SHILLONG, Aug 3: The Coordination Committee of Registered MeECL (Employees’) Associations and Unions (CCORMAU) will hold a general meeting on Monday at 1 PM at the tennis court, Lum Jingshai, to deliberate on several long-pending issues concerning employees.
The meeting is being convened in line with the resolution adopted during the previous meeting held on June 20.
In a letter addressed to the Chairman-cum-Managing Director (CMD) of MeECL, Sanjay Goyal, CCORMAU General Secretary Aibanjop Mylliemngap stated that several unresolved matters requiring urgent intervention from the management will be taken up during the meeting. He mentioned that these issues follow up on discussions held during a meeting chaired by the CMD on March 12.
“During that meeting, the committee also raised additional matters related to the welfare of MeECL employees. We earnestly seek your immediate intervention to resolve the issues recorded in the minutes of the CCORMAU meeting held on June 26, 2025,” Mylliemngap wrote in the letter.
One of the key topics expected to be discussed is the pending policy on contractual employees and the implementation of the 2025 Pay Revision.
During the June 20 meeting, it was resolved to seek an update from the management regarding the status of the pay revision. Three months have passed since the management last assured action during the March 12 meeting with the MeECL CMC at the Conference Hall, Lum Jingshai.
Despite two meetings with the Chairman of the Pay Committee (Director Finance), CCORMAU noted that the committee has yet to submit the Report on the Revised Pay Structure (ROP 2025). The committee was initially given two months to complete the report, but six months have now passed.
The last general meeting also resolved to urge the management to issue a notification for the Pay Committee on ROP 2025 by July 31, 2025, to avoid further delays and complications.
The meeting will also address the issue of unpaid wages for Home Guards, who are reportedly not being paid in accordance with the government’s notification for skilled labour. The association will once again appeal to the management to implement the revised wage rates, also requesting an enhancement on humanitarian grounds.
Another major issue on the agenda is the billing system developed by Idea Infinity. Members have reported multiple flaws in the system, which have made billing and payment management difficult for officers and staff. It has been proposed that the billing system be handed over to MeECL’s in-house IT Cell within six months, with full support from the management.
Additionally, the association will deliberate on concerns related to certain franchisees who have defaulted on payments amounting to Rs 15 crore. CCORMAU stated that such defaults defeat the very purpose of the Input-Based Distribution Franchisee model.
