Monthly
meeting of LIC (Retd.) Officers Association will be held at Hotel Classic at 11 AM on Sunday FIRST SEPTEMBER.
Circular issued for the meeting states: "Today we, the pensioners are in a dilemma – on the one hand we
recall with pride our 30/40 years long dedicated service to the Institution, on
the other hand we are faced with a situation, rightly put forth by Sh.
R.B.Kishore, VP, AIRIEF – “why LIC is denying justice to pensioners
despite 3 victories in Rajasthan
HC,Single Bench,Div.Bench & Review...
" Despite these victories, justice
eludes us. It is apparent LIC wants to
prolong the legal battle. They have the luxury of spending huge amounts to
engage battery of eminent lawyers who
advise LIC how to circumvent Court Orders. Their tactics are to exhaust poor pensioners’
patience so that they start asking “for how long should we continue to
contribute to the LEGAL FUND”. Friends, a soldier fights on the front till the
last drop of his blood. We have so far won our case all through so why should
we be impatient. Let us take OATH on the Anniversary Day of LIC that as we
served the Organization with full
devotion; similarly, we will not allow paucity of funds to hamper legal battle
come what may.
- In the special meeting held on 15th Aug., Sh.I.P. Puri, Jt. Secretary, AIRIEF has given a call for contribution of Rs.2000/- each. Spontaneously, members present in the meeting paid it and now our similar request is to ALL THE PENSIONERS.
" We are in touch with the members of
Panchkula Unit & met at the residence of Sh.S.N.Chhabra. It has been decided to form a joint committee
with Sh. I.P.Puri as Co-ordinator. It will seek further legal advice re:
implications of 19th Aug, orders of the SC because LIC’s SLP has now
been reduced to Civil Appeal while appeal for stay was rejected.
" Your participation in the meeting
and your liberal contribution to the LEGAL FUND shall be appreciated. It is in
our interest to defend the victories registered so far. "
