Anne Hathaway: Moving On from Raffaello?
Anne Hathaway: Moving On from Raffaello?
Taking a break from her busy life, Anne Hathaway was spotted roaming around the Soho district of Manhattan yesterday (September 9) with a mystery man.
The “Princess Diaries” babe flirted with her male companion as they strolled around the Big Apple, stopping off at a newsstand to check out the latest tabloid headlines.
Regarding her split from ex-boyfriend Raffaello Follieri back in June, Anne recently told press the whole ordeal was made even worse by its poor timing.
She revealed, “As soon as I found out about the arrest, I had to get on a plane to Mexico to do a press tour for Get Smart. And then I spent a week in shock at a friend’s house.”
As it turns out, Hathaway’s friends were the key to her coping. “It’s a situation where the rug was pulled out from under me all of a sudden. But just as suddenly, my friends threw another rug back under me. One said, ‘Go stay at my house.’”

Sixth Pay Commission: Navy Chief takes pay panel anomalies to Chidambaram
Sixth Pay Commission: Navy Chief takes pay panel anomalies to Chidambaram
September 10th, 2008 - 8:07 pm ICT by ANI -
By Praful Kumar Singh
New Delhi, Sep 10 (ANI): The armed forces have now taken the battle over the Sixth Pay Commission right to Union Finance Minister P Chidambaram and Minister of State in the Prime Ministers Office (PMO) Prithviraj Chavan, seeking their direct intervention in restoring their parity with their civilian and paramilitary counterparts.
The armed forces wanted the cabinet, rather than the anomalies committee of the Finance Ministry, to consider the matter. The cabinet following the assurance of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, is likely to take up the core issues of the armed forces at its meeting on Thursday.
Navy Chief and the Chairman of the Chiefs of Staff Committee (CoSC), Admiral Sureesh Mehta, met the Union ministers on Tuesday to tell the grievances of the armed forces and anomalies in the Sixth Pay Panels recommendations, said a Defence Ministry official.
Earlier, Amiral Mehta met Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to apprise him about the grievances of armed forces with the August 29 gazette notification of new pay scales.
Admiral Mehta, in his position as the CoSC, wrote a letter to Defence Minister A.K. Antony on September 1 urging that the parity between the armed forces and paramilitary and bureaucracy be immediately restored.
The main grouse of the forces revolves around the fact that the extant parity of Lt-Colonel rank officers has been lowered by retaining them in Pay Band-3 (Rs 15,600-39,100), while raising similarly placed civilians and paramilitary officers to PB-4 (Rs 37,400-67,000).
The armed forces have sought restoration of parity in grade pay for lower and middle rung service officers with their civilian counterparts, who are going to get more as per the new pay scales.
The services are also angry at the fact that all Directors General of Police and their equivalents have been placed over Lt-Generals by the creation of a new higher administrative grade-plus.
The lowering of status of Lt-Colonels and their equivalent ranks in IAF (Wing Commander) and Navy (Commander), who constitute the bulk of the fighting force among officers, is really hurting the morale of forces. (ANI)

Cisco encourages 12,000 employees to work from home
Cisco encourages 12,000 employees to work from home
Wednesday, September 10, 2008
Bangalore: Now IT companies are encouraging the employees to work from home or somewhere else instead of office. Cisco,one of the computer networking majors, has revealed that out of the total 60,000 employees, about 12,000 globally are working remotely.
Cisco's headcount in India has reached at 4000. "We are allowing employees if they want to work at home, when there is no meeting and other activities which he/she is supposed to take part," said Varghese M Tomas, Vice President, Corporate Communications India and SAARC, Cisco System.
Earlier, Wipro, one of the major IT companies in India, had stated that about 1,100 of its employees are working at home in its Bangalore centre only and almost 30 percent of its employees will be allowed to work at home in near future.
As part of making work at home more systematic, Cisco has launched its latest virtual office solution, Cisco Virtual Office (CVO), which intents to address the need of mid-sized and large enterprises to provide access to collaborative business applications and services to their employees working in remote areas. CVO packages routing, switching, security, wireless, IP telephony and policy control technology into a centrally managed office caliber solution that provides highly secure video, voice, data and wireless service.
