Govt. grants OROP, now would LIC grant us our arrears?

 The Government has finally granted OROP to the ex-defense personnel. Three cheers to that belated but good decision. This is a prospective payment.

Now would LIC take the cue and please grant its resigning ex-employees their legally rightful dues; their wage revision arrears and difference in retirement dues, w.e.f. 1997? This is a retrospective payment. 

All the resigning ex-employees were on the rolls of the Corporation on the date from which these retrospective payments were effective, but were unjustly denied payment, arbitrarily, as admitted by LIC itself, in its response to my RTI application dated 11th February, 2012.

The ongoing Insurance Week celebrations would be truly meaningful if LIC cares to release our dues too!

Isn't it said in Hindi, "Der aaye, durust aaye!"

and in English, "Better late, than never!"
