Joke: He Just Wants to Drive the Car...

One day, a teenage boy was absolutely over the moon that he had just passed his driving test. Then, just as his father was expecting, the boy approached his dad asking when they'd be able to have a discussion about him using the family car.

AIRIEF CHARTER OF DEMANDS, go through, offer suggestions

Dear friends,

1)Some queries were coming what happened to Charter of Demands of AIRIEF.Some may not be aware of the wonderful BOOKLET prepared painstakingly by AIRIEF.I attach at the end ,the 24 page Booklet COD.

Pensioners can go though the Booklet,add whatever useful suggestions they have ,so that a Supplement can be got ready.It is always necessary, a growing organization like AIRIEF must willingly accept ideas,pool them under different Headings,   update   periodically.No significant qualitative  improvement  we like as suitable men to man such posts,take interest professionally,able to air latest info authoritatively are not in good numbers.This is a serious handicap & obstacle for conducive, assertive talks with Top Management.We must learn from experience, must know how organized, with massive macro, micro data InService Employees Unions present & yet we are mute spectators & all appeals vanish in thin air.  Friends, please, this is not to be, change is needed, in thinking, in drafting such talents, in a plan of action & then meet Management Qly to give a push & momentum.Mgt will be cautious, on the toes then, & endeavor to alert CO staff & personnel to be ready with solutions.


2)I was waiting & waiting  when Sri Angurajan had requested Amended MEMORANDUM to Chairman on 5th Dec 2016 to be submitted to ZMs/SDMs
No indications someone is attending, we cant make a mess of an important situation,it needs adequate time to inform & instruct RIEAs all over India with Enclosure. So I started, pooled old, devpts since then from Dec 2015 --Dec 2016, changed, updated, gave finishing touches,sent to GS, AIOS &m any RIEAs .Many said it has come off well..Submission was duly done.

Then it is time when Top Mgt sits with New India Top Mgt to consider & finalise premium, benefits, for 2017-18 Group Master Policy.Even though I am handicapped as I am in Las Vegas, USA with only yahoo & gmail emails, much more from Archives is needed to be pucca.I am also not physically fit as still Cellulitis of leg & varicose vein afflicts & troubles me.But how can we keep quiet ,we have thinking power, we know some improvements are required, we shd present it properly & cogently  So, I had to spend a lot of time, even days to be ready & then groom to near perfection that letter to EDPer,LIC CO

SZ does many good & novel things to close the deficiency or lacuna in pensioners welfare,they wake up when we bring to their notice & attention.After the ball is set in motion, AIRIEF AIOSs both ,OBs/EC AIRIEF & RIEA President/Secretary must avail this golden opportunity & cultivate Public Relations with SDM & Mgr OS & FUP to ensure Nomination is done ,all Columns completed, Alternate Nominee also provided & the other Purification & updation of Mobile Nos & Email Ids.EVEN FAMILY PENSIONERS must complete Form of Nomination. 

3)Here is AIRIEF COD from airiefvision.wordpress.com .Read in full.offer new ideas.





Greetings for a MERRY CHRISTMAS & A HAPPY & HEALTHY, PEACEFUL & PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR

MC Jain Case - Am I eligible to be included?



Dear Mr Mahadevan,
I have been pestering you by asking you frequently whether pensioners like me who were Class I Officers between 1/8/1992 and 31/3/1993 are eligible to be considered beneficiaries under the M.C.Jain case judgment.
Your trailing mail makes the position quite clear and convinces me that the game is not worth the candle.
Regards.
P. Ramanathan.

subject:Re: MC Jain Case - Am I eligible to be included?

The M C Jain case judgment can benefit only those Class I Officers who retired between 1/8/1992 and 31/3/1993.
But by extended implication, Class I Officers who retired after 1/4/1993 can legally claim that they should also be paid the benefits of wage revision effective from 1/8/1992 to avoid discrimination vis-s-vis MC Jain category of retired officers.But this category of officers will have to file a separate Writ Petition in High Court/s against LIC for payment of the difference in salary from 1/8/1992 to 31/3/1993.This category even includes in-service officers including the present Chairman of LIC. The benefits at the maximum may be about Rs 5688 for AAO and Rs 24400 for ED at the maximum of scale.
Kind regards.
C H Mahadevan

Your perspicacity

Dear Mr Kishore, 

     Selected portions from your mails :

"8)We have been including in AIRIEF Charter of Demands, that in view of rising number of employees/pensioners having to go to Foreign Countries,Our mediclaim Master Policy itself must contain additional provision of OVERSEAS INSURANCE, .so that by paying small extra premium for this, to obviate the need for approaching GICos & completing all the paraphernalia to secure Travel Health Insce.We shall be extremely indebted to you for this kind provision to be incorporated by New India before it is finally inked."