CVO will enable employees to work in a variety of places with technology and services that are as advanced as if they were sitting at their desk in their office. Employees can access to voice and video over IP communication and all protected within a secure network environment.
As scarcity of office space, high office maintenance cost and increase in total operational cost take most of the businesses away from deploying more workers, CVO is expected to become an option before corporates to employ as many workers as they need.

Michael Phelps Offered Recurring Role On 'Entourage'
Michael Phelps Offered Recurring Role On 'Entourage'
Olympic swimming champion Michael Phelps has been offered a recurring role on hit show Entourage after impressing the cast and crew with a recent cameo appearance. The eight-time gold medal winner landed a role on the series when he happened to walk by the New York City set and producers offered him a part, as himself, in a scene with actor Kevin Connolly.
And Connolly's co-star's are keen to get Phelps back in front of the camera.
Actor Jeremy Piven says, "I could see him coming back as one of the boys. I can see (my character) Ari being very aggressive in recruiting him to represent him and also stopping at nothing to poach him from another client. That's what Ari would do."
Show creator Doug Ellin doesn't seem opposed to the idea, admitting he was stunned by the mass hysteria that ensued when Phelps was spotted by fans on the street.
Ellin adds: "It was the coolest thing in the world. When he showed up, I'm not exaggerating, city buses stopped and people started yelling and within five minutes we couldn't even shoot."

Big Bang : 200 Indian scientists line up for Big Bang effort
200 Indian scientists line up for Big Bang effort
10 Sep, 2008, 0800 hrs IST,Shelley Singh, ET Bureau
NEW DELHI: When the 27-km long Large Hadron Collider (LHC), a particle accelerator, goes live on Wednesday in the Alps along the Swiss-French border, it will kick off one of the largest man-made experiments in history.
Interestingly, it’s not just a massive science experiment being conducted by CERN, a French acronym for the European Organisation for Nuclear Research, but also one of the biggest IT projects.
India's contribution to the $10-billion effort in search of the universe’s missing matter by smashing particles like during the Big Bang is equally impressive. Around 200 of the 2,000 scientists doing the experiment are from India.
The entire system comprising 1,232 cryo magnets, each weighing about 32 tonne, is sitting on precision motion positioning systems developed, among other places, at the Raja Ramanna Centre for Advanced Technology (RRCAT), Indore, by the Electronics Corporation of India.
Indian institutes like Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR), Mumbai, Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Trombay, Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics, Kolkata, RRCAT, Indore, Benares Hindu University and varsities of Delhi, Jaipur, Punjab have contributed significantly to the experiment and will also be involved in analysing the collision debris.Says Amit Roy, director of Delhi-based Inter-University Accelerator Centre (earlier called Nuclear Science Centre): “About 200 scientists involved in the experiment are of Indian origin. “
“India has also been involved in supplying material to build the tunnel and several Indians have played a key role in the whole project,” Mr Royadded.
The monetary contribution by India is $25 million. The prominent Indians who are part of the project include Atul Gurtu of TIFR, an expert on particle colliders, Vikas Sinha of the Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics, Kolkata, who created a chip to process signals, and Vinod Chauhan employed by CERN to lead the group which tested the magnets.
Raja Ramanna Centre for Advanced Technology director Vinod Chandra Sahni says: “No collisions will take place today. September 10 simply marks the launch wherein two beams will be sent in the tunnel, one clockwise and the other anti-clockwise.
The particle smashing at close to speed of light (about 300,000 km per second) will start on October 21. Some particles will collide, triggering new particles that could help scientists understand the universe better.”
The tunnel, buried 100 metres underground, is lined with sensors and 1,600 superconducting magnets across eight sectors, which are held at an operating temperature of 271 degrees below zero — colder than outer space. The LHC accelerator, which is accurate to a nanosecond, will be used to slam particles into each other to try to recreate the conditions at the beginning of time — as in the Big Bang.
Data from the collision, about 15 petabytes (1 petabyte is quadrillion bytes or 1,000 terabytes) a year will be studied around the world by some 100,000 computers across 50 countries. Within a year, the particle accelerator’s experiments will have spewed enough data to fill a pile of compact discs 12 miles high. India is part of the world-wide computational grid that will help analyse this data.
