THE SAME MAY BE VERIFIED BY OUR ADVOCATRE MEMBER PRESENT IN JAIPUR (MR P.C.SINGLA TO INFORM MR.M.C.SINGLA, CHANDIGARGH) LIC Pensioners UPDATION Case Victory for the Pensoners----------------------from Net FLASH (B V Narasimha Rao reports) Just received information,LIC pensioners ultimately won the case and the Hon Court declined all the requests of LIC management and directed to implement the Pension revision immediately. Asthana is a beacon for all of us and we must be greatful to him for the Historical Victory.Long live Asthana. LIC Case in brief: Sh. KML Asthana and 26 other pensioners (of all cadres ) filed in Jaipur H/Court 2 separate Writ Petitions 6676/1998 and 654/2007 on the above two issues. On 24.11.2001, after taking into account financial outlay involved, LIC Board passed a resolution in its Board Meeting held on 24.11.2001 recommending updation of pension consequent upon the revision of pay scales of in service employees and removal of DA anomaly & sent it to Finance Ministry. *The Hon’ble High Court, Jaipur clubbed both the Writs and delivered historic judgement on 12.1.2010 stating “both the writ petitions are allowed. The respondent Corpn. is directed to take a decision for implementation of the resolution dt.24.11.2001 passed by the Board.* LIC filed an appeal in the Division Bench at Jaipur. It was dismissed on 21.1.2011. But LIC filed Spl. Review Petition at Jaipur and also filed SLP in the Supreme Court. On 15.7.2011 the Hon”ble SC disposed off LIC’s SLP because of SRP pending in the Jaipur Court. LIC’s Spl.Rev.Petition was also dismissed on 19.8.2011.by Hon’ble Divn.Bench,Jaipur. Sh.Asthana filed contempt petition against LIC for not implementing HC Judgement which is pending. LIC filed SLP in Supreme Court which came up for hearing on 14.11.2011 and Hon’ble Bench passed the order “issue notice returnable in 10 weeks & stayed contempt proceedings subject to the condition that LIC deposit the “amount due to employees” in HC Jaipur within 8 weeks. However, instead of honouring SC orders, LIC has deposited a paltry amount of Rs.4,35,513 on 23.12.2011. Sh.Asthana has submitted a comprehensive reply to SLP in the Supreme Court and also filed fresh contempt petitions against LIC for not honouring the orders of SC in full. On 7.2.2012 the Advocates were called by the Registrar SC and now the Govt. has also become a party. So far Govt. advocate maintained in the High Court that the Govt. has nothing to do and the matter is to be decided by the LIC. As per various judgements delivered by Supreme Court, there cannot be discrimination between the pensioners on the basis of date of retirement, whereas you will find from the chart given below submitted by Sh. Asthana in SC, difference in pension being drawn by Pensioners: CADRE RETIRED BETWEEN BETWEEN AFTER FROM BEFORE 01.08.1992 01.08.1997 01.08.2002 01.08.2007 31.07.1992 -31.07.1997 -31.07.2002 -31.07.2007 ASST 1430 2750 4498 6825 10525 HGA 1730 3350 5598 8438 13145 D.O. 1940 3760 6150 9255 14433 AAO 2130 4255 7008 10455 16320 AO 2260 4485 7368 11015 17230 ADM 2525 4975 8125 12315 19630 DM 2675 5225 8625 13290 21430 SDM 2975 5725 9500 14665 23980 (Is updation/revision of pension to Bank Pensioners nearing?)
