Jammu , Feb 4
J&K pensioners association, Jammu today staged a dharna against the callous attitude and criminal silence by the government for non implementation of the 6th pay commission in favour of state pensioners.
Addressing the meeting, Jagdish Dogra alleged that the government has not issued any order to pay the arrears on account of revision of pension, w.e.f. January 1, 2006 and withhold the D.A instalment of 10% due w.e.f. July 1, 2010 when price-rise is all time high.
Ram Lal Sharma demanded that medical allowance be enhanced from Rs 300 to Rs 1000 per month since pensioners need more healthcare in their old age .
The association warned the Govt. not to treat pensioners casually as they can change the political establishment at the time of elections. The association demanded that the arrears be given in one instalment without any delay. Others present in the meeting included Sawaran Singh, M.L.Bhagat, O.P.Gupta, Vakil Singh, KL. Basholota, Sat Paul Sharma, Yash Paul Seen.