But the massive experiment is not without its share of controversy. Cynics believe that all the particle smashing will create a massive black hole, sucking life out of earth, if things don’t follow the planned script. However, Mr Roy adds: “The scientific community the world over is eagerly looking at the experiment. The claims of this experiment turning out to be a disaster are rather exaggerated and based on wrong calculations.”
Brusing aside fears of the experiment going wrong, geeks at CERN believe that they are going to find the so-called God-like particle dubbed Higgs Boson, which will offer clues about dark matter and other missing links of physics.
This, in turn, will accelerate our own understanding of life. If they don’t find that, they still hope to lay their hands on something exciting and worthwhile out of the tunnel. Much like one of CERN’s alumni, Tim Berners-Lee, stumbled upon the internet and invented the first web browser in 1989 to initially help physicists worldwide to swap notes!

Armed forces refuse to implement 6th Pay Commission for time being
Armed forces refuse to implement 6th Pay Commission for time being
By Khabrein.Info News Desk,
New Delhi, Sept 11, 2008: Armed forces have refused to implement 6th Pay Commission for the time being. They are disappointed for glaring anomalies in the sixth pay commission against the middle rung army officers viz a viz civilian officers.
They have already complained on the issue of discrimination against armed forces in the pay commission recommendations that came to vogue from this month to every official, from defence minister to Prime Minister. But the issue still remains far from being solved.
In an unprecedented move last week Navy chief who met prime minister Dr Manmohan Singh also complained on the issue and wanted the anomalies to be taken care of by the government.
The armed forces chiefs have said that the anomalies in pay structure of the officials of the armed forces when compared to civilian officer may adversely affect the morale of Forces.
The main grouse of the forces revolves around the fact that the ‘‘extant parity’’ of Lt-Colonel rank officers has been lowered by retaining them in Pay Band-3 (Rs 15,600-39,100), while raising similarly placed civilians and paramilitary officers to PB-4 (Rs 37,400-67,000). The forces have also sought restoration of parity in grade pay for lower and middle rung Service officers with their civilian counterparts, who are going to get more as per the new pay scales.
Lieutenant colonels make a large number of Army officers and their equivalent in Navy and Air Force. Reports say that the additional cost of placing such officers in the higher pay band will work out to Rs 230 crore annually.
The armed forces chiefs are worried that he anomalies in the pay structure of armed forces officials viz a viz civilian officials can deter many bright young men from joining the armed forces in the future.
Even now there is a big gap of officials in the armed forces and the gap is increasing. The sort of talent that the army requires at officers level can easily get several time higher pay package than they actually get in the armed forces in India.
On Friday Navy Chief Admiral Sureesh Mehta met Dr Manmohan Singh over perceived discrimination against the armed forces. It is unprecedented for the Indian military to take its campaign for better pay to the level of the Prime Minister.
In the eye of the storm brewing in the army on the issue of revision, the Finance Ministry had on Wednesday virtually rejected military's pay demands, and the three services chiefs had on Thursday said that issues raised by them should be addressed by the country's political leadership instead of the Anomalies Committee.
Former armed forces chief General (Rtd) NC Vij had criticized the original Sixth pay recommendations calling it inadequate. In a letter written to Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Sigh he had said, “ As a former chief, I feel morally duty-bound to bring this fact to the notice of the Hon'ble Prime Minister in my personal capacity. I take heart from the fact, that it is under your leadership, that, in my tenure, the government went for a major improvement in the 'operational posture by sanctioning South Western Command and 9 Corps HQs with full complements and also for some restoration of self esteem of the young officers through addressing their delayed promotions-cum-service conditions, by approving Part 1 of Ajay Vikram Singh Committee report'…If this had been followed up, through a balanced PCR and implementation of Part II of the 'AVS Report', things would have reasonably improved, but unfortunately the very opposite has happened.”
