Difference in pension

Namakkal Raghavendran (Querist) 13 September 2017 This query is : Resolved
Consequent on the final acceptance of the 7th Central Pay Commission, the government announced the pensions
for those who retired prior to 1-1-2016. As per this formula, it now turns out that pensioners who retired long ago are getting upto 20% less pension than those who retired after 1-1-2006, even though both worked in the same post and grade for the same no of years before retirement. Can this be challenged legally?

There is no bar in challenging any issue, if you are able to justify your stand quite effectively.

ex-soldiers have been fighting for one rank pne pension since long and this is exactly what you have stated.

This has also been recommended by 7th PC that his benefit be extended to all. Please check online if it is accepted.
