DISPENSATION OF LINKAGE OF FULL PENSION WITH 33 YEARS QUALIFYING SERVICE (VI CPC) OF DEFENCE FORCES PBORs - W.E.F. 1.1.2006

1. You are aware that the GOI approved the VI CPC recommendations(Para 5.1.33), on dispensation of Linkage of Full Pension with 33 years of Qualifying Service to earn pension in r/0 the CG civilian employees w.e.f. 1.11.2006 and the GOI( Dept of P&PW), Min of PPG&P issued orders(No.7/7/2008(P&PW(F) d/d 13.2.09). (The linkage of full pension with 33 years of qualifying service should be dispensed with. Once the employee renders minimum service of 20 years, pension should be paid at 50% of the average emoulments received during the last 10 months or the pay last drawn, whichever is more beneficial to the employee. Simultaneously, the extant of benefit of adding years of qualifying service for the purpose of computing pension related benefits should be withdrawn as it would no longer be relevant. - Accepted vide Govt Res.No.38/37/2008-P&PW(A) d/d 29.8.08)

2. Further, payment of full pension on completion of 20 years qualifying service will take effect only prospectively for all Central Govt servantsother than PBORs of Defence Forces, from the date it is accepted by the Govt.

3. Sir, the PBORs are eligible for pension on completion of 15 years of minimum reckonable service, but it is 20 years minimum for CG Employees. The above order authorises full pension at 50% of average pay of last 10 months or last pay drawn, whichever beneficial to the CG employee. The Pre-96 PBORs of Defence Forces are a disadvantaged lot as their full pensions are fixed/calculated on 50% pay on 33 years pro-rata reduction for less number of years of reckonable service. This is a total catastrophe to the PBORs and discrimination and also against equity aand natural justice.

4. You are requested to personally intervene and order for extending the above full pension entitlement of CG employees (on 20 yrs compl.50% average emoulments/last pay drawn whichever is beneficial) to the Defence Forces PBORs also, (on completion of 15 years of reckonable service) keeping in view their conditions of service. This would go a longway in improving the existing pension anamolies of PBORs to a great extent.

5. It is brought to your kind notice that although nearly a full year had elapsed but thee relevant orders for AF personnel (PBORs) are yet to be issued.

6. You are requested to personally intervene and order issuance of above GO in r/o PBORs URGENTLY.

  1. THIS REQUEST MADE BY VN GAVINI IS VERY GENUINE AND URGENT SINCE EVERY DAY MANY EX SEERVICE MEN PASS AWAY FORFEITING THEIR RIGHTFUL BENEFITS. THE POINT THIS LETTER WISHES TO REITERATE IS - ALL PBOR IRRESPECTIVE OF DATE OF RETIREMENT OR NUMBER OF YEARS OF SERVICE - SHOULD BE ELIGIBLE FOR FULL PENSION FOR THE RANK HELD.

  2. Sir,
    MINIMUM QUALIFYING SERVIVE

    For PBORs of Armed Forces- 15 years
    For CG civil employees -20 years

    Atleast 5 years weightage can be added to the total qualifying service for the above two categories while calculating the prnsion on the basis of 33 years prorata reduction. Otherwise,it is unjustifiable by the Committee to recommend or to approve the same judgment by the Govt.

  3. I GURDIP SINGH ex-Personal Asstt. and Honorary Nb Subedar submit, respectfully, that it is injustice and discrimination, and also an insult to a senior person to give him lesser pension than his junior, because - say -the person retiring on or after 1-1-06 is junior to the one who retires on 31-12-2005 in the same rank for same amount of period. It is also submitted that there is no justification in saying that there is no sufficient budget for the seniors as we are providing higher amount of pension on the recommendations of the same pay commission, quite simultaneously but denying the same benefit to seniors. Obviously, our Government pay more care to the seniors, when they become 80, 85, 90, 95 and 100. Here also, seniors deserve the authorities sympathetic consideration.
