UNION BANK RETIRED EMPLOYEES' ASSOCIATION

All India Bank Retirees' Federation,
Indore (MP).
Sir,
Registration of the Banks' Pension Fund Trusts
As we communicated to you earlier, from the replies which we received from (i) Union Bank of India as well as (ii) Public Trusts Registration Office, Mumbai, the Pension Fund Trust of Union Bank of India is not registered with the Public Trust Registration Office. It seems that it is not registered with any other authority also. Anyhow, with a view to reconfirm the fact, we have filed a fresh RTI application specifically asking a pointed question that with which authority it is registered. A copy of the said new RTI application is sent herewith for your perusal.
Shri D.A.Masdekar, President of our All India Union Bank Retirees' Federation informed us that the Pension Trusts of (1) Bank of India and (2) Bank of Baroda are also not registered. This may be the position of other Banks also.
We know, nowadays you will remain extremely busy for other organizational matters. However, whenever your time permits, please advise affiliates of AIBRF to inquire with their respective Banks and let you know whether their Pension Fund Trusts are registered. Thereafter we may think for some collective steps.
With regards,
Y ours sincerely,
B.G.Raithatha,
General Secretary
