BUT THESE ORDERS DO
NOT APPLY TO STATUTORY BODIES LIKE LIC. See Para 20 of the memo.
below.
""20. These orders do not apply to retired High Court and Supreme Court Judges and other Constitutional/Statutory Authorities whose pension etc.is governed by separate rules/orders. ""
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO US.
IT MEANS UNLESS CENTRAL GOVERNMENT AMEND OUR PENSION RULES 1995 TO INCLUDE REVISION OF PENSION ON EVERY PAY REVISION OF EXISTING EMPLOYEES LIC PENSIONERS ARE NOT ENTITLED TO REVISION (UPDATION) OF PENSION.
Hon'bl SUPREME COURT has also clearly & unequivocally observed in their order dated 31.3.2016 that LIC BOARD RESOLUTION cannot be implemented unless rules are amended by Parliament.
My humble submission to the PETITIONERS ASSOCIATIONS is to PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do consultant their Senior Advocates, Legal Advisors, Leaders whether they can convince SUPREME COURT to change their order and say that revision (Updation) of Pension can take place without amending Pension Rules. Failing which all SLPs for Revision of Pension will be a futile exercise at a heavier cost of money time and energies. My these free and frank views may not be appreciated by many of pensioners leaders, but a clear writing on the wall cannot be ignored and as such please do ponder over this important point and move cautiously.
With best wishes and regards to all.
