Gratuity is extreme greediness!

"Gratuity - It is extreme greediness & nothing else. He would get a pension of Rs.62,500 pm. What further he wants. But you these are the souls in DPE & other Ministries who thwarted any proposal to pay monthly ex-gratia (in lieu of pension) on monthly basis to retirees of CPSEs who retired with gratuity of petty Rs. 1 lakh & PF of Rs. 5 or 6 lakhs (retired before 1997) with no pension& who are struggling to get both ends meet. They are 75 years & above & facing multiple
accumulated adverse conditions since they retired- retired at 58 years resulting in less accumulation of PF & loosing the benefit of multiplication of PF amount in next two years, the cost of living gone up by 250%(since 1997), the return on investments(which is the only source of income) has come down by 33%, the increased medical expenditure due to age related problems etc.

Another Mani

Make it understandable

I would like to have one clarification in the calculation made for gratuity in one of the comments (125000x33x15) 26 and calculated amount is shown 24 LAKH. I want to know the symbol before 26 to make it more understandable.

DATE WITH RTI

Can an applicant insist on getting a signature verified under RTI?

Through the RTI application filed with the Department of Revenue, Government of NCT of Delhi, the applicant requested the Public Information Officer (PIO) to verify the caste certificate issued to her husband. The PIO informed the applicant that the caste certificate mentioned by her in the application was not recorded in the register available with them. The First Appellate Authority (FAA) directed the PIO to allow the inspection of relevant records to the appellant. The respondent stated that they do not have any record by which they could verify the authenticity of signature in the caste certificate the
appellant has mentioned in the RTI application. The appellant provided a copy of the caste certificate available with him requesting the PIO to verify whether the signature was that of the then BDO so that he can intimate the reply to the concerned authorities in his office who had questioned the authenticity of his caste certificate. The respondent submitted that he was a junior officer and was not in a position to write to the Deputy Commissioner (the then BDO) and ask him to verify his own signature. The Commission directed that the PIO to transfer the appellant's RTI application to the Deputy Commissioner so that he may give factual information to the appellant after verifying the authenticity of signature (whether it is his signature or not) on the caste certificate the appellant has mentioned.

Comments

Ordinarily, the Commission has adopted the practice of giving a direction to provide the copy of the relevant document like, the caste certificate in this case, rather than getting into the nitty-gritty of verifying the signature. This case is likely to set a trend in future
where someone may be asked to verify the authenticity of documents.
