Retrospection and
introspection are two essential elements for realizing and analyzing the
reasons for the करारी हार l
It is rather sad that the attempts are being made to project defeat as victory. Members don’t
get fooled so easily. पब्लिक है सबजानती है l
Retd Class I Officers Association must admit
that हम जीती बाज़ी हार गए basically because of their ego
and their effort to wear the crown and not Asthana. अब पहन लो क्राउन I
Let us now count the mistakes committed जिस कारन हम यहाँ लुटेलुटाय खड़े हैं I
1. Going was good. Astahna writ for
neutralization for DA anomaly was going strong and in it, on the saying of the
Honb’le High Court of Rajasthan, up gradation was added as additional plea.
Strangely enough Retd LIC Cl I Assoc. in the year 2007 filed another writ for
the removal of DA anomaly in Delhi HC. There was no need to file
additional writ on the same ground and if Association was keen to do it then it
should have been for UP GRADATION OF PENSION.The Leadership contested that
they have included DA Merger as a plea and up gradation will be automatic. The
argument was so silly रोना आगया I
2. Let us forget what happened
but what transpired after that is ridiculous. Rajasthan HC gave favorable
judgment on both counts of DA Neutralization and Up Gradation of pension and
dismissed the review petition of LIC. It was बल्लेबल्ले situation. This was the time
for Retd. Cl I Assoc. to withdraw its writ from Delhi HC and lend full
support to Asthana case as LIC was sure to go to SC.The Association did not do
so and continued with their Writ in Delhi HC. Delhi HC concurred with
Rajasthan HC Judgment.
3. In case Retd. Cl I
Offi. Assoc. had withdrawn their writ after Rajasthan HC Judgment this
situation would not have arisen. Honb’le Supreme Court could not revert the
matter to Delhi HC as no writ existed. Hob’le Justice Mishra of Supreme
Court was more than Pro with our case. I repeat his words verbatim “YOU
HAVE A STRONG CASE BUT YOU ARE NOT PREPARED COME PREPARED ON NEXT
HEARING”. Supreme Court would have had to give their decision and it would
have gone in our favour.
4. Delhi HC agreeing with
Rajasthan HC judgement was taken by The Association as their own victory.
Association was now wholehearted engaged in convincing the pensioners that if
they do not join the Association they will not get the benefit of DA
neutralization and arrears. This had electrifying effect and the membership
increased with leaps and bounds. Association went into celebratory mode खाओपीओ एयर ट्रेवल करो मौज मनाओI
Guess whose money.
5. They had huge capital collected by
way of Legal Fund and Increased Life Membership plus compulsory levy of 10% on arrears but they went ahead and engaged Junior Most Advocate at Pittance of a
fee. I still wonder what the collection was for if it was not to have the
services of a Senior Advocate of Repute who could face the Honb’le Supreme
Court with confidence and grit. जोहुआ वह आपके सामने है I करारीहार I
6. Our only hope is SLP in Supreme
Court and it will be the last ditch battle. Retd. Cl I Officers Asscn. Should
shed its ego and go for महागठबंधन I
7. THEY SHOULD ALSO UNDERSTAND THAT
ASSOCIATION JOB IS DEFINITELY NOT TO PLEASE THE MANAGEMENT.
