Finance Minister, Shri Chidambaram recently and convinced him that the additional expenditure on account of pension updation in RBI would not have an impact on its income and would be met out of the pension funds lying with the Bank. 

The Finance Minister, in turn, had a briefing with the Finance Secretary subsequently. In the light of this development, a positive letter from DG(C) has gone to the Finance Secretary.