     This is a real need considering the ever-increasing number of parents visiting their children in foreign countries, especially in the USA, and that most insurers do not want to touch those who are 70+ even with a barge pole when it comes to Travel Insurance. And those few who do offer the facility for these unfortunates charge the earth as premium😖 

"I was not well ,not too good even now after 3/4 months of Cellulitis of leg & acute Varicose vein"
     
     It is not like you to complain like this, as far as I know. I tend to think that the mild tone of the complaint masks the real distress that you feel. I am perturbed, Mr Kishore, to note that this affliction of yours is substantially reducing the quality of your time and is preventing you from enjoying your sojourn to the fullest.

"RBI Makes One More U-Turn…
The count of such flip-flops has already surpassed 100 Between November 8, 2016 and December 21, 2016."

"Every Situation!
An elephant took a bath in a river and was walking on the road."

     An elephant needs to have a ' dust-bath ' even after bathing in the cleanest waters of forest streams. This is to keep away those insects that harass it incessantly.

Income Tax Department Identifies 67.54 lakh Potential Non-Filers for F.Y. 2014-15

Press Information Bureau

Income Tax Department Identifies 67.54 lakh Potential Non-Filers for F.Y. 2014-15
The Non-filers Monitoring System (NMS) was rolled out for identification of non-filers with potential tax liabilities. Data analytics carried out by the Systems Directorate of Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) identifies non-filers about whom specific information is available in the AIR, CIB and TDS/TCS databases.
The Income Tax Department has conducted the fifth cycle of data matching which has identified an additional 67.54 lakh potential non-filers who have carried out high value transactions in the financial year 2014-15 but did not file return of income for the relevant assessment year i.e. A.Y 2015-16. The information relating to the identified non-filers has been made available in the ‘Compliance Module’ on the e-filing portal of the Income Tax Department. The information will be visible only to the specific PAN holder when they log into the e-filing portal at https://incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in. The PAN holder will be able to respond electronically and retain a copy of the submitted response for record purpose.
While the Government urges all tax payers to disclose their true income and pay taxes accordingly, the Department would continue to pursue the non-filers vigorously till all the high potential non-filers are covered.

PM walks the talk on 2017 calendar

December 22, 2016 13:31 IST
The Narendra Modi government on Thusday released the 2017 government calendar. The calendar comes with a theme for every month and has Prime Minister Narendra Modi featured from start to end.
PM Modi is not the first leader to feature in a calendar. Russian President Vladimir Putin beat him to it last month and that calendar we hear has flown off the shelves. Taking a cue from Putin, Rediff.com imagined what a calendar featuring our Pradhan Sevak would look like. Remember this?

Outcome of the meeting of Staff Welfare Fund - Union Bank of India


Friends,

Outcome of the meeting of Staff Welfare Fund

Following is the message from Com.N.Shankar, General Secretary, All India Union Bank Employees' Association. 
------------------------------ ------------------------------ ------------------------------ ------------------------------ ------------------------------ --------------
Pension , Gratuity  trust meetings, staff welfare committee meeting and DRF meeting held  at Mumbai  decided as  under
1)The  Ex-Gratia payable is increased from Rs 3.50 lacs to Rs 4.25 lacs.
2)The staff welfare measures are improved as below,:
3)Reimbursement of school fees is increased from Rs 1850  to 2250.
4)Reimbursement of college fees increased from present Rs 3000 to Rs 3250.
5) Honorarium to students seeking first rank is increased from Rs 2500 to 3000.
6)Scholarship for 10+2 higher studies from Rs 250 to 375 per month and for college studies from Rs 400 to 500 per month and Rs 600 to 700 per month in case of ward staying in hostel.
7) Health check up scheme is improved to include employees above age of 35 years from present 40/ 45 years  with increased cost of 500 per year on all categories.
8)Additional holiday homes in new 6 centers are decided with cost of contribution from employees towards  room rent increased by Rs 50.
9) For retirees the UBIREMAS coverage is increased from Rs 1.25,lac to Rs 1.50 lac. Our detail  circular follows. 
N. Shankar 
GS AIUBEA.
------------------------------ ------------------------------ ------------------------------ ------------------------------ ------------------------------ ------------------------------ ---------
So far as retirees are concerned, the life time limit of 'Union Bank of India Retired Employees' Medical Assistance Scheme' (UBIREMAS) is increased from Rs.1,25,000/- to Rs.1,50,000/-.

Reactions of the retired employees are -
  1. No authenticated figures of the welfare fund utilization under UBIREMAS are made available to us for last two years. However, we are quite sure that after introduction of the Medical Insurance Scheme for last more than a year, most of the claims are placed by the retirees to the Insurance Company and hence payments from UBIREMAS must be very less.
  2. Therefore, instead of increasing limit of UBIREMAS, it would have been better if the Welfare Committee would have decided to grant subsidy in our medical insurance premium, as it is being done by Bank of Baroda and several other Banks for last two years. Atleast the premium of widows, retired sub staff, pre-'86 retirees is unbearable for them and hence many of them have discontinued from the medical insurance coverage. Therefore, it was necessary to reimburse premium of these categories of retirees from the Welfare Fund. 
Yours sincerely,
B.G.Raithatha,
General Secretary
