Dear Veterans
This refers to arrears paid for
increase in pension as per recommendations of 6 CPC to all employees of
of central Government w.e.f. 24 Sep 2012.
Government has already paid the arrears
to civil employees from 1 Jan 2006. However this was denied to Armed Forces
personnel on most stupid ground that the arrears will not be paid to those who
had not gone to court.
RDOA had gone to court for arrears to
be paid to Armed Forces also. The case was won but the Government decided to
file SLP against the SC judgment. The SLP came for hearing on 17 March 15,
after many extensions. Honorable SC has declined admission of SLP and asked
Government to release payment of arrears w.e.f. 1 Jan 2006 within four months.
These arrears are for modified parity in pension paid w.e.f 24 Sep 2012.
Government counsel once again told
Honorable SC that the arrears w.e.f 1 Jan 2006 will be paid to only litigants.
On this plea Honorable SC had said that this will again increase your and our
work load because within few days rest of personnel will soon approach SC for
the arrears and Government will have to pay. Therefore it is better that the
arrears are paid to all personnel of armed forces.
Government counsel appealed that
Government does not have money for such large payment. On this plea again
Honorable SC ruled that if Government can loose thousands of crore in coal
blocks this payment is chickenfeed infront of that. Hence the arrears will have
to be paid within four months.
These were oral discussions in the
court, we will have to wait for formal order by the Honorable SC and the
reaction of Government on the judgment. IESM will go to court on behalf
of all personnel of Armed Forces in case Government refuses to pay arrears to
all affected Armed Forces Personnel.
Please wait for written judgment of
Honorable Supreme Court.

Sir,
Pension of veterans was revised wef 01-7-2009 and further correction was effected on 24-9-2012. But correction of 24-9-2012 was not applicable to all the veterans and my pension remained unchanged. Now, the question is that,Will this judgment be applicable to veterans like me also? : Jagtar Singh
Gen sec. Is the news correct. If it is why the delay.
