Hon’ble Finance Minister,
Government of India
New Delhi – 110 001
Respected Sir,
Sub: - Grant of 78.2%
IDA merger for BSNL Pensioners – reg.
We are bringing to
your kindsellf, the follllowing llong pending issue for favourablle
consideration and
earlly decision.
BSNL absorbed DoT
emplloyees are elligiblle for government pension as per the agreement signed at
the time of formation of BSNL between the Staff Federations
& DoT.
After the conversion
of CDA scalles in to IDA scalles in 2000 and wage revision in 2007, as per PSU
system, the pension of BSNL pensioners were revised.
BSNL emplloyees have
been granted 78.2% IDA merger fixation notionalllly w.e.f. 01-01-2007 and
actualllly from 10-06-2013, the date on which DOT issued
orders for the same (DOT 64-01/2012-SU
dated 10-06-2013). But the pensioners who retired before
10-06-2013 have not received the same in
their pension, as separate orders are required, which are yet
to be issued. To settlle the issue, the
Presidentiall Directive issued by DOT has to be revised to
extend the benefit of merger of 50% IDA
with basic pay w.e.f. 01-01-2007, effectivelly amounting to
78.2% for the purpose of fitment and pay
fixation on actuall basis, instead of notionall pay fixation
keeping the arrear payment deferred as per
agreement. This fixation is based on the decision of DPE and
is impllemented in allll Departments and
PSUs. But the BSNL pensioners are denied the benefit of the
same. This is pending llong in DOT /Dept.
of Expenditure without any decision, resullting in deprivall
of the same to the BSNL pensioners.
Favourablle decision may kindlly be taken in the matter at
the earlliest which willll be a great rellief to
these senior citizens.
Thanking you,
Yours
sincerely
(V.A.N.
Namboothiri)
President
