The minimum pension applicable from 1/8/2017 has been also been included both for retirees and family pensioners.
The minimum regular basic pension is revised to 4070.
The minimum family pension for the three slabs of basic pay ranges are 4070,4820 and 6370.
When I wanted to compare the pre-revised and revised minimum pension as at 31/8/2021,I found that the gross revised minimum pension as at 31/8/2021 is less than pre-revised gross minimum pension.
Thus the spirit of Delhi High Court in upgrading minimum pension has been eroded and instead of minimum pension getting upgraded,it has been in effect downgraded.
This seems to be safeguard the position of the Corporation in the Supreme Court against upgradation.
