Besides above, whenever any circular was issued by this office after 6th CPC implementation, Pension Disbursing Agencies were requested to send intimation regarding disbursement of revised pension to this office in the format prescribed with the circular concerned. Pension Disbursing Agencies were simultaneously requested to provide invariably a copy of the said format to the pensioner concerned. A brief details of circulars issued and format prescribed for intimation of revision to be carried out by PDA to this office as well as pensioners is given below.

However, it has been brought to the notice of this office that Pension Disbursing Agencies are not providing the details of revised pension/family pension to the pensioners/family pensioners. Thereby due to lack of knowledge pensioners are not sure about correctness of the amount of the arrears being paid to them and most of them have a sense of suspicion against the revision.
To overcome above suspicion, it is requested that an explanatory sheet as per the enclosed format may be provided to all defence pensioners/family pensioners invariably.

I sent three emails to provide me the detailed working of arrears given to me . There is No reply.
I approached CPPC Nagpur, spoke to GM. He clearly mentioned that the details of arrears will not be provided. I would appreciate if CDA can quote me and direct him to do the needful.

Dear Sir,
I am a Defence pensioner of your esteemed bank.
I can manage at my own yet there are my ex comrades who aren’t so lucky, some arent there at all & families making do with what they get expecting the country & esteemed bank like yours to look after them as they being at the education level at they are, have no ways of knowing whether you paid them as entitled.
Isn’t it encumbent on you as a profit oriented organisation to render them at a one page pension or arrears thereof to reassure them that country is paying them deferred wages.
That you aren’t doing it is a shame.
I don’t want to mention my account number for you to think I am complaining about myself, but have decided to that so that you don’t feel I am pseudo.
Well my soldiers were too important for me whom you treat so very unwisely, wish you could spend a day where they spend their lives. nothing to feel proud about the support being provided by you all.
When in doubt, pl face only one God ie you in the mirror as it is only you in who HE resides!
