There is an atmosphere of happiness among the employees since the dearness allowance of central employees and pensioners has been increased by four percent. The increased DA has been implemented from January. Dearness allowance increased to 42 percent. At the same time, the government has taken such a decision, due to which the central employees may get a big blow. Actually, the rule related to gratuity and pension has been changed by the government. In this, the government has issued a strict warning to the Central Government employees. If the employees ignore this warning of the government, then it can be very heavy on them.
Know the important rules
Recently, dearness allowance for the month of January has been announced for central employees. At the same time, some time ago a directive was also issued by the government, in which there is a warning for the employees. According to this, if any employee is found negligent at the workspace, strict action will be taken against them. Under this, his pension and gratuity can be stopped. The government had issued a notice in this regard on November 2022 last year. In such a situation, if an employee is negligent in his work on the job, then his difficulties may increase after retirement. Under this, instructions have been given to the concerned departments to take action against the guilty employees.
These officers have been given powers
Pension and gratuity after retirement of guilty employees to the President, who is the appointing authority of the retired employee, the secretary attached to the concerned ministry or department under which the retiring employee was appointed and the retired employee from the Audit and Accounts Department to the CAG have the right to stop. If any departmental or judicial action has been taken against the employees during the job, then it will be necessary to inform the concerned authorities.
In this case also the rule will apply
An employee is re-appointed on contract after retirement. Retired employee has taken pension or gratuity, after that if he is found guilty then full or partial amount can be withdrawn from him.
Suggestions will have to be taken from UPSC
According to the rules, in such a situation, any authority will have to take suggestions from the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) before giving a final order. Whereas, in any case where pension is stopped or withdrawn, the minimum amount should be Rs 9000 per month.
