Hon.General Secretary
AIBRF
Respected Sir.
Sub: Long pending issues of Bank Pensioners
Sir, we are happy to note that UFBU has invited AIBRF for discussions on EX gratia and other issues. In this connection we beg your permission to submit
before you the following points for your kind consideration. The issue of Updation has become sub judice and
Pending in SC. For the last three years not a single hearing was held. It is uncertain when the case will reach a logical end.
Pre 2002 retirees are aged between 70-90.
Under the circumstances pending SC verdict, we beg
your good selves to take up the following issues with UFBU which can be resolved as no court cases pending regarding these issues.
1. MERGER OF DA@8088 points.
IBA seems to have a positive mindset on this issue and
has twice suggested UFBU, to submit notes on the merger issue. From your previous circulars we observed that you have
already prepared detailed calculations with notes and charts. we Kindly request you to provide these details to UFBU
and convince them to take up the issue with UFBU on priority basis.
2. Shifting of base year for Calculation of DA.
3. Improvement in Ex gratia.
After a long time UFBU is consulting a retiree association. This is a very good development.
We request you to make best use of this godsend
opportunity and convince UFBU leaders about speedy resolution of above issues, as very few years left for Pre-2002 retirees.
Thanking you
Yours faithfully\
J Somashekar
EX Officer.
