Deputy Secretary to the Govt. of India
It is to be seen when the work is done.So
many queries already put forth by the settlement section in SrDPO’s office BZA.we
have to wait and see.
Do the Dept.s concerned want to over power the Govt.by way of asking for the information which are are already with them for each of the pensioners ? Sad it is nothing other than to delay the process and harass the pensioners .
Yes, all details are available with the Head of Office and Pension Sanctioning authority. Aadhar has already been linked. There is absolutely no necessity for any additional information from pensioners.
