Friends

It is very sad that we lost our case today. But our efforts were full and sincere. It happens once in every one's life. But it happened twice. Elders say that every move of the Almighty has some meaning. I thought it is right when we lost in 2015 and we were shown light in filing this case. And we brought this case again to Supreme court. We even boasted ourselves that we had the strength to do it, which no other Association would have even dreamt of.

We struggled to bring it and I personally thought God's action has always has meaning. Now with the result of our case is out today I wonder whether the wordings of elders are true. 

Life goes and we experience plus and minus throughout our stint in this world. 
May God give us strength to take this type of failures.

Many in our association sent messages not to loose heart, and a few called me and shouted at me that i have miserably failed and would never forgive. One thing is sure that each one of our office bearers and executive members worked with utmost sincerity for the past 14 years going through out India to collect subscription and Legal fund, suffering with the climate change and change of food habits, leaving aside their personal agenda, with the only aim that the intention of the Management and selfish attitude of the then Union/Association  heads' should be defeated and we should get our Arrears. The one point Agenda only made our Nisvrrea alive and we sustained for 14 years, which no other Pensioner's Association  can dream. But unfortunately we lost our fight. You all may think the major fight is over and there is nothing more for us to have an Association.

No, please don't ever think like that. The present attitude of the Unions and Officers Associations' have become more selfish, and moreover the Government's and the top Court's attitude are finance centric. we should be more vigilant to oppose any future moves by these people, if it goes against us. The messages I received from most members gave me the strength to sustain the shock and dismay over the Judgment. Then I thought Nisvrrea has to continue its presence and address the problems of the pensioners. This case is only a part of our actions. But there is more to serve pensioners. The next fight on line is to concentrate on for people who retired under SVR scheme with less-than 20 years service, and for pension updation, cases pending in Chennai and Madurai. The above are major points pending in Court. Of course, we should help pensioners in getting their 1/3 commutation basic in March 2019.

For all the above do we the middle class pensioners,aging day by day,have strength?

The answer is, What Response you people give for the leadership and the selfless work given by the Office bearers and Executive Committee members.

Yes we will meet in our next General body to be fixed in November or early December to chalk out 'What next'. 

Me and our team still feel that we should never loose heart and every year of aging should bring all of us more youthfulness and strength to enjoy our life and fight for our rights.

Last but not the least, I thank one and all, on behalf of my Team, who gave Whatapp support, and telephonic calls to get out of my shock and disappointment over the Judgment with folded hands.

Thanks very much friends,

Dear friends
after a long wait at Delhi for the case, at last amidst all ambiguities our case came up for final hearing on 27th of September. at around 12 35 pm. We started explaining our case with our Advocates Sri. Goutham Narayan and Senior Advocate Sri. Guru Krishna kumar, and we finished our arguments by 3 15 pm. after that representing the companies Sri. Rakesh Dwivedhi and Sri Jaideep Gupta started their counter arguments and finished at around 4 pm. Then we requested the Bench to extend time, so that we can finish our defence and willingly the Bench sat and we finished our arguments at around
4 10 Pm.  Then the Bench rose for the day with an announcement that the judgment is reserved.

friends, we have been struggling for this  day for a long time and our members continuously praying for the hearing and we succeeded because of the perseverance we shown and the support of our members.

Now every thing is left to the Almighty and let us wait for the result.

GENERAL SECRETARY.
