revision of pension in accordance with the formula prescribed by the 7th
CPC and calculation of arrears of pension and the CGHS facilities provided to
the pensioners. Many speakers pointed
out the revision of pension in the individual cases is being done slowly in
their respective states and wherever it is revised the banks are giving credit
in the respective accounts of the pensioners further in a slow manner due to
several reasons including staff shortage. Similarly, many speakers voiced their concern
about the shortcomings and deficiencies in the facilities provided by the CGHS. The Secretary General Shri.KKN Kutty promised
to take up the matter with the concerned authorities. The Secretary General also spoke about the
registration of the Federation under the relevant laws in force in Delhi and
