Increase in the rate of Additional Pension and Family Pension to the old pensioners – IRTSA

May 5, 2022 Rani

INDIAN RAILWAYS TECHNICAL SUPERVISORS ASSOCIATION

No:IRTSA/ CHQ/ PENSION/2022-4

Date:26.04.2022

Secretary Finance (Expenditure), North Block,
New Delhi – 110001

Respected Sir,

Sub: Increase in the rate of Additional Pension and Family Pension to the old pensioners.

Ref: 1. Recommendations of 110th report on “Pensioner’s Grievances-Impact of Pension
Adalats and Centralized Pensioners Grievance Redress and Monitoring System (CPENGRAMS)”
2 Our earlier memorandum No:IRTSA/7th CPC/RB/2015-2 dated 14.12.2015

1. We seek your kind intervention to consider and revise the rate of Additional Pension and Family Pension to the old pensioners as per the recommendations of 110th report on “Pensioner’s Grievances-Impact of Pension Adalats and Centralized Pensioners Grievance Redress and Monitoring System (CPENGRAMS)”

2. In para 3.28 of 110th report on “Pensioner’s Grievances-Impact of Pension Adalats and Centralized Pensioners Grievance Redress and Monitoring System (CPENGRAMS)”, it was recommended that, “…. The Committee is of the view that the Government should sympathetically consider the demand of Pensioners’ Associations for 5% additional quantum of Pension on attaining the age of 65 years, 10% on 70 years, 15% on 75 years and 20% on 80 years to the Pensioners. The Committee recommends DoPPW to pursue vigorously with Finance Ministry and apprise the Committee of the outcome”.

Additional Quantum of Pension

On attaining age of Additional

quantum of pension

65 years 5% of basic pension Additional quantum of pension Recommended by the committee
70 years 10% of basic pension
75 years 15% of basic pension
80 years 20% of basic pension Existing additional quantum of pension
85 years 30% of basic pension
90 years 40% of basic pension
95 years 50% of basic pension
100 years 100% of basic pension

3. Sixth Pay Commission had recommended additional Pension of 20, 30, 40, 50 and 100 % for retirees and family pensioners on attaining the age of 80, 85, 90, 95 and 100 years respectively. But this did not meet with the requirements of those in the age group of 65 to 80 years of age for meeting additional expenses on old age diseases and disabilities and other unforeseen exigencies, which further increase even faster in later years. Recommendation of Sixth Pay Commission for grant of 100% additional Pension after 100 years of age was illusionary and unjust in view of rare chances of survival up to or beyond 100 years of age. 7th CPC has also not changed these conditions.

4. 7th CPC in para 10.1.11 observed that of the total 51.96 lakh pensioners, 37 percent are in the 60-70 age group, about 26 percent each are in the 70-80 and ‘Others’ age group. The balance 11 percent are in the 80 plus category and thus entitled to enhanced pension based on advancing age. 7th CPC recommended for continuing existing rates of additional pension and additional family pension.

5. Granting additional pension / additional family pension from above the age of 80 years only covers 11% of old age pensioners and family pensioners. Pensioneers / family pensioneers from the age of 65 years incur more medical expenses due to their health conditions, high expenses for medical treatments, medicines, etc.

6. Hence it is requested that, Additional Pension / Family Pension may please be paid at following rates – in view of steep increase in the expenditure on Medical treatment and health care in old age and as recommended by the committee

a) 5% additional Pension/Family Pension after 65 years of age
b) 10% Additional Pension/Family Pension after 70 years of age
c) 15 % additional Pension/Family Pension after 75 years of age

Thanking you

Yours’ faithfully,

(Harchandan Singh),
General Secretary, IRTSA
