Respected leaders,
None can forget the all round support given by Sri. R.K.Sahni. He kept all our members informed of the day-today-developments of our court cases, observations of the leaders of all the pensioner-organisations, without any bias, through his Pensioners Voice Blog. He has been a bridge to get the needed details exchanged between leaders.
I cannot but recall my acquaintance with our Ex-Secretary, AIRIEF, (Late) V.C. Jain ,I still remember his thrilling and motivating circulars. I am thankful to our EX President Sri. S.K.Shukla.Both have maintained fund flow to our case at Jaipur .My great wish is that this team spirit should exist to get all our future demands settled amicably.
Salute to all
of you who have fought for our twin demands of 100% DR neutralization
and upward revision of pension almost for the past two decades. Each
leader is unquestionably eligible to claim ' Fathership ' of the trying
episode. Each one has contributed his mite in his own way for bringing
the said issues to this much appreciable stage. There is not even an
iota of doubt in securing favourable judgement within a couple of weeks.
We bow before
our Champion Warrior Sri. K.M.L.Asthana who is instrumental for this
legal fight.His unfettered efforts have been the cause for ever-so-many
successes in the High Courts and the Apex Court. We equally thank
leaders like ( Late ) M.L.Gandhi and Sri. S.N.Chhabra for their tireless
efforts in extending their deep support & cooperation to
Sri.Asthana in shaping the battle. Sri. G.N.Sridharan, GS of Federation
of Retd Class-I Officers, handled 100% DR neutralization initially and
then both the demands a bit later. Naturally his entry has provided some
additional strength in our war-path.
In the height of
the above, the all-out prestigious, support rendered by our tall leader
Sri. R.B.Kishore, Vice-President of AIRIEF, all these years, right from
wee hours in the morning till late night burning mid-night oil lamps,
through voluminous e-mail messages with full of vital documentary
evidences. There is none equal to him.
The valuable services put up by M/S M.P.Agnihotri, Pramod Bhatnagarji
deserve our hearty congratulations. But for this their affidavits and other supporting petitions could not have reached to this adornment stage.It is note worthy to record that they maintained fine rapport with our Sr.Counsel Sri.Nidesh Gupta

AIRIEF is
immensely pleased to place on record our fullest satisfaction over the
brilliant way our cases are handled at Supreme Court and Delhi High
Court by our Sr. Counsels Sri. R.K.Singh and Sri. Nidesh Gupta to the
envy of our opponents. While we appreciate the tireless efforts of Sri.
R.K.Singh without any let up from the beginning till recently, we admire
to see the veteran Sr.Counsel Sri.Nidesh Gupta arguing fluently under
the influence of an admirable atmosphere which the court enjoyed the
law-filled air. The legal points put forth are apt, specific and to the
point. His lucid language carried the required message which must have
baffled the opposing groups. Once again I wish to thank them on your
behalf for being the main cause for the impending success.
Naturally, to
conduct the business of the organisation ' AIRIEF ' and the court cases,
there needs a competent ' Ring Master '. AIRIEF is fortunate to have
such an able personality in the form of Sri. S.S.Saxena. Through his
masterly and timely guidance, he kept both the organisation and the
legal battle in alert and trimmed position.
We can not
forget the valuable assistance extended voluntarily by Sri.
C.H.Mahadevan, being an eminent statistician,in totally dismissing the
bogus figures of LIC management with his actual ones. What a fine and
hard working gentleman he is for the welfare of the fellow-pensioners.
We have to mention about a silent worker in our midst. He is ever
vigilant on statistical figures. He is none other than our senior member
Sri. T.R.Madhava Rao.
He has minimized his active participation due to age; but still continues his contacts with Sri. RBK over phone. His earlier association with his neighbour (late) C.R.Sankaran is well remembered even today. Both used to discuss about our court cases.
T.R.Madhava RAO used to exchange views with both Sri. Asthana and Sri. CHM till recently. He is a fire-brand indeed.
To get the court apprised of the vast discrimination of pension paid to the pensioners based on the dates of their retirement sufficient charts were prepared by M /S CHM and R.K.Sahni, periodically as desired by Sri. R.B.Kishore. These charts helped the court to assess the pathetic situations in which the senior and super-senior pensioners are pushed into.

My last prayer to the case managers :-
1. Our written
statements to be submitted to DHC in the days to come should be a vivid
and clear-cut one. There should not be any ambiguity.
2. Updation of
pension should be applied from the date of retirement or from the date
of commencement of the Pension Scheme, whichever is later;
Fitment at stage to stage as is being applied to existing employees on wage revision
3. 100% DR neutralisation to pre-August 1997 pensioners only on the basis of revised pension.
4. Application of cut-off date should totally be scrapped.
5. The order should apply to all cadres of pensioners
6. Arrears should be paid within a stipulated time frame
7. Interest for belated payment @ govt permissible ratio
etc, etc.
With affection and gratitude to one and all,
