NATIONAL COORDINATION COMMITTEE OF PENSIONERS ASSOCIATIONS
A clarion call is given by NCCPA to hold demonstration against the sinister move of the Central Government to surreptitiously pass despite opposition in parliament on 25.03.2025. The call is for demonstration on 3.4.2025 in front of CG Offices in all Districts by the Affiliates of NCCPA. The call is as follows:
NATIONAL COORDINATION COMMITTEE OF PENSIONERS ASSOCIATIONSNo. NCCPA / Protest Dated 27th March 2025
NCCPA calls to protest against the sinister move of the Government to deny the Pensioners their genuine rights!
The Government had passed a bill along with the Finance Bill 2025 on 25.03.2025 to declare any Pensioner retired in the past as a separate entity and the right of the Government to declare that the past pensioners cannot claim any benefits allowed to Pensioners retiring afresh from the Government service.In short, the move of the Government is against the spirit of the landmark judgment of Supreme Court that the Government cannot divide the Pensioners of same class to artificial cut-off dates which is violative of Article 14 of the Constitution of India. The Government is trying to establish that the Pensioners of same class can be divided by different cut-off dates and no Pensioner can claim the benefit extended to new Pensioners. This amendment will deny any benefit to the past pensioners to treat them with the future pensioners. The move of the Government to not to move the bill to bring separately but as part of the Finance Bill 2025 surreptitiously and passing the bill on 25-03-2025 despite the opposition from the Opposition is condemnable.
NCCPA calls upon all affiliates and the Pensioners Community to stand firm on the face of this new onslaught by the Union Government and protest vehemently. NCCPA calls all its affiliates to demonstrate before any Central Government Office of all Districts and voice our clear opposition to the move of the Government. The Peasants’ struggle is an example and if all Pensioners can unite and demonstrate at Delhi the passed bill can be made withdrawn.
As a first step, we the NCCPA can hold protest demonstrations before Central Government Office in all Districts on 3.4.2025 and send the reports with photos to the headquarters of NCCPA. NCCPA will discuss with the Affiliates and take a view on this important issue and act.
Yours faithfully,Sd/- (K.Ragavendran) Secretary General NCCPA
