MOST UNKINDEST CUT OF ALL
PENSIONER’S OPTION – 1 MERCILESSLY REJECTED
It is learnt that the Committee chaired by Secretary (Pension) has NOT
recommended the Option Number – 1 recommended by 7th Central Pay
Commission for fixation of pension of pre -2016 Pensioners.
Instead it has recommended extension of the benefit of pension
determination recommended by 5th CPC ie ; arriving at notional pay in
7th CPC by applying formula for pay revision for serving employees in
each Pay Commission revision and consequent pension fixation. Now the
Implementation Cell of 7th CPC is studying the recommendations of
Pension Committee for processing for submission for approval of Cabinet.
Thus , the one and the only favourable recommendation of 7th CPC ie;
the real parity in Pension which is also approved by Cabinet with a
rider “subject to feasibility” is going to be mercilessly rejected by
Government , inspite of repeated requests and demands from NJCA,
Confederation and Pensioners Associations .
