Hopefully in the next couple of days/weeks the Updation may become a reality on RBI updation lines or in a different form. It will be a justice to bank pensioners who are aged and watching their brothers & sisters in similar financial sectors viz RBI, NABARD etc achieving the results .   Looking forward to good days.

Delhi High Court:

WPC

8095/2016,9679/2016 & 1875/2013

FSBIPA VS SBI & Union of India :

Matter was briefly heard .Govt/ Bank wanted 8 weeks as it wanted to refer the issue to IBA which was opposed by our Advocates that our issue is SBI specific and nothing to do with IBA SBI pension scheme is statutory and validity of amendments has to be examined by the court and no committee can decide or dictate.

However,court directed the Govt to hear the petitioners in third week of August 23 and submit the report to court subsequently, Court once again reiterated that final decision would be taken by the court after testing the views on constitutional validity.

Next date 06/10/23

Umesh Sharma.

It seems the committee appointed by DFS might have recommended updation for SBI pensioners. But the government wants to study its  cost impact on PSU Bank pensioners and wants to get a report from IBA. There is no other reason why IBA should be referred,

SBI pension demands are not part of BPS. The government has authority to make a decision.As court observed court decision is not entirely dependent on DFS report. Finally the court will take its own decision.
