Sub:    Implemation  of   governments   decision   on  the  recomendations  of  the  sixth  central  pay  commission - revision  of  pension  of  pre - 2006 pensioners/family  pensioners  etc



            The  undersigned  is  directed  to  say  that  in   this  departments   OM  of  even  number  dated 21.5.2009  and  11.8.2009  it  was  provided  that  in  case  the  information  regarding  date  of  birth/age  is  not  available  in  the  PPO  or  the  office  records,  certain  documents  would  be  accepted as proof      of date of birth/age for payment of additional pension/family pension on completion of age of 80 years and above.It was also provided that the pension  disbursing authority/bank will make payment of additional pension/family pensionin the above manner, on provisional basis up to a period of three months from the month in which the proof of age /date of birth is submitted by the pensioner/family pensioner to the pay account officer/CPAO for formal authorisation of the additional pension/family pension.The pension disbursing authority/Bank will make payment of additional pension/family pension beyond a period of three months only on receipt of such authorisation from the pay and Account officer.



2  Certain pension disbursing banks to whom the documentary proof of age was submitted by the pensioner/family pensioners have informed that many Pay &Account officers  to whom the same is forwarded as per the OM of even number dated 21.5.2009,have not communicated to them /their final authorisation in accordance with the above instrctions.These banks are,therefore finding it difficult to continue the payment of additional pension beyond three months in the absence of the formal authorisation.The PAOs who are receiving the proof of age  may get it  sanctioned from HOO/HOD as per  procedure invariably.In case of pensioner/family pensioner is unable to submit any of the documents mentioned in OMs dated 21.5.2009  and 11.8.2009 but claims additional pension based on some other documentary evidence,such cases will be subitted to  administrative Ministry.If the administrative ministry is satisfied about the claim of the pensioner/family pensioner,it will authorise additional pension/family pension accordingly.The decision of the administrative ministry in this regard will be final.

3   CGA is requested to advise all Pay & Accounts to take immediate action for getting the additional pension sanctioned from Head of Office/HODs so that  the final authorisation of the additional pension may be  done bythe PAOs.
