A webex meeting today (29th March, 2025)
Dear friends,
The Secretary, Department of Pension and Pensioners Welfare, GoI, New Delhi conducted a webex meeting today (29th March, 2025) from 10.30 am to 11.45 am with the Pensioners Associations across the country.
The meeting is to remove the Pensioners' apprehension on the applicability of 8th CPC in view of validation of Pension Rules passed in Lok Sabha.
I received an invitation from the DOPPW to participate in it and accordingly I represented our AGOPA in the above meeting.
Firstly, Staff side JCM members like Shiv Gopal Mishra, Gunman Singh spoke and expressed their apprehension about the Government move.
The Secretary told that in 6th CPC, there is a disparity and distinction between pre and post 2006 retirees. But, there is no such distinction in 7th CPC between pre and post 2016 retirees.
The Secretary clarified that this 7th CPC position of no disparity is the policy of the Govt and it will continue.
Then, all of us asked as to why the Finance Bill included the Validation of Pension Rules?
The Secretary told that this is not an amendment to the Pension Rules but it is a Validation of existing rules.
The Secretary categorically assured that there will be no disparity or distinction between pre and post retirees of 8th CPC also.
Then, the Associations wanted the department to issue a notification to the above extent.
The Secretary accepted to issue the notification of what he assured us in the meeting.

Cabinet approves release of an additional instalment of Dearness Allowance to Central Government employees and Dearness Relief to Pensioners w.e.f. 01.01.2025
The Union Cabinet chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi approved to release of an additional instalment of Dearness Allowance (DA) to Central Government employees and Dearness Relief (DR) to pensioners w.e.f. 01.01.2025 representing an increase of 2% over the existing rate of 53% of the Basic Pay/Pension, to compensate against price rise.
The combined impact on the exchequer on account of increase in both Dearness Allowance and Dearness Relief would be Rs. 6614.04 crore per annum. This will benefit about 48.66 lakh Central Government employees and 66.55 lakhs pensioners.
This increase is in accordance with the accepted formula, which is based on the recommendations of the 7th Central Pay Commission.

Pension Amendment: A Blatant Betrayal of Retirees’ Rights
Pension Amendment: A Blatant Betrayal of Retirees' Rights
All India BSNL Pensioners Association strongly condemns the government's proposed amendment to the Pension Rules, which seeks to override Supreme Court rulings and deny rightful benefits to pensioners. This amendment is not just a bureaucratic change—it is an outright assault on the dignity and financial security of millions of retirees who have served the nation with dedication.

Amendments introduced to CCS (PENSION) RULES 2021
Dear Editors, we may attempt to get more details after reading the contents of the letter. Although the matter pertains to Govt pensioners, it is likelier to have impact on the pension matter in general.

The amendments to the Central Civil Services (Pension) Rules*,
🚨 *The amendments to the Central Civil Services (Pension) Rules*, introduced by the government as part of the Finance Bill 2025, were passed in the Lok Sabha on Tuesday despite opposition protests. These amendments aim to revise pension rules, particularly in relation to the implementation of Pay Commission recommendations. Here are the key aspects of these amendments:
1. Pay Commission Benefits: *The amendments clarify that Pay Commission benefits will only apply prospectively, meaning they will be available to pensioners who retire after the implementation date of the Pay Commission's recommendations.* Pensioners who retired before this date will not receive these revised benefits.
'Judgement dated 20-3-2024 of DHC in WP 6002 of 2016'
'Judgement dated 20-3-2024 of DHC in WP 6002 of 2016'
This is a very important judgment. The SLP filed by the Central Government was dismissed by the Supreme Court.
Two important decisios to be noted are as follows:
1.The pension for pre-2006 pensioners should be revised corresponding to the revised scale after the Recommendations of the 6th CPC as held by the Tribunal. This means that revising the pension at the minimum of the revised scale does not provide parity.
2 That the effective date for such revision as per the OM issued should be from the date of filing the QA was not accepted by the SC and it was held that the revised pension was payable w e f 1/1/2006.
This gives pointers to the approach in respect of our case in SC requiring parity of pension without making distinction based on cut off dates of retirement.
The judgment also emphasizes the need for fixing the effective date of revision from the date scales were revised.
The judgment also draws upon the ratios of D S Nakara, SPS Veins and Manipur Pensioners case judgments which are relevant to our case.
We need to add this judgment also for support to our case in the next hearing.
