Min of Personnel, Public Grievances & Pensions
NO REDUCTION IN RETIREMENT AGE
|
There is no proposal under consideration of Government to reduce the retirement age from 60 to 58 years for its employees.
The retirement age for Central Government employees was revised from 58 to 60 years in 1997 on the basis of recommendations of the 5th Central Pay Commission.
The Centre’s total wages and salaries bill for its employees for the year 2010-11, 2011-12 and 2012-13 is Rs. 85,963.50 crore, Rs. 92,264.88 crore and Rs. 1,04,759.71 crore, respectively.
This was stated by the Minister of State for Personnel, Public Grievances & Pensions, Dr. Jitendra Singh in a written reply to Sardar Sukhdev Singh Dhindsa, Dr. T Subbarami Reddy and Smt. Ambika Soni in Rajya Sabha, today.

Briefing the functioning of
the Steering Committee since its formation on 25/09/2014, the Convener of the Steering Committee has said that the Steering
Committee has decided to intervene in the SLP
filed against granting of MACP on promotional hierarchy by the Government
against Shri M V Mohanan Nair (CAT Ernakulam), Shri Babu Ram, Smt Reeta Devi
& Shri Dhirender Singh (CAT Chandigarh).The date of the case of Shri
Mohanan Nair was listed as 08/10/2014 whereas the date of listing of Shri Babu
Ram, Reeta Devi & Dhirender Singh is yet to be posted in the Supreme Court
web site.As regards the engagement of advocates to defend the SLPs, the
convener has said that Shri M V Mohanan Nair has engaged Justice Giri and Shri
Babu Ram, Dhirender Singh and Smt Reeta Devi have engaged Adv O P Badhani to
present their side.
Moreover, all India CPWD
Engineers Association, National Federation of Atomic Energy Employees &
CPWD Engineers Association have engaged advocates to file application for
intervention in the case. Similarly, Shri Sanjay Kumar whose case is pending in
the Delhi High Court has also decided to file an
application before the Supreme Court in order to intervene in the case.
Leaders representing various
Associations/Unions addressed the meeting and asked the Steering Committee to
take the challenge very seriously and all possible efforts should be taken to
resolve the issue positively and the case should properly be coordinated.
While discussing collection
of funds to meet the expenses of the legal action, Convener of the Committee
has said that Shri Mohanan Nair of CAT Ernakulam was not interested to go with
the case because he was not in a position to bear the expenses of the senior
advocate to be appointed to present his side. But following the formation of
this SteeringCommittee at National level, some of the Central Government
Employees under the leadership of Shri Harilal and Srikumar of MES come in
support of Shri Mohanan Nair and has raised funds by collection from the
affected Central Government Employees to meet his legal charges. But, for Babu Ram, Reeta Devi & Shri Dhirender
Singh of Chandigarh have to be funded by this SteeringCommittee as these are
low paid employees and they have no source of income to bear the legal
expenses, the Convener said. The SteeringCommittee discussed the matter and
unanimously decided to arrange financial support to Babu Ram, Reeta Devi &
Shri Dhirender Singh to meet the legal expenses.
Thereafter, collection of
contributionto meet the expenses of legal charges has been discussed and the representatives
of the Associations present in the meeting voluntarily gave consents to give
funds. Consents from 15 Associations viz. Census EDP Staff Association, Survey
of India Group B Officers Association, IBM Administrative Staff Association,
All India Central Ground Water Board Employees Association, Survey of India
Ministerial Staff Association, All India Statistical Investigators Association,
Statistical Officers Association, Akashwani-Doordarshan Camera man Association,
Postal Engineers Association, All India Archeological Survey of India Employees
Association, IMD Administrative Staff
Association, CPWD Assistant AD Association, All India CPWD Staff Association,
All DDA Engineers Association, Shri D P
Sing &V M Tripathi of AIR, have been given to contribute Rs. 7,60,000. The representative
of All India MES Civil Engineers Association has said that decision regarding contribution
will be intimated to the Steering Committee by next meeting. Shri P S Prasad of
Karnataka COC has said his COC will consider payment of contribution on receipt
of a request letter on the matter from the Steering Committee.
It was also decided that no
contribution will be paid in the form of cash and the amount need not be paid
to the Steering Committee. The Associations have to pay contribution for which
they have given consents in the meeting in the form of crossed cheque to the
Advocates directly as per the directions of the Steering Committee under
intimation to the Steering Committee.
The meeting has authorized
the Convener to contact all Associations which are in the mailing list of the
Steering Committee to obtain their consents in connection with payment of contribution.
The
meeting ended with a vote of thanks
