 कामये दुःखतप्तानां प्रणिनामार्तिनाशनम्॥


TO ALL PENSIONERS & WORKING:

(NCR & ADJOINING CITIES)


In future, friends, don't say that no one initiated the movement or carried out the movement. The Dharna of February 4, 2024 is dedicated to the elderly Pensioners of the Country, who are facing financial difficulties for want of Pension Revision. 


√ Despite government advice, Banks did not provide Health Insurance from the Welfare Funds. 


√ Due to Special Allowance, Pensioners after November 2012 are getting thousands of rupees less Pension every month.


√ All the Pensioners living in NCR and its surrounding CITIES, as well as those Bankmen who are currently in service & are pension Optees, should participate in this Dharna at Jantar Mantar without fail. 


√Difficulties will not be resolved by sitting at home. The vicious behavior of Unions is not hidden from anyone. Unions have transformed into extortion gangs. It has become their profession to collect subscription  every month and levy from arrears of every settlement from their members. 


√ Previous agreements were delayed by around three years. This time the agreement was concluded in 10/11 months. 


√ Despite the dispute of Special Allowance being subjudice in the court, SA has been increased and the Pension Revision was postponed on the pretext of being subjudice in the court.


√ Walk out of the house. Keep medicines and water with you. 


✓✓ If you have difficulty alone, please come with spouse or with someone else . The eyes of the Pensioners of the Country are fixed on you. The success of the Dharna will give a big message. Therefore make it successful at any cost.


Wish you GRAND success.

भविष्य में न कहना दोस्तों कि किसी ने आंदोलन की पहल नहीं की और न आंदोलन किया। 4 फरवरी , 2024 का धरना देश के वयोवृद्ध पेंशनर्स को समर्पित है, जो पेंशन रिवीजन न होने के कारण आर्थिक कठिनाईयों का सामना कर रहे हैं। 


√ सरकार की सलाह के बावजूद बैंकों ने कल्याण निधि से स्वास्थ्य बीमा नहीं कराया। 


√ स्पेशल एलावंस के कारण नवंबर, 2012 के बाद के पेंशनर्स हजारों रूपया हर माह पेंशन कम पा रहे हैं। 


√ एनसीआर और उसके आस-पास के नगरों में रह रहे सभी पेंशनर्स के साथ-साथ वे बैंककर्मीं जो अभी सेवा में हैं और पेंशन विकल्पी हैं, जंतर-मंतर पर इस धरने में शरीक हों। 


√ घर बैठे रहने से कठिनाइयां कम नहीं होंगी। यूनियनों का शातिराना व्यवहार किसी से छुपा नहीं है। वे वसूली गैंग में तब्दील हो गई है। सदस्यों से हर माह चन्दा और हर पांच साल में होने वाले समझौते के एरियर से लेवी की रकम वसूलना उनका पेशा हो गया है। 


√पहले समझौते तीन वर्ष की देरी से हुआ करते थे। वहीं समझौता इस बार 10/11 महीने में संपन्न हो गया। स्पेशल एलावंस का विवाद अदालत में विचाराधीन होने के बावजूद इसे बढ़ा दिया गया और पेंशन रिवीजन को कोर्ट में विचाराधीन होने के बहाने टाल दिया गया।


√ घर से निकले। साथ में दवा और पानी रखें। 


✓✓ अकेले कठिनाई हो तो किसी को साथ लेकर आएं। देश के पेंशनर्स की निगाहें आप लोगों पर टिकी है। धरने की सफलता एक बड़ा संदेश देगा। इसलिए इसे हर हालत में सफल बनाएं।


सफलता की कामना के साथ,

Solidarity of NCCPA to Bank Pensioners!

Banks Pensioners Dharna in Jantar Mantar New Delhi on 04.02.2024!





Comrades! Banks Pensioners are staging a Dharna on 4th February st Jantar Mantar of New Delhi. Our NCCPA affiliates All India PNB Pensioners & Retirees Association and All Kerala Bank Retirees Forum.are sitting with them.


Comrades Basavanand (Deputy Secretary General NCCPA & Former SG ITPF) & S.C.Pandey ( Org.Secretary NCCPA & Audit and Accounts Pensioners Association) are requested to represent NCCPA in the Dharna and address our solidarity. 


