Dear Comrades,

My heartfelt New Year Greetings to you all. 

Future Pension Revision with CPC Fitment Benefit.

Generally, the top officers are not averse to the proposal. It is pointed out that the PRC shall not propose any pension revision for the central PSUs or exclusively for BSNL. 
DDG raised the doubt whether an anomaly may not arise where the officials retire after 01-01-2017 may be at a disadvantageous position compared to those who retired before that date and got the benefit of CPC report.
We told that it would not happen as serving staff may get a pay revision with effect from 01-01-2017. 
Director (Estt) assured that she would study the issue in depth and initiate suitable actions. 
Joint secretary also assured that he would examine the matter thoroughly.
I hope that the matter will get due attention of the DOT. We demanded DOT endorsement of DOP&PW OM on increased Gratuity, Minimum Pension etc. As the file is pending with Finance now, officers assured that it would be expedited.

Extra Increment Case

We pointed out that the five pensioners who approached the CAT Ernakulam and got favourable judgement are granted the benefit. Similarly placed pensioners of other circles should also be given the benefit as the AIBSNLPWA is the first applicant in the case. Member (S) assured the due action.

Full pension on 10 Years of Qualifying Service.

It is said that a detailed note is being sent again to DOP & PW seeking a clarification on the matter.
But ,later the officer in DOP & PW told us that it is for DOT to decide the case as DOT only issued order for the pension revision and DOT & PW is not issuing orders regarding IDA pensioners.

In all above cases, we hope the best! 

Let us meet again  with more success events!!
