7th CPC: Anomaly arising from the decision to reject option-1 in
pension fixation – Staff Side 

Goverment of India, Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances &
Pensions, Department of Personnel Training, North Block, New Delhi,
Letter F.No.11/2/2016-JCA-I(Pt.) dated 30th October, 2017 regarding
Items proposed by the Staff-Side, NC(JCM) for discussion in the National
Anomaly Committee — Comments of DoPT regarding

Staff Side, NC(JCM) – Anomaly arising from the decision to reject option-1 in
pension fixation

DoPT comment: As per the ToR of the NAC, anomalies are basically
pay-centric. Under this point, the contention of the Staff-Side is
pension-centric. Furthermore, the Staff- Side has themselves clarified
that post-7th CPC, Government had set up a CoS headed by
Secretary(Pension) to look into the first option recommended by the 7th
CPC. Eventually, this was not found feasible to be implemented. With
such a decision having been taken at the CoS level, it cannot be called
an anomaly. In view of this, we may inform the Staff-Side to separately
take it up with D/o Pension without treating it as an anomaly that can
be taken up at the NAC.
