SUBJECT ; REQUEST FOR EXTENDING THE BENEFIT OF ECONOMIC PACKAGE/RELIEF ANNOUNCED BY THE HON’BLE PM TO THE CENTRAL GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES & PENSIONERS BY RELEASING ADDITIONAL DA/DR DUE FROM 01/01/2020.

REFERENCE : AIDEF LETTER ADDRESSED TO THE HON’BLE PM DTD. 27/04/2020.

Respected Sir,

This Federation vide letter referred above have represented to your honour to reconsider the decision taken by the Government to freeze the 3 additional DA/DR due to the Central Government Employees and Pensioners w.e.f. 01/01/2020. We have also brought to your notice that when the entire country was in COVID-19 lockdown, it is the major chunk of the Central Govt. Employees who are working day and night to fight against the spread of the COVID-19 Virus including the Defence Civilian Employees. You will appreciate that they are all working under serious risk of the Pandemic. While your honour announced a special economic and comprehensive package of Rs.20 Lakh Crore, the Central Government Employees and Pensioners were anxiously waiting for the announcement of the Hon’ble Finance Minister with the hope that the Central Govt. Employees & Pensioners also will be given some relief in the economic package by releasing the additional DA/DR due to them, which was already approved by the Cabinet during March 2020.

Sir, to our dismay in both the economic relief measures announced by the Hon’ble FM even though she mentioned that the Government ‘s attentive to the needs of all the segment of the economy and society, it is unfortunate that no relief has been given to the Central Govt. and the pensioners to overcome the present economic crisis and exorbitant price rise of the essential commodities. Therefore we are forced to knock once again your door for getting justice to the Central Govt. Employees and pensioners. We therefore request you to kindly withdraw the earlier decision taken by the Govt. to freeze the DA/DR and release the same at the earliest.

Awaiting for your earlier and favourable decision please.

Thanking you,

Yours Sincerely,
Sd/-

    Unlike a regular younger employee in government service, a pensioner has to put up with various commitments like children’s marriage, his own medical expenses at advanced age and that of his family nembers. Needless to say that a pensioner gets an increase only when the DA is enhanced. It id therefore just snd necessary that State and Central governments defreeze the DA payable to pensioners atleast, as a gesture of goodwill from the government which they served sincerely for decades in expectation.

    Freezing DA of the central Govt employees & oensioners is contrary to the stimulus economic package to invigorate the floundering economic situation.But with no money at hand after announcement of economic package make no sense as the real purpose for which the package is declared is defeated.

    It’s high time, now that Government have infused 20lakh crores into the economy to rev up the availability of cash in the hands of public, the government should not delay the defreezing of impounded DA to the employees and pensioners.

    Mr Chattopadhyay ji,In times of Pandemic, Can’t you contribute your bit towards national cause by agreeing to keep shut regarding DA/ DR freeze. Instead you should contribute something in PM cares a/c or atleast keep quiet over DA issue. That will also be kind of contribution. CM Kalsi Ex-serviceman IAF

      Language is essence of the human existence. You have used word shut in your comment is neither warranted nor deserves to be mentioned by you. You know the central government employees are working day and night by risking their own lives and families to contain the pandemic. Their dA is freezed and 12 days salary being deducted by government. Before embarking on posting a comment be sure of in depth knowledge of the contents.

    I am a Railway pension holder. I am willing to get payment of DR which has been sanctioned from 1.1.2020 to 30.6.2020. So Central govt. should release the DR freezed earlier.
