Qualifying service in pension for tn govt aided lect.

Sir i am a retired lecturer in an aided govt college in Tamil Nadu. I retired in Jan 2012, i had received letter three days back. I noticed 6years have not been included.

I joined as a lecturer in FIP(Faculty improvement programme) under UGC pay (3yrs), and then extended as Temporary service under TN govt pay(3yrs). After one month break, joined Regular service(28yrs 3months).

Now , pension's qualifying service year has not included his first (3+3)years.

i have been in same institution all these years.

Why it is not included? and can it be added service if approached court ?

Please clarify my doubt.

Linkage of full pension with 33 years of qualifying service should be dispensed with. Once an employee renders the minimum pensionable service of 20 years, pension should be paid at 50% of the average emoluments received during the past 10 months or the pay last drawn, whichever is more beneficial to the retiring employee. Simultaneously, the extant benefit of adding years of qualifying service for purposes of computing pension/related benefits should be withdrawn as it would no longer be relevant.

sir, I am a education, Govt Aided Institution retired person. 30yrs of service means he/she is entitled for full pension. so am i entitled for full pension ? JDC has not added my initial 6yrs (3yrs FIP + 3yrs Temporary under State Govt) to my qualifying service. they have just considered only 28yrs (state govt). So sir , can i claim full pension (for 28+3)yrs ?
