On our continuous visits and interactions with pensioners, we came to know that one Liberalized
Family pensioner was drawing less pension:
Name: Smt.V.Vallathai W/O Late Sep. Chelliah Moses.( died in 1971 war) Reg.No; 2552648.
PPO.No: F/ BC / 1019/72 Record Office: MRC.
PDA: Indian Bank, Tirunelveli-Junction, Tamil Nadu.
On going through her pass book entries, it was noticed that her pension was not revised as per CDA Cir 456. She was being paid at the rate of 6747 instead of 9200/-.
We reported the discrepancy to the PDA and the Branch Officials were kind enough to accept our findings and submission and assured to revise the pension and pay the arrears to the tune of
2 Lacs plus with in a weeks time. In the mean time we have received confirmation from MRC records ,the Rate of pension as Rs.9200/-
The Widow pensioner was so happy and thanked us for the efforts taken up by the Welfare Trust for getting her pension revised and a hand sum amount of arrears.
Dear Veteran brothers, please find out such widow pensioners and help them in whatever way possible as most of them are un-educated and un aware of their entitlement.
Dear Sir,
ReplyDeleteIt is a very useful information. The only draw back is our people do not read such useful information and give comments to encourage such postings. Any way thanks a lot for the information.
