Mass signature campaign
AIFPA did a mass signature campaign recently , demanding the
following ..
Merger of DR ( 50%
from 1-1-2011, and 100 @ from 1-1-2014) with pension/Family pension.
Grant of Interim relief (25 % of Pension/Family pension)
early, pending adjustment in the final recommendations of 7CPC.
The “mass signatures” were
given to our Prime Minister and Chairman of 7CPC, on 14-10-2014.
And more !
The Finance Minister
in a brief had observed adversely that the
additional expenditure due to implementation of ‘One Rank One Pension’ scheme to be implemented in respect
of the Defense Forces , would be
around Rs. 16000 crores during 2014-15. He
had also imposed 10 % cut on the Revenue expenditure by all Ministries.
Under such circumstances, it would not be prudent to expect
this Government to implement the demands
for an Interim relief and merger of DA with Pay/Pension, during this Budget Year.
Employees and Pensioners may be forced to take recourse to
agitational methods to force the Government
to concede the legitimate demands. Employees organizations are thinking on the
future course of action to secure the demands. Pensioners may follow !
