Dear All,
1)I am glad to inform u all, thanx to the hectic efforts of last 10 days with EDP,CO as well
as ZO OS authorities from RMOS, Sy OS to AO OS & others,the EXCESS
MEDICLAIM PREMIUM PAID FOR 2015-16 is being CREDITED/PAID
ALONGWITH PENSION DUE MAY 2015 to be credited on Monday 1st June 2015
2)Please
enrol 3or 4 new members for RIEA CHENNAI &inform me of their Full
particulars ,name, cadre, month/year of retirement, complete address,
mobile no,email id & any other useful data
3)U
must have recd yesterday a copy of my email as a fup of my talk with
EDP,LIC CO to regularise TPA, MAKE CLAIM FORMS SIMPLE, RETAIN EXISTING
ONES, ECARD oF TPA to be downloaded quickly after they confirm all info
keyed in etc, website & email id of TPA etc
4)Whatever
u can donate, please donate for Legal Fund, as good collections were
nearly exhausted due to few sittings in SC Bench where our Sr Counsel
had to be present & made submissions.U must also have seen the
stepmotherly treatment meted out to Bank pensioners, when not a single
demand of theirs was discussed or resolved & a shameful RECORD NOTE
was circulated by UFBU, fully detrimental to retirees interests.We
circulated the Point by Point Rejoinder by Sri Ramachandran ,BOB Retd
GM in a befitting manner & my observations too,LIC/UOI is looking at
pensioners with disdain.U also might have viewed in all English News
Channels 7 others too the feverisg, frenetic ,angry utterances of many
participants on OROP which still, tho stated to have reached finals,Army
officals decided to biycott all functions till amount is credited to
their bank account
Such
is the anger everywhere.We cant take things lying down.It is possible
LIC again at the behest of UOI/MOF may pay 20% of dues to Jaipur
Petitioners before 18 june 2015 confining to ONLY DR.So that will
invite Contempt as 7th May 2015 SC Bench order says 20% of impugned
Court Order--meaning the Jaipur DB judgement,which of course, as u all
know admitted BOTH writs on FULL DR & Pension upgradation as was
clearly delineated by Hon SJ Bhandari Jaipur HC
So,
again a critical situation has arisen, as LIC is driven to a corner,
trying to extricate from SC clutches but awaiting Final DDay ON 23 sep
2015.Mark the words of SC Bench Hon Judges 7th May, as it involves issue
of ENHANCEMENT OF PENSION, POST the Case No 1--5 as PRIORITY.It is
tragic that even the APEX Court wants to drag on & even allowing UOI
backdoor entry after 5 years !!We described vividly & delineated
exhaustively from ALL ANGLES,legal, constitutional, past many case laws,
recent valid judgements, financial, Fundamental Rights violation, 15000
Pensioners have died, FP rose to 38 % of RP,LIC Board Resn dt 24Nov
2001 is a Springboard for further extension to subsequent Wage periods
as Hon Bhandari pointed out monstrous anamolies of 8 cadres below
getting more pension,recent Court cases, emphatically lays down Same
Cadre, Same LENGTH OF SERVICE to RECEIVE SAME PENSION & signal
dedicated contribution by pensioners to make LIC lustrous,LIC financial
solvency & stability unquestionable,Mere 2.9 % is spent for Pension
Bill out of Total Mgt Expenses & Employee welfare, what more needed,
Govt FP is more than LIC RP, Wa,yet we have to wait & wait. Let us
display full unity,mad rush to conclude 7th May verdict as DR only a
retrograde utterance, have more endurance & equanimity ,knowing
judicial wheels move so slow & rickety & dictatorial single
track mind of MOF/UOI we have to thwart only thro SC & SC alone
