A JOURNEY TOWARDS TRUTH, PEACE .

Dear shri sahni,  with ref to your mail seeking a specimen of our calculation sheet , I have since got the point raised thy you in regard to my own case checked by our calculation expert Shri. M Arunachalam.  He confirms that figures in my example should read : existing pension 22907. Increased 24057(not 23482 as mentioned in my earlier circular .) Net increase therefore is 1150. Thanks for your pointing out the error and with regards, GNSridharan

I am sending the e circular of date as attached. In addition, what is stated, the following also are to informed. 1)        Minimum pension prescribed in the Rules are updated based on the index to which the new salary scales are fixed.  There is relief as far as the minimum pension is concerned,  2)        Issues in Family Pension are not duly addressed 3)        While 100% DR is not conceded, we tried to work a few representative cases to get the quantum difference in pension, as a result of the order. The low quantum difference is of greater concern than the effective date.  The concept of fixing DR Rates are not duly appreciated or considered.  a)        Pre 1997 – Our Petitioner (Basic Rs. 4963)  - His current pension of Rs 22801 increases to Rs 24556 b)        Pre 1993 – Self (...

VIVEK MURTHY,  TILL YESTERDAY THE SURGEON GENERAL IN USA SACKED BY THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION  APPARENTLY BECAUSE HE HAPPENED TO BE AN OBAMA APPOINTEE WRITES IN HIS FACE BOOK   PLEASE READ AND READ FULLY.  Two years and four months ago, I was honored to be sworn in as the 19th Surgeon General of the United States. For the grandson of a poor farmer from India to be asked by the President to look out for the health of an entire nation was a humbling and uniquely American story. I will always be grateful to our country for welcoming my immigrant family nearly 40 years ago and giving me this opportunity to serve. During my tenure, I was blessed to have an extraordinary team of dedicated public servants who became my colleagues and friends. I was also fortunate to find thousands of dedicated partners in the community from schools and hospitals to faith groups and mayors. Together, we called our country to action to address the addiction crisis in America ...

As we are all aware certain issues faced by Bank pensioners are similar to what we have been fighting for. Their representative organisations ,multiple in number, are engaged in resorting to known forms of agitation besides taking matters to the judiciary.  Some groups of pensioners have also filed several writ petitions and patiently pursuing them without making any fuss.  Neither individuals nor leaders of their organisation indulge in bragging about their performance in courts which is something we pensioners in life insurance sector perhaps need to emulate. Be that, as it may, we feel it worthwhile to share information we have from our sources as follows on the status of various issues on which the bank pensioners are carrying on their struggle. A) General issues A Dharna under the banner of AIBRF was held at Jantar Mantar New Delhi on 23/3/2017 in which some 5000 retirees reportedly took part. The programme was inaugurated by a senior most retiree Mr TM ...

I have just seen the post of Shri Prem Dhamija on the above matter carried in your esteemed blog a couple of hours back. Shri Dhamija is one of the senior functionaries in my organisation .Though being a soft spoken gentleman we have always found him to be candid in expressing his views and yet ever willing to listen to others. His post could not have come at a more opportune time when pensioners are eager to know what the court decides rather than knowing who did what!!  I am therefore tempted to make some clarificatory 'observations '- I hasten to call them so and not as 'my Response'- on certain points arising out of his mail. 1)Out of the five members of the  'legal committee' of our federation at least three viz myself Sri R Rajagopalan & shri Vk jain are practising lawyers of more than two decades of standing.  According to my information -i promise to stand corrected if I am wrongly informed - our friend Mr. murthy was never a ...