Stressing on the plight of army personnel he further said, “Sir, you yourself hail from a state, which has traditionally produced soldiers. You would have often wondered, as to why a supremely fit jawan/JCO who retires at the young age of 42-48, ages and grows old so fast. It is because he has no resources to fall back upon to ensure a decent living for his family after his early retirement. This problem gets further accentuated with the constraints of even poor farming conditions. Why should a soldier retire at this early age (other services serve upto 60 years) and why this man who has served the Nation so valiantly not be given a second career by way of 'lateral transfer', which alas will never come about”.
Air Chief Marshal Fali H. Major in a letter addressed to Chairman of the Chiefs of Staff Committee and the Indian Navy chief says, “The finance ministry is introducing yet another anomaly by lowering the extant of parities of officers of the armed forces, of the Lt. Col. (and equivalent), by retaining them in pay band-3, while raising similarly placed civilian and paramilitary officers to pay band-4”.
IAF chief added that “It is reliably learnt that civilian and paramilitary officers in the extant pay scales S-24 (Rs.14,300-400-18,300) and S-25 (Rs.15,100-400-18,300) will be placed in pay band-4, whereas the same is being denied to the armed forces officers (Lt. Col. and equivalent) who were already in S-25”.

Sixth Central Pay Commission: Diminished force
Sixth Central Pay Commission: Diminished force
The armed forces have communicated to Defence Minister AK Antony that they are “unwilling to implement” the Sixth Central Pay Commission (CPC) report without “anomalies” being removed to restore their status and parity of pay scales.
“A high-level delegation from the Chiefs of Staff Committee (CoSC) made a presentation to Mr Antony and top officials on anomalies, as introduced in the notified CPC report for officers, though it expressed satisfaction over the pay hikes for personnel below officer rank,” says a source in the defence ministry.
It was pointed out that the extant parities of lieutenant-colonels and their equivalents in the navy and air force were lowered by retaining them in pay band-3, while raising similarly placed civilian and paramilitary officers to pay band-4.
After witnessing the presentation, Mr Antony was quoted as assuring the CoSC that he would take up “the anomalies” with the government and get them addressed, sources said.
Raising objections to the sixth pay panel notification after the Cabinet cleared it on 14 August, the three chiefs of the armed forces, in an unprecedented move, had written to Mr Antony that implementation for officer ranks be “held in abeyance” until their objections are addressed. Earlier, they had raised two broad objections: higher salary for personnel below officer ranks and parity with civil servants for officer ranks. While thanking the government for hiking salaries of non-officer personnel, they claim the disparity has only increased between service officers and their civil service counterparts.
The main disparities pointed out are as under:
Disparity in Pay Bands: The chiefs claim the Committee of Secretaries (CoS) moved the director rank into pay band-4 but retained lieutenant-colonels and their equivalent in other services in pay band-3. Earlier, they claim, a lieutenant-colonel got the same pay as an IAS director and Rs 800 more than a non-IAS director. Now he will get Rs 14,000 less than an IAS director and Rs 11,000 less than a non-IAS director;
Disparity in grade pay: The CoS agreed to their demand to an increase in grade pay across middle-rank officers but also increased the grade pay of civil servants, thereby retaining disparity, the chiefs say. For example, the pay commission recommended Rs 6,600 for a civil servant equivalent to a major who was to get Rs 6,100. After review, a major will now get Rs 6,600 but his equivalent in the civil service will get Rs 7,600;
Restricting elite list: The new category of HAG-plus (higher administrative grade) includes all DGs and DGPs but only army commanders and their equivalents in other services, the chiefs complain. Their demand: all lieutenant-generals be included in this category.
The defence ministry is said to have replied that the objections are being looked into and a response will be given soon.
Despite the reservations of defence personnel about the pay commission awards, the finance ministry dashed their hopes, denying any “injustice” to the armed forces in the new pay structure.
“In no way are the defence personnel getting any lesser pay than their civilian counterparts. In fact, they will carry home fatter pay packets than civilian services and paramilitary under the new salary structures of the CPC,” a senior finance ministry official has said.
Citing the new feature of the military service pay in the CPC, officials said armed forces officers would uniformly get Rs 6,000 more, whereas such a pay was not offered to the civilians and the paramilitary. “Under the 5th CPC there was no compensation provided for the risk factor involved in the defence personnel’s job profile. Military service pay has taken care of that lacuna in the 6th CPC,” the official said.
