He also demanded implementation of order of the Govt of Gujarat and Punjab and Haryana High Court for recovery of commuted pension in the matter of stopping the recovery of commuted pension after 12 years instead of 15 years.
Clearance of the pension papers/NOC etc should be time bound so that retirees and their families should not suffer. SPOs should be paid on time. There has been long delay in the release of their salaries.
