SIR,
REG: CHANDIGARH CONTEMPT PETITION 2975/2013
I HAVE READ THE INTERIM JUDGEMENT ORDER OF COCP 2975/2013.
THE JUDGE HAS NOT GONE TO THE MAIN CONTENTION OF THE CASE,
ADJOURNED TO SINE A DIE AFTER THE COMPLETION OF THE FINAL ORDER
OF THE CASE PENDING IN SUPREME COURT CASE.
THE CHANDIGARH
PETITIONERS MENTIONED THAT WHEN 4.7 CRORES BEING PAID TO THE PETITIONERS ONLY 33,67,838 WAS PAID IN THE REGISTRY BUT AFTER
CALCULATING INTEREST 1,29,278/- BEING PAID BY L I C. THE JUDGE ADVISED L I C TO DEPOSIT RS. 1,29, 278/- ALSO WITH THE REGISTRY WITH IN A
WEEK.
SO, THE PETITIONERS COULD NOT GAIN ANYTHING MORE THAN THAT OF
JAIPUR OR DELHI.
THE L I C HAS TAKEN IN TO ACCOUNT ONLY THE PETITIONERS, THEIR
DA/DR,
IGNORED UP GRADATION OF PENSION WITH EVERY WAGE RAISE.
WHAT IS REQUIRED AT THE PRESENT STAGE UNITY OF MIND, UNITY OF
DEMAND, UNITY OF THOUGHT AND ACTION. THE STRUGGLE PERCEPTIVE
IS LEFT, IS THE LEGAL FIGHT AND LEGAL FIGHT IS THE ONLY WAY OUT TO
ALL THE PENSIONERS OPEN TO US. SHRI K M L ASTHANA IS ONLY TAKEN
UP THE STRUGGLE IN THE YEAR 1998 AND PERSUING IT.
BESIDES THE ABOVE. ONE SHRI RAM KHANNA DIRECTOR THE BOARD OF L I C
SUPPORTED THE DEMAND OF AIRIEF, THE END RESULT IS THE RESOLUTION
DATED 24 11 2001. IT IS AN UNANIMOUS RESOLUTION WHERE IN TWO JOINT
SECRETARIES FROM THE FINANCE MINISTRY WERE PRESENT. THE BOARD
RESOLUTION IS ENDORSED BY THE TWO JOINT SECRETARIES OF THE FINANCE
MINISTRY WHO WERE PRESENT.
THE CHAIRMAN OF L I C CAN IMPLEMENT THE SO CALLED RESOLUTION WITH
THE POWERS VESTED UNDER CLAUSE 55 AND 56 WITH ALL ITS SUB CLAUSES. DESPITE HIS
POWERS HE REFERRED TO THE FINANCE MINISTRY. AGAIN HE ADDRESSED A SECRET LETTER TO JOINT SECRETARY FINANCE TO SEND THEIR APPROVAL
AT THE EARLIEST.
THE WISER COUNSELS OF L I C COULD NOT ADVISE HIM PROPERLY.
THE ADVOCATE ON BEHALF OF THE GOVERNMENT APPEARED BEFORE THE
JAIPUR HIGH COURT AND SAYS THAT L I C IS FREE TO IMPLEMENT ITS OWN
RESOLUTION. EVEN THEN THE THEN CHAIRMAN PREFERRED THE GOVERNMENT
APPROVAL.
SJ JUSTICE M N BHANDARI HAS GIVEN A JUDGEMENT ON 12 01 2010 THAT
THE TWO WRITS WERE ALLOWED AND THE BENEFITS ARISING OUT OF THE
TWO WRITS SHOULD BE MADE APPLICABLE TO ALL TE PENSIONERS. THE
DIVISION BENCH OF JAIPUR ENDORSED SJ JUSTICE BHANDARI JUDGEMENT.
THE CHANDIGARH DIVISION BENCH ALSO ENDORSED SHRI JUSTICE M N
BHANDARI JUDGEMENT WITH AN ADDITIONAL POINT OF PAYMENT OF INTEREST @ 12% PER
CENT. THE DELHI HIGH COURT ENDORSED SHRI JUSTICE M N BHANDARI WITH AN ADDITIONAL POINT TO BE
IMPLEMENTED IN “REM”.
BUT, THE L I C COULD NOT HONOUR THE 3 HIGH COURT JUDGMENTS.
THE MATTER HAS GONE TO SUPREME COURT OF INDIA, THEY DISMISSED
ALL THE S L Ps OF L I C, FINALLY THEY CONVERTED IN TO CIVIL
APPEALS.
BUT THE SUPREME COURT HAS NOT GRANTED ANY STAY FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION
OF THE HIGH COURT JUDGMENTS.
JUSTICE DEEPAK MISRA ADVISED L I C TO PAY 20% OF THE AMOUNT DUE
TO THE PETITIONER – EMPLOYEES BUT IT WAS NOT IMPLEMENTED IN TOTO.
THEREBY THE INTERIM ORDER OF 07 05 2015 OF JUSTICE MISRA WAS ALSO
IGNORED.
THE L I C IS COMMITTING MISTAKE AFTER MISTAKE AND IT APPEARS THAT
L I C IS MORE INTERESTED IN PROLONGING LITIGATION AT THE COST OF
THE PENSIONERS, WHO LAID DOWN THEIR LIVES AS EMPLOYEES FOR BUILDING L I C ALL THESE YEARS.
WHEN OUR L I C IS SO MUCH DETERMINED TO WAGE A PROLONGED
PROTRACTED STRUGGLE AGAINST ITS OWN EMPLOYEES WHY CANNOT
WE JOIN TOGETHER FORGETTING OUR AFFILIATION FOR THE SAKE OF
OURSELVES AND OURSELVES ONLY. OTHERWISE THE HISTORY WILL NOT
FORGIVE US.
SHRI K M L AASTHANA, A CHAMPION OF THE PENSIONERS IS WAGING WAR
AGAINST L I C FOR THE SAKE OF PENSIONERS FOR THE PAST 18 YEARS
CANNOT WE OBLIGE HIM WITH ONE VOICE? MY APPEAL IS TO ONE AND
ALL.
WE ARE DOING IT AND I AM REQUESTING TO DO IT NOT FOR ANY BODY
SAKE FOR OUR SAKE AND FOR OUR SAKE ONLY UNDER THE LEADERSHIP
OF SHRI K M L AASTHANA, SHRI S S SAXENA AND SHRI RB KISHORE.
I AM SURE MANY OF THE PENSIONERS ARE ELDER TO ME EITHER BY AGE
OR BY CADRE, LET US AT LEAST FOR THE SAKE OF GOD, UNITEDLY OPPOSE
EVERY MOVE OF L I C ON 10 03 2016 WITH COMPLETE WISDOM ATTACK THE
L I C COUNSEL WITH ALL OUR ARGUMENTS AND COME OUT VICTORIOUSLY
IN FLYING COLOURS.
WITH MANY MORE WISHES AND GREETINGS,
L S Rao
