WAIT WITH PATIENCE


Jaipur High Court has granted 4 weeks time as sought by LIC for compliance - what exactly is not clear in the absence of detailed report/order of the court--may be LIC has been directed to furnish compliance to Court on 29 November, 2013 on the judgment dated 12-01-2010 or may be more to it. Will someone in the know of details of court proceedings/order kindly enlighten for benefit of all ?

GOI/LIC and the honourable Courts (should) know that pensioners, by and large (with few exceptions) in their eighties +, eighties and seventies have lived /have been living in very low/low dignity compared to recently retired pensioners in the midst of similar conditions of high /higher - sky rocketing inflation. The demands, among others, of 100% neutralization of dearness relief to those who have been denied and equitable updation of pension to all are neither unreasonable or nor unjust.

All pensioners irrespective of their affiliation to their respective union/association know what Shri Asthanaji and others are engaged in the legal battle for more than ten years. The beneficiaries are not just the old guys, the old retirees, the future retirees too to receive the benefit. All Pensioners may continue to be steadfastly assertive / supportive to the leaders and wait with patience.