I request all Affiliates of NCCPA in Delhi to mobilise our members and directly support the banks Pensioners in the Dharna. Kindly take our flags and banners to.show that we are with them. As I have to be present in AIC of P4 NFPE at Kottayam, I miss the programme. 


The Dharna is to oppose the so called ex-gratia instead of updation of Pension etc entered into bipartite settlement by all Unions of serving bank staff. Pension updation was never done in banks for decades and it is our duty to support the just demand!

NCCPA Emails to Prime Minister for grant of Notional Increment!

 NCCPA Writes to Honourable Prime Minister!

After seeing the confusion created by the OM of Comptroller and Auditor General of India, who normally consulted before issuing any OM by the GOI, the NCCPA decides to write to the Honourable Prime Minister of India personally and to the PMO for intervention in this urgent matter. In addition to seeking the intervention of JCM Staff Side Secretary to write to the Government on this issue, NCCPA is writing directly seeking the intervention of the Honourable Prime Minister too.
Letter was addressed to the Honourable Prime Minister seeking his personal intervention early to put a full stop to the confusion caused. The letter addressed to the Prime Minister and sent by email are placed for the information of our members – KR SG NCCPA
National Coordination Committee of Pensioners Associations
(Registered under TU Act)
NCCPA / Notional Increment Dated 20.01.2024
To
Honourable Prime Minister
Government of India
New Delhi – 110001
Respected Sir,
Sub: Request to issue OM by DOPT for granting notional increment for all eligible Pensioners retired on 30th June and 31st December and vacating the confusion created by Comptroller and Auditor General in his OM – reg.
The National Coordination Committee of Pensioners Associations (NCCPA) would humbly request you to study the following and grant the notional increment to all retired on 30th June since 1.1.2006 and on 31st December since 1.1.2016.
The Government’s stand point was not acceptable to the Supreme Court of India and also to many High Courts of the country and they have all ruled to grant the increment notionally and refix the pensionary benefits for the litigants of 30th June and 31st December retirees. Kindly refer to the judgments of the Supreme Court delivered on 11.04.2023 (Civil Appeal No 2471 of 2023), This judgment of the Supreme Court was delivered after taking various High Court Judgments into consideration. The Supreme Court was categorical in its judgment that it would amount to arbitrariness if the notional increment is denied to Government Servants retired after one year of unblemished service and also would be like punishing the Government Servants for no fault of them. Thus, the Supreme Court was in complete agreement with the verdicts of Karnataka, Madras, Delhi. Allahabad, Madhya Pradesh, Orissa and Gujarat High Courts. The Government can note that all the intervening applications were allowed and the benefit was conferred by Courts.
Kindly refer to the reply given out to JCM Staff Side Secretary by the Official Side that the issue is receiving attention in the background of different Court Judgments. All of us are eagerly waiting for the favourable stand of the Central Government to be released in the OM of DOPT. But to our shock and disbelief the OM issued by the Comptroller and Auditor General vide its OM on 18.01.2024 stated that the notional increment will be granted only to those who retired on or after 11.04.2023 or 30.06.2023 onwards! The belief that normally all Orders are consulted with the Comptroller and Auditor General by the Government is adding to the confusion.

This NCCPA requests your personal intervention and cause to issue the OM by the DOPT to clear all confusion early and also to grant the notional increment to all including the Audit & Accounts Employees covered by Comptroller and Auditor General by correcting the mistake in that OM.
Thanking you Sir,
Yours faithfully,
Sd/-
(K.Ragavendran)
Secretary General

Let us wait and act!

 30th June Notional Increment!




Comrades! First please understand as to why in Comrade T.Mani & others judgement in Madras High Court is not appealed by Government through SLP in Supreme Court? Why many judgments in various courts were honoured by Government? 


Reason is it is contemplating issue of general OM allowing notional increment to all eligible officials. This is the main reason for the behaviour of Government. Otherwise, we know better, that the attitude of Govt is to drag every one till the last level of all courts. 


Secondly, the letter of Official Side to JCM Staff Side Secretary that the issue is under active consideration of Govt is to be cited. Why such a letter? If the government rejects an issue, it will reject like DA/DP arrears or Other issues. So, let us wait for the final action of govt. 


Please wait! NCCPA will guide you properly at the appropriate time! - KR SG NCCPA-