Also, the military service pay would be counted along with the basic pay of armed forces officers for calculating armed forces’ dearness allowance (DA). “That would provide them with Rs 960 DA and the amount will increase as the DA is hiked,” the official added.
Additionally, defence officers posted in Siachen will get an allowance of Rs 14,000 and a high-altitude allowance of Rs 8,000, which adds up to a total of Rs 22,000. Under the 5th CPC, defence personnel were getting only Rs 7,000 as Siachen allowance and R 4,000 as high-altitude allowance, adding up to Rs 11,000.
Giving the example of entry-level officers in the rank of lieutenant and equivalent in navy and air force, officials said under the 5th pay commission in the pay scale of Rs 8,250-10,500, they received a salary totalling Rs 15,252 as of 31 December 2005. “On 1 January 2006, from when the 6th CPC will be effective, a lieutenant in pay band-3 will receive an additional grade pay of Rs 5,400 and military service pay of Rs 6,000, making his or her total emoluments Rs 27,000. As of September 1, 2008, when the 6th CPC was implemented, a lieutenant will get total emoluments of Rs 28,947,” an official said. Whereas, their civilian counterparts in the pay scale of Rs 8,000-13,500 under 5th CPC had received a pay of Rs 14,880. A lieutenant-colonel under the 5th CPC received a gross salary of Rs 28,086. But under the 6th CPC, he will receive a grade salary of Rs 7,600 and military service pay of Rs 6,000 under pay band-3. His pay as on 1 January 2006, from when 6th CPC is effective, will be Rs 41,690. From 1 September 2008, when the 6th CPC was implemented, this stands at Rs 45,000, officials said.
A day after the finance ministry virtually rejected the armed forces’ pay demands, the three services chiefs noted that issues raised by them should be addressed by the country’s political leadership instead of the anomalies committee.
Navy chief Admiral Sureesh Mehta, in his capacity as chairman, CoSC, also made a forceful plea that the CPC notification be “kept in abeyance” till the Cabinet considered the “core issues” and issued a correction to the notification. “The CPC-created disparities are not just pay anomalies but core issues. Hence, these cannot be left to the anomalies committee. But the Cabinet must consider them and issue a corrigendum to the CPC notification,” Admiral Mehta said, on behalf of all the three services chiefs, in a letter to Mr Antony.
He said the issues such as “extant parities of pay” to lieutenant-colonels and equivalent officers vis-Ã -vis their civilian and paramilitary counterparts was not just related to the CPC, but could seriously jeopardise “operational” and “functional” harmony of the defence forces whenever and wherever they worked alongside the civilian and paramilitary forces officers.
These issues, Admiral Mehta said had also “badly demoralised” the armed forces and if the issues persisted, they could lead to “despondency” among the defence cadre.
The Union Cabinet is likely to take up for approval the recommendations of the Sixth Central Pay Commission immediately. The suggestions made by a committee of secretaries ~ set up following widespread resentment, especially among the armed forces, over the recommendations ~ have been incorporated in the commission report. It has been reported that Prime Minister Manmohan Singh held a meeting on 4 September to discuss the report. It was attended by External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee, Mr Antony, Finance Minister P Chidambaram and Home Minister Shivraj Patil, besides the cabinet secretary and secretaries of relevant ministries.
The credit goes to Mr Antony, who is fully convinced of the disparities, so he favoured a hike for the officers and soldiers, over and above what was recommended in the pay panel report.
Let us hope that the Cabinet Committee on Security removes these disparities so that the soldiers do not get demoralised because demoralised forces cannot protect the sovereignty, security and integrity of the country.

The armed forces have communicated to Defence Minister AK Antony that they are “unwilling to implement” the Sixth Central Pay Commission (CPC) report without “anomalies” being removed to restore their status and parity of pay scales.
“A high-level delegation from the Chiefs of Staff Committee (CoSC) made a presentation to Mr Antony and top officials on anomalies, as introduced in the notified CPC report for officers, though it expressed satisfaction over the pay hikes for personnel below officer rank,” says a source in the defence ministry.
