employees who, unli e employees in the private sector, have no specific right to organize as a collective bargaining unit and

negotiate for better terms and cond itionsof employment, nor the power to hold a stri e to protest unfair labor prac tices. Notonly are they impotent as a labor unit, but their efficacy to lobby in Congress isalmost nil as RA 7653 effectively isolated them from the other GFI r an -and-file incompensation. These BSP ran -and-file employees represent the pol iticallypowerless and they should not be compelled to see a political solution to their unequal and iniquitous treatment. Indeed, they have waited for many yea rs for thelegislature to act. They cannot be as ed to wait some more for discrim ination cannotbe given any waiting time. Unless the equal protection clause of t he Constitution is amere platitude, it is the Courts duty to save them from reason less discrimination.Thus, the continued operation and implementation of the last proviso of Section15(c), Article II of Republic Act 7653 was declared unconstit utional.
