ON COMMUTATION CASE
Comrades P S Ramankutty (Advisor), P Gangadhara Rao (Vice President) and
V Vara Prasad (GS) met in Bangalore during the special CEC meeting of Karnataka
Circle on 21st October 2024. On the occasion they reviewed further developments
with regard to the Commutation case. Following points were noted:
1. Our Patiala CWC adopted a resolution on the issue. Same will appear
in next issue of Pensioners’ Patrika. We demand a general order honouring
various judgements and also taking into consideration the 5th CPC report and
Judicial Commission recommendation. We have given clear justification for
reducing the recovery period from 15 years to 12 years.
2. State Government of Punjab follows central government pattern in the
matter and hence the recovery period is 180 months for its pensioners. Whereas,
some other state governments like Kerala, Odisha, Gujarat etc. have different
rules.
3. Hon’ble High Court of Punjab & Haryana has given interim orders
in number of cases to stop recovery after 128 months. The cases are still
pending and naturally a general order can be expected only after the final
decision is given by the HC. It may take some more time.
4. CAT Chandigarh has ordered to stop recovery after 135 months in a
case filed by two BSNL retirees. It has been honoured by CCA Haryana.
5. CAT Allahabad too has given order to reduce recovery period in
another case filed by one BSNL retiree. CAT Chennai too has given similar
orders. As such, the BSNL retirees are covered by the said Court orders. At the
same time, DoT may delay a decision as different benches of CAT have suggested
different recovery period. Moreover, the DoP&PW has not yet taken any final
decision in the matter.
6. All the VRS (BSNL) optees will be benefitted by the decision of the
Court. They will complete ten years of repayment in 2030 or later on. Out of
the one lakh and odd beneficiaries among the BSNL Retirees large number is our
members. Therefore, there is sufficient cause for filing a case by our
Association. But it is a laborious job to file a case involving all the
affected members.
7. The case has to be filed in PB, CAT only for pan-India application.
8. PB, CAT has also pronounced a judgement for reducing the recovery
period in O.A. No. 2307/2024. Similarly, the Armed Forces Tribunal also gave a
favourable judgement. But the Government filed an appeal before Delhi HC and
the Division Bench granted a stay in W.P(C) 12781/2024 & CM APPL.53286/2024
on 11/09/2024. The case is postponed to 3/12/2024. So, let us wait for the
final outcome of the said case in Delhi HC.
9. Hence, it is felt that, instead of rushing to the Court with a WP, we
should first assess the number of beneficiaries. Hence, our Units should
collect data of members to be benefitted by the legal action. This work should
be completed as early as possible. Once the data is available CHQ can review
the situation again.
