Sir,
The process of verification of PPOs is going on without any official circular/notice. The senior citizens, pensioners, sick and old are worried about the verification of their pension records. It would have been in the fitness of affairs, if the verification of these records, had been done at the bank branches, wherefrom pensioners get their pension dues, since this job has been assigned to the J&K Bank for years together now. The pension records also are in possession of the Bank Managers. It seems quite atrocious to take the pension book from the bank to treasury, get it back and then deposit in the same bank. The Director General Treasuries has not so far issued any notice in this regard. It is submitted that the concerned officer may issue instructions to the concerned authorities so that harrassment caused is removed.
Finance Minister may also take due cognizance of it and find a lasting solution to the problem, by authorising concerned bank branches to verify the pensioners’ records.
Yours etc…
