.Dear Comrades

,It is very much encouraging to note that National Pensioners Day on 17-12-2021 has been celebrated through out the country by AIBDPA units. In some Circles it was organised jointly with other Pensioners Organisations like AIPRPA, CGPA & NCCPA by hoisting flags, holding meetings, felicitating the super seniors, distrbuting sweets etc. The Great services of Shri. D S Nakara and others who fought relentlessly to get the historical judgement from the Supreme Court were remembered. So also saluted the Judges of the Constitution Bench of the Supreme Court headed by Chief Justice Y V Chandrachood of the Supreme Court who delivered the landmark judgement.

AIPRPA organised a well attended Webinar in the evening. Ms.Swapna Jha, Senior Counsel, Common Cause, New Delhi delivered the key note address. Com. D K Rahate, President, AIPRPA presided. Com.K Ragavendran, General Secretary, AIPRPA welcomed all and delivered the introductory speech. Coms. K K N Kutty Secretary General NCCPA, K G Jayaraj General Secretary AIBDPA and C C Pillai, former Secretary General, NFPE also addressed.

CHQ heartily congratulate all the Comrades for making the celebration of National Pensioners Day a grand success.

With warm greetings,
