Finalisation of Transfer Policy for JWMs
It was decided in the meeting to finalise the new transfer policy with consultation of Association views within March.

10
Implementation of 7th CPC for JWM -  the strength of MCM was not included in the proposal of 7th CPC for earmarking the number of post in GP4800 – Level 8
In this Regard Decission may kindly be taken in MOD level for Considering all the 4200 GP post for calculating 4800 GP Post for Functional requirement of Ordnance Factories. If 4200 GP post (MCM) is not included then there will be only 1600 Post in Technical cadre for whole Ordnance Factories which will not solve the functional requirement. MCM post is in the GP-4200 whose promotion is to Chargeman after that JWM. Therefore MCM should be included for creating New post in 4800 GP for proper promotional Hierarchy and functional requirement of Ordnance Factories.
