Pension Revision : The Judgement of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in IFCI vs Sanjay Behari case ruled out Pension Revision in IFCI for VRS optees. Where as, for those who retired on VRS in MTNL, pension was revised in 2012. Though various VRS schemes do not follow same precedents, it has to be clearly spelt out that, for VRS optees of BSNL, Pension will be revised under Rule 37 A as and when Pay Scales are revised. Commutation : Para 6.2(c) of BSNL VRS scheme states that VRS optees shall be eligible for commutation of pension without submission of medical fitness certificate up to one year from date of becoming eligible for commutation. To this effect, relaxation is needed in CCS (Commutation of Pension) Rules 1981 and neither BSNL nor DOT has the power to relax. Necessary relaxation has to be obtained to dispel doubts. Payment of Pension, GPF : For months together, BSNL has not deposited GPF recoveries & Pension Contribution to DOT Cell. When AUAB leaders met CMD., BSNL on 7.11.2019, it was mentioned by CMD that special care will be taken to clear such dues, atleast, of VRS optees. If these and other dues are not cleared timely, delay will be there in settlement of Pension, GPF, etc.
