New Delhi: The biggest concern of government employees is getting a pension after retirement. These employees often have to visit government offices to get their pensions started. The Modi government has taken a marvelous initiative for employees retiring during the Corona virus epidemic.
Central employees will now start getting pensions without any hassle after retirement. Union Minister Jitendra Singh on Monday said that Central government employees retiring during the Covid-19 epidemic will continue to receive temporary pension till the regular pension payment order (PPO) is announced and other formalities are completed.
He said the decision was taken in view of the epidemic and lockdown. Government employees may have difficulty in submitting the pension form to the head office or they may not be in a position to submit the claim form of the service book to the physically related pay & account office. This problem is exacerbated especially if both offices are in different cities. Jitendra Singh, Minister for Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions, said, "It is for the Central Armed Police Force (CAPF) which is constantly moving from one city to another and from its head office, pay and account office space to another city." He said that since the Modi government came to power, the Department of Pensions and Pensioners Welfare has been given a new look. It is designed in such a way that it can give PPO to the concerned employee from the day of retirement without any delay. Singh, however, said that due to the Kovid-19 epidemic and 'lockdown', PPO could not be given to some employees who are retiring this time due to disruption in office work. "But the present government is sensitive towards pensioners and senior citizens, so the rule can be waived under CCS (Pension Rule) 1972 to avoid delays in regular pension payments," he said. So that the payment of temporary pension and temporary graduation can be made till regular PPO is given without any win.
