Let me thank Shri RK Viswanathan for his comments:
"Bouquets to you for the excellent portal you have created for the benefit of the pensioners."
Whether your Editor deserves it or not, Shri Viswanathan appeared to be sincere when he sent the bouquet to you.
That was an excellent selection of photograph for
TEEN DOSTON KI KAHANI.
Kudos to the Editor.
GNS commented: "These friends should understand that even judiciary will not direct change of policy which is the prerogative of the executive. This can be broken only by hard canvassing by combined efforts of all".
I would better go by the argument put forward by Shri RK Viswanthan when he says:"the plea that the pension rules are uniform for both the Insurance and Banking industry and therefore any change to benefit the pensioners in the Insurance industry would have a ripple effect in the Banking industry is their domestic problem and cannot be mixed with the legal issues which has been the outcome of obnoxious pension rules negating the fundamental rights of the pensioners besides creating different classes within the same class of pensioners."
"It is obvious that Shri Nartarajan is oblivious of the Interim order of the Supreme Court dated 14/11/2011 and clarificatory order of the same court on 17th Oct 12 on the basis of the main prayer before the Supreme Court," writes Shri KKD Hanumantha Rao.These are the two orders which Shri Asthana would like to forget. He did not get all the relief he wanted from these orders and finally he had to go back to Jaipur court where the fate of contempt petition was sealed off.

Poor Dinker Shukla from Jamnagar was at the receiving end. But he was an honest and a straight forward gentleman. He just aired his views. Dinker can continue to do so. Atleast at this age, we should not be afraid of anybody. Also there is no need to 'withdraw' your comments!
LIC PENSIONERS CALICUT should be grateful to him for he afforded an opportunity to the blog to conduct a very good discussion.

- Sorry to note, nowhere it is written that he is a good administrator. Good orators are seldom good administrators, I'm afraid. They will only burn midnight oil to practice speeches for the coming days!
