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