Dear Comrades,
Re: SLP in the matter of 100 per cent DA case in Supreme Court .
Re:JUDGEMENT
We have been receiving several enquiries/ quarries about the reserved judgment on SLP in the matter of 100 per cent DA case pending in the Supreme Court. In this regard we may once again advise the membership that on conclusion of the arguments on 1st August, 2017 judgment is reserved and is expected to be delivered soon. But no time limit can be predicted in the matter.
2. We also find that various messages/ communications are being circulated in social media on this issue. We have no specific comments to offer on them. But for the sake of good order and to put the record straight, we may mention that it is the legal case originally initiated by United Bank of India Retied Employees Welfare Association, Kolkata, one of the oldest affiliates of AIBRF. Then it was effectively handled by its leadership in the single bench as well as double bench with success in favour of retirees. Entire credit goes to the leadership of UBIREWA for bringing the case to the present level which has created new hope among the retiree community after set back in Madras High Court case. Leadership of UBIREWA deserves all the praise for their successful efforts.
3. Once the case has reached to the Supreme Court due to filing of SLP by the management of United Bank of India, AIBRF took the charge of the case by filing intervention application to protect interest of large number of affected pensioners and did required value addition by identifying and engaging very competent senior counsel, Shri V.K.Bali whose effective arguments on 1st August, 2017 in the Supreme Court have been acknowledged by one and all, preparing very effective strategy based on facts of the case in 6 long sessions held in the office of the counsel and filing more than 150 pages additional documents in support of the case and which were admitted by the court and taken on record.
4. On this occasion, we want to make appeal and convey the message on behalf of AIBRF that in case the judgement comes in favour of retirees, it will not be victory of any particular section of the retirees or AIBRF alone it will be victory for the entire retiree community and for all the retirees' organisations. AIBRF will have the satisfaction that it has done its duty which it owes to the retirees' community. We should be ready to share success with all in true sprit
5. We also wish to make appeal to the membership in particular to those who are active in social media to refrain from passing any comment/ remarks which may heart sentiments/ emotions of any individual in particular union leaders. AIBRF's consistent policy has been that we have been and shall remain grateful to the Unions who with long struggle could bring time tested reliable pension scheme in the banking industry. Our struggle is to bring required improvements as per need of the time and remove fault lines in effective implementation of the provisions of the settlement related to pension either through action programmes or legal recourse wherever warranted.
6. We shall communicate the decision when pronounced. We request you to take the judgement which may come in any format, in proper stride with due respect and dignity towards judiciary and all other individuals/ organisations.
With Warm Regards,
Yours Sincerely ( S.C.JAIN)
