New Delhi, India – A massive dharna was organized at Jantar Mantar in Delhi under the banner of the FCPA Delhi State affiliates, where leaders unanimously expressed disappointment over the low participation of pensioners in the ongoing protest action program.
The affiliates resolved to intensify efforts at the grassroots level to mobilize members for future agitation programs organized by the FCPA/NCCPA headquarters, stating that the struggle is directly against the government to safeguard the legitimate rights of more than 7 million pensioners.
Several senior leaders addressed the gathering, including Mr. Ishwar Dabas (Convener); Mr. S.K. Sharma (Vice President, NCCPA and Member, NC JCM); Mr. G.L. Jogi (General Secretary, SNPWA); Mr. Anupam Kaul (Deputy General Secretary, AIBSNLPWA); Mr. R.K. Mudgal (General Secretary, MREWA); Mr. Tyagi (Veteran Leader, Civil Accounts); Mr. A.K. Kaushik (General Secretary, RTOWA Delhi); and Mr. K.C. Verma (State Secretary, AIPRPA Delhi State).
Speakers highlighted key concerns affecting pensioners, including the repeal of the Validation Act, changes to the Terms of Reference of the 8th Central Pay Commission (CPC), and the withdrawal of the Surpurna Medical Claims AYUSH Insurance Scheme. Leaders alleged that these measures amount to a systematic attempt to weaken pensioners’ rights.
