In the prcccding chaptcrs
we
have dealt
with
the qucstim
of
dctcrmination
of
the
two
cardinal points viz.,
the
minimum pay
of
tlic lowestliinctioiii-q
in
Govt.
and
thc
highcsi
pay
of
the
Secret&
LO
Govt.
of
India.
Aftcr
considcrable discussion
we
arrived
at the-figure
of
RS.2440
s
the minimum
basic
pay
and
Rs.
26000
as
thc
salary
61
thc Secrctary. Thus we have retained thetninimum-maximum ratio
of
1
:
10.7
which had
been
fixed
by the Fourth
CPC
it
is
our
feeling that
if
this ratio cannot be increased,
it
should not be allowed
to
get reduced either. That is Ihe
reason
why we have advocated
a
100%,
neutralisation
of
cost
of
living at lhe higher levels.

the new basic pay and the unrevised basic pay. Normally, the application
of
uch
a
broad arithmetical ratio could have yielded all the
scales
that we wanted, but wewere compelled
to
makc a nurnber of other changes which involved either themerger
of
scales
or
rahonalisation of the pre-revised scalcs
or
a
change in the span
ofthc
rcviscd
scalcs, Thcre were other considcrations
too:
which wc havc tried
to
explain
in
the succecding paragraphs.43.5
We have merged
a
number
of
scales, because
the
existingscates were
too
close
to each
other, or because we
decided
to
do
away with
some
scales altogether.
The logic of the mcrgcr
in
caeh casc
is
explained below

These

scelcs arcidentical but
for
a
diffcrcnccin span.

was
a
scale for skilled

catcgon
of
artisans, while
Rs.
1320-2040
was thc scaleforskilled

We decided
to
merge these categories,
so
that the
artisans
could progress directly
fio
m
Rs.
950-1500
to
Rs.
320-2040on
the
analogy of

being
promoted
as
UDCs.
This merger hasthus taken- away
one
of the chief grievances
of
artisans
who always felt discriminated
vIs
a vistheir ministerial counterparts.These
two
scalcs wcrc
too
closc
to
each other.These are identical scalcs
but
