Dear Mr. Niraj,
I feel a litle confused. the above post says this form needs to be filled up by individuals but the contents of the form reflect otherwise. Please inform who needs to fill up this form - The Head of the Library, The Head of the Institution or any individual working at any position in a Central Govt. Library.
Also what about Autonomous Units and also what is the objective of collecting this data?
I would also like to know how can we check the activties of GILA and be a member of it , eligibilities etc ?
Please clarify.so that concerned professionals can revert back.
Thanking you in anticipation,
With Best Regards,
Pragya

Incharge of the library may fill up the form. He may be Librarian or LIA, ALIO, LIO or Director.
There is no need to send the data of Autonomous body, becoz Anomaly Committee has been constituted only for Central Government so their is required the data, only of Central Govt. Libraries.
General Body Meeting of GILA is going to held on 03 August 2012 at National Museum in Delhi. So you may get status of GILA.

Dear Mr. Niraj
Thanks !!!

Thank you Mr. Niraj for the reply - But the problem is that Autonomous Units are under some or the other Central Govt. Bodies only, how can these be left out. Several anomolies lie in pay structure in these autonomous units. Please inform whom should we contact to raise the issue of these units ? 1 more important point - It is not possible for us to go to National Museum Delhi just to get the status of GILA. I wanted to know the details of this association , how can professionals be a part of it, what are the eligibilties etc. Please inform us the appropriate authority for communication in this regard. Thanks & Regards, Pragya

All autonomous bodies and state government follows the Central Govt. so if the initial grade pay of LIA goes to 4600 then Autonomous bodies can fight to his Office / Ministries / Departments on the basis of that Anomaly Committee's Order.
And I can give you details about GILA after the meeting, becoz it is going to reconstitute in this meeting. For more details you may mail to narendrabar@gmail.com.

Dear Dr. Niraj Kumar,
Could you pls tell me what shall be the Grade pay for ALIO after 4600/- G.P is given to LIAs.

If Grade pay goes to 4600 of LIAs then it will increase 4800 of ALIOs and then we will fight to 5400 after five years of ALIO.

Library Information Assistants and Sr. Library Information Assistants both are presently placed in Rs. 4200/- Grade Pay with Pay Band-II. If both are same posts? According to NAC recommendations, if 4600/- G.P.is recommended to LIA the same G.P. shall be given to SLIA or higher GP?

What is your entry designation LIA or SLIA ?

My entry designation SLIA.

If your entry designation is SLIA-4200 then you will get 4600 after Anomaly clearance and when you will get ACP/Promotion then you will get 4800.
