Sir,
Many State Governments were compassionate enough to sanction revised basic pension for seniors aged from 80 years to 100 years and above from 20 percent to 100 percent with effect from different dates. These orders follow those issued by the Govt. of India for Central Govt employees with retrospective effect from 01.01.2006.
The State Govt of J&K has not yet issued the order even after a gap of six years. The plight of elders among senior pensioners is such that they look forward to the order being given effect from atleast 01.01.2007 when orders on the Pay Commission recommendations were issued if not earlier. After all the number of such elders will not be too many.
Yours etc…..
