Old pension dispute can be resolved soon, CM Tirath said these things

CM Tirath Singh Rawat assured proper action to the teachers who were deprived of old pension benefits. The government will take a decision after consultation with the cabinet sub-committee formed in the old pension case. On Monday, the teachers met the CM at his residence under the leadership of Yogesh Ghildiyal, the provincial joint minister of the State Teachers Association. By giving a memorandum to the CM, the teachers told that the spokespersons and LT teachers, who were recruited from the same release in the year 2003 and 2004, are being given different pensions due to delay in joining. Due to the delay in the departmental process, a large number of teachers could not join till 30 September 2005.

With this they have been removed from the old pension scheme and they are being given a contributory pension scheme. Ghildial said that the court has also decided in favor of teachers that they should be given the benefit of old pension. Ghildiyal said that instead of complying with this order, the department filed an SLP in the Supreme Court. Due to this a discrepancy has arisen on the pension among the teachers recruited from the same release. CM assured to consider it. The delegation included Vijay Mishra, Deepak Gaur, Vipin Naithani, Jaiprakash Bhandari, Deepak Chandra etc.
