: The Travails of Elderly Litigants – An Appeal for Timely Justice

                                                                                                                                                       Chennai

From 

C H Mahadevan,

Flat No D 108, Fantastic by Urban Tree Aptts,

Pallikuppam Road, Rajiv Nagar,

Vanagaram,

Chennai 600077


To
The Hon’ble Chief Justice of India
Supreme Court of India
New Delhi

Respected Lordship,

Re: The Travails of Elderly Litigants – An Appeal for Timely Justice

I write this letter in my individual capacity as an 84-year-old retired Executive Director of the Life Insurance Corporation of India, and as a pensioner who has been witnessing, and personally experiencing, the consequences of prolonged litigation.

I am conscious of the enormous constitutional responsibilities borne by the Hon’ble Supreme Court and of the difficulties involved in administering justice in a country with an enormous volume of litigation. I also fully recognise that adjournments may sometimes be unavoidable and that every case must receive the consideration that its complexity and constitutional importance demand.

My purpose in writing this letter is therefore not to question judicial discretion or to seek any intervention in the merits of a pending case. It is to place before Your Lordship, with utmost respect, the human cost that prolonged litigation can impose upon elderly litigants, particularly where an entire class of pensioners is awaiting a final determination.

My personal experience

My appeal to Honourable Chief Justice of India

I have sent a five page general letter of appeal to the Chief Justice of India.
The letter may look long but I believe it comprehensively echoes the travails faced by aged pensioners.
If there is a positive outcome emerging in response to this we will be lucky. Otherwise the Supreme Court  Registry will have a record of the sufferings faced by aged LIC pensioners on account of delay in disposals of cases.

Sub 155th Issue of EASTERN NEWS-SEPTEMBER 2026

 Sub:155th Issue of EASTERN NEWS-SEPTEMBER 2026


Respected Members/Readers, 

At the outset we wish all our members HAPPY LIC DAY on the 70th anniversary day of nationalization of LIC of India. It is our pride that LIC through its seven decades journey period has grown into a financial colossus synonymous with trust, security, and long-term financial planning.

In the Indian life insurance market, LIC maintains a dominant, market-leading position despite two decades of private-sector competition. It holds over 58–66% of the overall market share in total premiums and new business premiums, making it the undisputed leader in India's insurance sector. Beyond insurance protection, LIC serves as a key institutional investor in India's domestic economy, allocating substantial capital toward national infrastructure projects, government securities, and capital markets.

Globally, LIC stands among the top tier of life insurance providers. Ranked as the 4th largest life insurer globally by reserves according to S&P Global Market Intelligence and featuring prominently among the top 15 globally by assets under management, LIC outpaces many major multinational carriers. It is also consistently recognized by Brand Finance as one of the world's strongest insurance brands (presently 2nd strongest Insurance Brand Globally). Today, as a publicly listed entity with an expanding digital ecosystem and growing international presence across Asia, Africa, and Europe, LIC continues to balance its public welfare mandate with modern, competitive financial growth.  

On September 11, 1893, Swami Vivekananda delivered a historic address at the World’s Parliament of Religions in Chicago. To commemorate this historical event that reshaped global perceptions of Eastern spirituality and introduced Indian philosophy to the Western world, September 11 is observed as Universal Brotherhood Day  which  sends    a powerful reminder of harmony, tolerance, and human unity

His message was clear that is Tolerance and Universal Acceptance He emphasized that truth can be reached through many paths, illustrating this through the metaphor of streams originating in different places and merging into the same ocean.

In a present world fractured by conflict and disharmony, Swami Vivekananda's3 message of mutual respect and harmony remains profoundly relevant. The observance of September 11 celebrates the spirit of pluralism—reminding humanity that true spiritual progress lies in living together in peace and accepting diversity as a strength.

 In the aforesaid inspiring spirit, we are pleased to present herewith the 155th    Issue of   September 2026 Eastern News featuring insightful analytical articles on topics especially related to September. It is needless to mention that we highly value your thoughts on our topics and contents. Kindly share your valuable views with us at  licretiredofficers@gmail.com. Your feedback will be published in a subsequent issue.

We once again  extend our heartfelt greetings and best wishes to all readers and their family members on the  landmark occasion of the 70th anniversary of LIC Day.  

 With regards,

General Secretary

FAMILY PENSION UNDER LIC EMPLOYEES PENSION RULES 1995

 Eligibility for family pension under the Life Insurance Corporation of India (Employees) Pension Rules, 1995 is governed primarily by Rule 2(k) (Definition of Family) and Rule 40 (Period for which Family Pension is payable).

Eligibility is determined strictly in hierarchical order: the next category is considered only when no eligible member exists in the preceding category.

  • Age Limit: No age limit.
  • Duration & Conditions:
    • Payable up to the date of death or remarriage, whichever is earlier.
    • If the spouse is judicially separated, they remain eligible provided the separation was not granted on grounds of adultery and they were not held guilty of adultery.
    • If a childless widow remarries, family pension continues if her personal monthly income from all sources remains below the prescribed dependency threshold.

RTI information on Pension Pay-out to LIC Pensioners in FY 2024-25 & 2025-26

RTI information on Pension Pay-out to LIC Pensioners in FY 2024-25 & 2025-26

Please find attached  a reply to my First Appeal under RTI dated 4/9/2026 furnishing the figures of actual pension pay out to the LIC Pensiones in 2024-5 and 2025-26.
The figures are as follows:
                                            FY               Amount(Rs) 
                                        2024-25         3824,75,14,671
                                        2025-26         4997,53,66,629
It will be observed from the letter that the First Appellate Authority  has laboured hard to explain why the information was exempted under Section 8(1)(h) of the RTI Act 2005.He tries to  defend that the information of pay-out from the Pension Fund is available in the Annual Report skirting the fact that I specifically requested for the information of annuities paid to pensioners by P & GS  dept.Anyhow now the information has been provided after much delay. Otherwise, I was planning to file a second appeal to CIC.

OUR CASES ARE LISTED IN WEEKLY CAUSE LIST 08.09.2026 TO 10.09.2026 AT SERIAL NO 189 IN COURT NO. 8

An OPTIMIST INVENTED THE AEROPLANE

An OPTIMIST INVENTED THE AEROPLANE 
A PESSIMIST INVENTED THE PARACHUTE 
     FOOLISH. GOVT MUST ALLOW DEGREE OF AUTONOMY TO SUCH A FINE GIGANTIC ORGN 
SBI MUCH EARLIER SECURED Rs 250cr now it must have quadrupled  & more 
      Even tail end improvements such as SUPER SR CITIZENS , 80,85,90,95 & 100 @ 20 percent, 30, 40, 50& 100percent Rise in pension costs just Rs 100 crores. Many die unfortunately 
Infact PENSIONERS FRATERNITY MUST BE VIEWED with empathy .
The CMB Cash Medical Benefit to Employees, Class 3&4, Class 2 Dev Officers & Class 1 in 2 grades CMB indicated , SAME CMB must be allowed for all Pensioners in same manner. It worked out to app Rs 120/130cr which is nothing for LIC
