A JOURNEY TOWARDS TRUTH, PEACE .

  Pensioners of the public sector financial institutions- which have remained so till now-resort to ,court fight out of necessity or compulsion to secure what they feel is their right. We,  LIC Pensioners rightly imagine ourselves as pioneers in this behalf albeit the fact remains that the only success in about a decade and a half we have had through court intervention is possibly the truncated benefit in the matter of 100% neutralisation on DR.

  Dear Friends, From last December,  we have been getting information more about our colleagues leaving us for their heavenly abode. Even before the ink in our pen dries out when we informed about the loss of Shri P.R.Chandramouli, yesterday,  yet another loss is reported by our secretary, the same day.  With a heavy heart, I am forced to inform you of the sad demise of Shri. A.Venkatesan, yesterday (13.2.2020) evening. He just completed 80 years in June 2020.  He retired as Asst. Secretary,  SZO in 2000.  Meesai Venkatesan as he was affectionately known, mostly clad in his white and white, sacrificed more than 30 years in his life for the welfare of the deaf-mutes.  He started an association for the deaf, named 'Madras Association of the deaf'  and also established a Training Centre for the adult deaf in Santhome, Chennai, both even now stand to propagate his ...
