Bhubaneswar: Mohan Majhi government made a big announcement for government employees. Now, full pension will be ensured to government employees on the day of retirement. Chief Secretary Manoj Ahuja wrote a letter to all department secretaries and gave instructions in this regard.
The government has instructed all the heads of departments under his department and the departments. The pension details of retired employees will be given on the 7th of the following month every month. Chief Secretary Ahuja today wrote a letter to all the departmental secretaries of the state and expressed his dissatisfaction over the non-compliance of the government’s instructions regarding the payment of full pension to government employees on the day of retirement.
He said that although the Public Administration Department had been instructed since December 12, 2019 to give full pension to employees on the day of retirement itself, it has come to his notice that the departments are not following it properly.
Therefore, Ahuja has asked all the heads of departments and pension sanctioning officers under his department to be informed again to provide full pension to all eligible government employees on their retirement day as per the Odisha Civil Service Pension Rules-1992 and the letter dated December 12, 2019 of the Public Administration Department.
