NCCPA writes to SG BPS
Dear Comrade Maheswariji – Greetings. We are glad that we saw that the BPS is moving forward to unite all the pensioners associations on the issue of formation of 8th Central Pay Commission by the Central Government. NCCPA and all its affiliates are ready to cooperate with BPS for the formation and submission of a united memorandum as before while Comrade S.K.Vyas was alive and strived to create a common memorandum. Kindly invite us to your meetings for creation of common approach in this issue – Regards – K.Ragavendran Secretary General NCCPA.

Thank you for your mail. BPS welcomes all who come forward to join hands to pursue common issues jointly & severally. Including a common memorandum to the 8th CPC.I will be at Chennai from 21stJuly 023 A.N to 22.7.23 to attend AIFPA Chennai (our MOU Partner) annual conference. We can meet there if possible. BPS AGM will be on 18.11.2023 at Delhi. The meeting can be fixed earlier also. Earlier I told Comrade Mishra ji also that BPS is ready to work in coordination, but merger or affiliation with others is not possible. Due to old age ailments, my movements are very limited I am now 86 and searching for my replacement vigorously. One more thing I wish to share.BPS is not in favour of creating Department wise Associations. – Regards – S.C.Maheswari SG BPS

Dear Maheswariji – greetings. Received your reply email today and very happy to note that your organization BPS is ready for united approach on 8th CPC. Kindly fix any date and we are ready to attend and New Delhi may be a better venue due to easy attendance for you. On 19th July to 21st i will be in Delhi while you visit Chennai. Therefore, any date after 10th AUGUST we are free to attend the meeting fixed by you. We are talking about united action only and our respective organization will function in its present structure and direction. Merger or affiliation is not in the cards. Your ideology of not favouring Department wise organisations or our ideology of both Department wise or CGPA type of organisations working together under a common umbrella need not come in our way of united and common action on our unified tactics on 8th CPC formation and presentation of common memorandum and united approach. Looking forward eagerly of a date prescribed by you for attending in it – Let us forget or sideline our other differences and follow united approach on agreed item. Regards – K.Ragavendran Secretary General NCCPA

Constitution of 8th cpc and getting it’s recommendation and implementation take 3_4 years. As everyone knows that general election will be held in Feb March 24 and that announcement may come in January. So hardly six months are left. To get some thing like increasing minimum basis pay from the present 18000 to 26000, (fitment factor) increasing fixed medical allowance from 1000 to 3000, revision of pension those who are the age of 65,70,75 and so on to be taken by all Centra PENSIONERS association together or individually. Once date of election is announced nothing will be done by govt. Many recommendations are with finance ministry and FM is least bothers about central PENSIONERS since govt holding majority in LS and calculating to get majority again to form govt in May 2024. By the time ram mandir temple will be ready in ayodhya.. what else needed to propaganda among Hindus to get votes. In south India it is a different picture and that of WB . So urgently write to PM and FM for increasing fixed medical allowance to 3000 and revision of basic pension of those who completed 65 years . Additionally fitment factor to get minimum BASIC pay from the existing 18000 to 26000. When one ran one pension is implemented for defence PENSIONERS in every five years,how and why civil PENSIONERS too brought similar schemes. Because they are part parcel of central service and have to serve anywhere in India. Best wishes to all PENSIONERS.
