Observe the following:
57.36. The judge said “Ultimately the DA gets merged into the pay….even for the calculation of pension”
“Revision requires merger”
59.15
Even if it is supposing 100 rupees it does not fit into the scheme then he can’t get it
1.13
The appendix typically provides for two windows and it leaves out the windows in between – Consciously
1.22
Mr Mehta If the similar processes has been followed or similar routes have to be taken,, there has to be a merger
1.58
(100 percent DA) Neutralization is merger only
My understanding:
The IBA/Banks counsel has come well prepared. He has explained well that there is no provision in the Regulation for updation. He has also explained how the case was dealt with in the lower court and how suddenly Regulation 35 has been taken up now, which was not there earlier.
He has also explained how Clause 12 of the MOU contains the provision “to be negotiated and settled”
The judge seems to be much confused with the 100 percent neutralization and merger of DA. For pre 2002 pensioners we have got 100 percent DA neutralization. This DA is not merged with Basic. The judge also seems to have the view that merger of DA is the updation or revision of pension. What we expect is not a token increase of future DA due to merger of DA periodically.
It is also surprising that no one from the petitioner or respondent explained that for pensioners there is no DA merger so far and even if DA is merged,, it does not amount pension updation similar to RBI pension.
All in all, nothing is there for pensioners to celebrate from this hearing.
