Respected Sir,

Sub:   Proposed delayed payment of Pay and allowances to officials having accounts

and pensions in CBS offices – reg.

            It is learnt that due to running of interest on 1^st April, the CBS offices are advised not to upload Pay and Pensions on the 1^st April the due date for Pay and Pension. So it has further been advised to effect payment on 4^th April.

            In this connection we are annoyed to bring to your kind notice that Pay and  Pensions cannot be refused on the due date by a general order, unless or otherwise the country is declared under financial emergency. Further there cannot be any discrimination between officials having SB accounts in CBS office with that of those who having accounts in non-CBS offices.

            We therefore , request you to kindly look into the matter involving violation of the rules on the subject and natural justice and ensure that the Pay and Allowances are effected uniformly on the due date by means of drawing Pay and Allowances through AR’S and Pen-5 as the case may be.

            A line in the reply is solicited.

           

Thanking you Sir,

Yours faithfully,

  [R.SARAVANAN]
