OFFICE MEMORANDUM
Sub:- Revision of PPOs of pre—2006 family
pensioners — regarding.
The undersigned is directed to refer
to Secretary (Pension)'s d.o. letter No.42/68/2009-P&PW(G), dated the 25th
May, 2011 and 8th June, 2011 concerning revision of Pension Payment Orders
(PPOs) in respect of pre-2006 Pensioners consequent to implementation of 6th
CPC recommendations.
2. It is heartening to learn from replied
received the Ministries/ Departments that they are responsive to the needs of
Pensioners/Family Pensioners. In the mean while, Central Pension Accounting
Office (CPAO) has issued an advertisement, which has been published in the
Newspapers on 3rd September, 2011, requesting pre-2006 pensioners/family
pensioners to provide prescribed information to the Head of the
Department/Office concerned for issue of revised PPOs. In another advertisement
published on 15th and l6th September, CPAO has circulated its toll-free
telephone number 1800-11-77-88 for registration of grievances. Therefore, all
the Ministries/ Departments are requested to seize the opportunity and revise
the pre-2006 PPOs at the earliest possible.
3. It has come to the notice of this
Department that the family pensioners are a sufferer's lot as the Banks have
not revised the family pension in most of the cases and it is being paid either
at the pre-revised rates or at the minimum rate of Rs.3500/- per month.
Therefore, all Ministries/Departments and PAOs are requested to take up the
matter of revision of family pension as first priority.
