Office Memorandum

Subject:-   Payment  of Arrears  of pension  to pre-2006   pensioners   w.e.f.  01.01.2006   in compliance  to DP&PW OM dated 30th July, 2015-regarding

Attention is invited to CPAO’s OM No.CPAO/IT&Tech/Revision (Pre-2006)/2015- 16/941-1011 dated 04.09.2015 followed  by OM of even  no 1016-1086 dated 08.09.2015 & even no 1660  dated  15.10.2015. Through  these OMs, all CPPCs were  requested   to make  the payments  of arrears  of pension  in  compliance  to DP&PW OM dated  30.07.2015.

It  has been  observed  from the latest  reports  based  on thee-scrolls  that a considerable number  of pension revision cases for payments of arrears are still  pending. Out of 21469 cases for which pension  revision authorities were  issued by CPAO on 7th September,  2015,  for as many as  8142 cases  (38%), payment   of arrears to Pensioners’  Accounts    have  not  been effected by Banks  (summarised statement enclosed).

It is advised to clear  the  pendency of  arrear  payments  pertaining to Revision Authorities issued  by CPAO  upto 31.12.2015 latest by 31st  January, 2016. Further,  such long delays  in payment  of arrears to pensioners   is  a serious  issue which  needs  to be urgently addressed  by Banks/CPPCs.
