation of the  grade pay of the UDC & LDC to Rs. 2800 (copy enclosed in Annexure III).
