Let us keep ourselves calm and pray that better time will dawn for us.....GNS writes.

to vrkrishnan46, pggangadharan, me

We are now in the first week of May.I gratefully acknowledge the privilege all of you had given me to preside over and lead all our activities our ever since our Chennai Association and the Federation were brought into being exactly two decades back.That in turn prompts me to share with you all some of my thoughts at this moment when we are going through a tough time both personally and as pensioners.

All of you will remember that we in the chennai Association have been promptly holding our Annual gen.meetings in the first or second week of May every year without fail. Unfortunately this year we are compelled to postpone it due  to the extraordinary situation prevailing now following the outbreak of covid 19 virus.At the extended  executive committee meeting held on 10/3 we decided to hold it in the first half June but it will be appreciated that even that may not be possible.Kindly therefore bear with us and await our further notice in that behalf.

The corona menace and the consequent prolonged imposition of Lockdown have  had its impact both on our individual living style while pushing aside any hope of our getting redressal to any of our genuine problems through judiciary or otherwise. No doubt getting locked up at home 24/7 may create in some of us mental stress but there is no alternative but to be firm in overcoming it.

As for our problems this is hardly the time to be seriously concerned ,be it the delay in court proceedings or the fear of DA freeze etc.Let us keep ourselves calm and pray that better time will dawn for us at the earliest. Till then my best wishes to all
