Dear Sir,

Subject: Nomination by Pensioners under the Payment of Pension (Nomination) Rules 1983 for Payment of Life Time Arrears Reg. Non Compliance of Instructions of DOP&PW by PDA Banks

Ref i) Payment of Arrears of Pension (Nomination) Rules 1983 notified on 10-09-1983.(Annexure I )
ii) DOP&PW OM No.1/2(40) 2022-P&PW(E) Dated 31-3-2022
iii) RBI Master Circular Ref: DGBA.GBD. No. S2/31.02.007/2022-23 Dated April 01, 2022
iv) RSCWS Memorandum No. RSCWS/HO/CHD/Memo DOPPW/2022-23 Dated18 1-2022

1. This is to bring to your kind notice that the PDA Banks are not complying with the Payment of Arrears of Pension (Nomination) Rules 1983 notified on 10-09-1983 (Annexure I ) inspite of reiteration of the latest instructions to all PDA Banks issued vide DOP&PW Office Memorandum Dated 31-3-2022.

2. This is in violation of RBI Master Circular Ref: DGBA.GBD. No. S2/31.02.007/2022-23 Dated April 01, 2022 which inter alia lays down that ‘All Agency Banks are advised to scrupulously follow all the guidelines/instructions contained in various notifications of Government (Central as well as States) and take necessary action immediately without waiting for any further instructions from RBI’.

3. Pensioners are neither being sent the Acknowledgment of the Nomination Form A for Payment of the Life Time Arrears NOR is the endorsement made about the said Nomination on the Pension Slip – as required under item viii) and ix) of Actions by the Pension Disbursing Authority/Bank vide the orders of the DOP&PW dated 31-3-2022 cited above. This is bound to cause undue anxiety to the Pensioner and hardship to the Nominee because there is no assurance to the pensioner about the nomination being taken in the data base of CPPCs.

4. It is, therefore, requested that the PDA Banks may please again be advised to comply with all the instructions issued specifically for PDA AUTHORITY/BANK vide DOP&PW OM dated 31-3-2022.

Yours’ truly,

(Harchandan Singh)
Secretary General, RSCWS
