**********************************************************************************************************************************************Our take on this report:
L.I.C of India is awash with funds.
And yet L.I.C of India doesn't pay arrears and dues to its resigning ex-employees!
Since 26 years!
Does anyone care about us at all?
The Government of India and the Finance Ministry of India definitely owe us an explanation!
They must ensure that we are given our dues with compound interest immediately.
"Patience has its rewards", as the old adage goes...
Will our patience pay off?
Only the Government and the Finance Ministry of India can answer!******************************************************Dec 24, 2015
