THE ADDITIONAL PENSION IS A GREAT BLESSING TO AGED PENSIONERS.
The sixth pay commission was kind enough towards aged pensioners. Pensioners above 80 to 85 years are allowed additional pension of 20%, 85 to 90 are 30%, 90 to 95 are 40% and 95 to 100 years 50% and 100 years and above are given double their eligible pension.
No doubt it is a great blessing to aged pensioners, provided some one helps these aged pensioners to get the benefits.
Almost all the active workers of the Exwel Trust are above sixty years, but they are very much helpful to the age group of 80 and above. Accordingly, Sgt.S.Kandiah (Age 67) and Hon.Flt.Lt.Natarajan (Age65) both are very helpful to the aged pensioners for getting the additional pension.

There are many aged pensioners not above to avail the benefits of this additional pension, as there is no body to help them. An appeal is made to all concerned to help these pensioners.

THE ADDITIONAL PENSION FOR AGED ABOVE 80 YEARS IS WELCOME, AT THE SAME TIME, HOW MANY WILL SURVIVE TO GET THIS ADDITIONAL PENSION. INSTEAD, IT COULD HAVE BEEN MORE HUMANE AND REALISTIC HAD THE SCPC RECOMMENDED ONE PERCENT INCREASE IN PENSION EVERY YEAR AFTER COMPLETING 60 YEARS OF AGE.
ReplyDeleteDear Veteran Brothers,
ReplyDeleteYou are indeed a great asset to not only the ex-servicemen & their families but also to the rest of the society as the torch bearers to serve the needy amongst us all who deserve the kind of attention given by an exemplary method of service to others without any motive of rewards or recognition in a selfless manner.
I only wish that others should emulate you & serve to fulfill the needs of those who deserve it the most.
EXWEL volunteers like the veterans , Mr Kandiah & Mr Natrajan deserve to be praised/ recognized by all of us & I do feel proud of these Veterans role in helping the Ex-servicemen & their families.
May God bless them with good health & prosperity to continue their mission of service.
With warm regards & best wishes,
Sushil K Sudan (Veteran)
