GOOD NEWS FOR BANK RETIREES

Dear Friends,
In order to sort out the long pending issue of Updation of Pension of Bank Retirees, the Indian Banks Association (IBA) has reportedly formed  a committee of eight General  Managers of PSBs, Mr Kharwa, Chairman of SBI and Mr Sunil Mehta, CEO of IBA under the Chairmanship of Mr Raj Kiran Rai, Chairman of IBA. They will meet on 22nd June, 2021.

It is hoped that the wisdom will prevail upon the Committee and the issue of Updation of Pension is resolved on the lines of that of RBI.

Let's await their report. Regards.
Ashok Patil

I contacted my friend in Central bank who in turn got in touch with Sri Lakshman rao. He informed nothing is finalised. Only committee form, who will deliberate all these in. 22-06-2021.So let us keep our crossed for the day, if any surprise to happen under FM/PMO instructions through DFS like RBI. May Bhagawan bless all of us.

Friends,
It is a welcome News and when from  responsible  persons/sources,  should be believed  and no negativity please. Many people on this blog were spearheading the campaign for various issues of retirees.  Covid-19 was a worry for all and the delay should be attributed to unavoidable circumstances. We must feel gratitude for everybody and anybody who has taken so much pain. At least request those who say "ALL LIES"  must desist from spreading negativity and that person has never said anything positive on this blog.  Some are even cursing the FM sheerly out of frustration. Friends, the lady Hon'ble FM is the only FM who has taken so much interest in bank retirees and we must be thankful to her and the God who brought such a FM to the forefront.  Never seen such a FM or any minister during my career spanning from 1973,  who has  talked  so openly in your favour and with much compassion and was listening to your voice. But she also had to run the finance administration of the country, more particularly in toughest times like Covid- 19 situation,  the damon, second waive. I had been maintaining since her first interview in October 2020, that now the pension updation has to happen, but  is a matter of time.  This reach is not far away and shall happen during this year. This is what I feel and efforts were needed and the people/associations are on the job. We must reinforce their efforts and encourage them.  Hope for the best and best of luck to all.
Stay safe and healthy.
Regards.

We should  stop discussing about misuse of pension funds or excess and shortage of it. Once Government approves updation bank will provide funds.
As on date we do not have even iota of evidence to prove pension funds are misused. Even one gathers some evidence it takes at least 10-15 years to prove it in court. As pensioners what do we gain by this? Even Banks take away some funds they have to replenish it to pay pension.This is totally unwarranted and useless exercise.
Court has already passed verdict in 5 years case, 50% Basic pension case and pension option to VRS that denying these benefits were wrong. We got justice after 18 years. But union leaders expressed regret for being party to such agreements. Banks /IBA even gave further tension by not implementing verdict properly.
While it is so it is day dreaming that few pensioners can make these people responsible for imaginary allegation of misuse of pension funds.
We need to concentrate on pension updation to get a better updation scheme.

Yes, I fully agree with Mr.JSoma Shekara that at this point we must stop discussions on unsubstantiated matters and concentrate on how to get our long pending legitimate demands achieved. Discrimination and denial of payment of 100% D.A.to the pre Nov.2002 retirees is an old and long pending issue raised along with updation. We must consider both the issues to be settled to the satisfaction of the retirees.

Friends two messages are in circulation 
1. By Shri Ashok Patil on IBA committee 
.      It is 100% correct.

2. Someone having met everybody.. DFS, FM as well as PM..  that sounds like WhatsApp university creation.    Still, for the sake of positivity created people are enjoying it.

PM and FM have not come from Mars. They are elected by people. AIBRF women members wing, Chennai retiree association and others have met FM and submitted representation. Many MPs have met FM and presented recommendation letters to FM.
If Union leaders seek appointment with FM it will be granted.
Instead they prefer writing letters.
