Subject: Pensionary benefits of medically decategorised Chief Loco Inspectors (CLIs) who opt for voluntary retirement.
******
NFIR had raised a demand in PNM forum vide item No.06/2022 that 30% pay element be reckoned for computing retirement benefit in respect of Chief Loco Tnspectors (CLIs) who have been medically de-categorised and decide to
take Voluntary Retirement instead of opting for redeployment in an alternative
post.
2. The matter has been examined in Board's office in consultation with Finance
Directorate/Railway Board and it has been observed that in terms of para-8 of
Board's instructions dt. 03.07.2019 RBE No.108/2019), CLIs are already
entitled for add on pay element of 30% of basic pay for the purpose of
pensionary henefits. However, to address the specific aspect brought out by the
Federation, it has been decided that whenever a medically decategorised Chief
Loco Inspector governed by RS(PR)1993, who has rendered the prescribed
qualifying service opts for Voluntary Retirement either on his own volition or
within a period of one month from the date of offer of the first alternative
post, his pension may be computed with addition of 30 Pay element.
3. In case such staff does not give option of Voluntary Retirement within the outer limit period of one month specified herein above, it will be deemed that the staff has accepted the alternative appointment offered and in this case,
retirement benefits will be governed by extant instructions on the issue whenever he superannuates or opts for Voluntary Retirement thereafter.
4. The period of one month to opt for Voluntary Retirement for those medically decategorised CLĪs, who have already been offered the alternative posts, will start from the date of issue of this letter.
5.The above clarifications shall take effect from the date of issue of this letter. Past cases already settled need not be reopened.
6.This issues with the concurrence of Finance Directorate of the Ministry of Railways.
