CCA KARNATAKA'S EFFORTS FOR IMPLEMENTING PENSION PAYMENT FROM CCA OFF BG

On 26-10-18 we met CCA Karnataka and had a detailed discussion after making over a copy of the letter sent to MOSC regarding CPMS. He assured us all the apprehensions we raised will be taken care of by the time the existing pensioners are brought under CPMS portal. Initially it will be for those who are retiring in November and afterwards.

On 29-10-18 ,CCA has created a WA group  " BSNL. DoT retirees Nov' 18 ". Participants are from all SSAs, CCA staff connected with Pension , our CHQ President Com. PS Ramankutty and myself.

Today on 1-11-18 , CCA conducted a training session with the representatives of all SSAs. Myself and Com. R Changappa CS KTK have also been invited to attend.

Joint CCA Mrs. Arulmathi gave presentation mainly on

1). HOO ( Head of office ) unit module ( SSA )

2). Retiree module

3). Pension section module

4). PDA module

5). Grievance Management module etc

Mostly on November 23rd the portal will be operative in Karnataka and detailed process has been explained for the benefit of the coordinating officers from SSAs, immediately about

a). Superannuation

b) Family

c) VR

Pension cases.

CCA has assured to open PENSIONERS' LOUNGE at  the following major cities in KTK as suggested by us

Bangalore

Mangalore

Mysore

Hubli

At these places CCA staff will assist  the SSA staff as well as Pensioners of these SSAs and also neighbouring  small SSAs.

When we expressed repeatedly about our apprehensions regarding

1) Submission of Life Certificate every year especially by the Pensioners from remote areas and

2) Getting Form 16 for IT purpose ,

CCA has again assured us in the presence of all SSA representatives that these problems will be addressed to the best advantage of the Pensioners.

We are happy that a very good initiative has been taken by CCA Karnataka.

We are hopeful that he will make it as a pro- pensioner portal.