It was pointed out that the extant parities of lieutenant-colonels and their equivalents in the navy and air force were lowered by retaining them in pay band-3, while raising similarly placed civilian and paramilitary officers to pay band-4.
After witnessing the presentation, Mr Antony was quoted as assuring the CoSC that he would take up “the anomalies” with the government and get them addressed, sources said.
Raising objections to the sixth pay panel notification after the Cabinet cleared it on 14 August, the three chiefs of the armed forces, in an unprecedented move, had written to Mr Antony that implementation for officer ranks be “held in abeyance” until their objections are addressed. Earlier, they had raised two broad objections: higher salary for personnel below officer ranks and parity with civil servants for officer ranks. While thanking the government for hiking salaries of non-officer personnel, they claim the disparity has only increased between service officers and their civil service counterparts.
The main disparities pointed out are as under:
Disparity in Pay Bands: The chiefs claim the Committee of Secretaries (CoS) moved the director rank into pay band-4 but retained lieutenant-colonels and their equivalent in other services in pay band-3. Earlier, they claim, a lieutenant-colonel got the same pay as an IAS director and Rs 800 more than a non-IAS director. Now he will get Rs 14,000 less than an IAS director and Rs 11,000 less than a non-IAS director;
Disparity in grade pay: The CoS agreed to their demand to an increase in grade pay across middle-rank officers but also increased the grade pay of civil servants, thereby retaining disparity, the chiefs say. For example, the pay commission recommended Rs 6,600 for a civil servant equivalent to a major who was to get Rs 6,100. After review, a major will now get Rs 6,600 but his equivalent in the civil service will get Rs 7,600;
Restricting elite list: The new category of HAG-plus (higher administrative grade) includes all DGs and DGPs but only army commanders and their equivalents in other services, the chiefs complain. Their demand: all lieutenant-generals be included in this category.
The defence ministry is said to have replied that the objections are being looked into and a response will be given soon.
Despite the reservations of defence personnel about the pay commission awards, the finance ministry dashed their hopes, denying any “injustice” to the armed forces in the new pay structure.
“In no way are the defence personnel getting any lesser pay than their civilian counterparts. In fact, they will carry home fatter pay packets than civilian services and paramilitary under the new salary structures of the CPC,” a senior finance ministry official has said.
Citing the new feature of the military service pay in the CPC, officials said armed forces officers would uniformly get Rs 6,000 more, whereas such a pay was not offered to the civilians and the paramilitary. “Under the 5th CPC there was no compensation provided for the risk factor involved in the defence personnel’s job profile. Military service pay has taken care of that lacuna in the 6th CPC,” the official said.
Also, the military service pay would be counted along with the basic pay of armed forces officers for calculating armed forces’ dearness allowance (DA). “That would provide them with Rs 960 DA and the amount will increase as the DA is hiked,” the official added.
Additionally, defence officers posted in Siachen will get an allowance of Rs 14,000 and a high-altitude allowance of Rs 8,000, which adds up to a total of Rs 22,000. Under the 5th CPC, defence personnel were getting only Rs 7,000 as Siachen allowance and R 4,000 as high-altitude allowance, adding up to Rs 11,000.
Giving the example of entry-level officers in the rank of lieutenant and equivalent in navy and air force, officials said under the 5th pay commission in the pay scale of Rs 8,250-10,500, they received a salary totalling Rs 15,252 as of 31 December 2005. “On 1 January 2006, from when the 6th CPC will be effective, a lieutenant in pay band-3 will receive an additional grade pay of Rs 5,400 and military service pay of Rs 6,000, making his or her total emoluments Rs 27,000. As of September 1, 2008, when the 6th CPC was implemented, a lieutenant will get total emoluments of Rs 28,947,” an official said. Whereas, their civilian counterparts in the pay scale of Rs 8,000-13,500 under 5th CPC had received a pay of Rs 14,880. A lieutenant-colonel under the 5th CPC received a gross salary of Rs 28,086. But under the 6th CPC, he will receive a grade salary of Rs 7,600 and military service pay of Rs 6,000 under pay band-3. His pay as on 1 January 2006, from when 6th CPC is effective, will be Rs 41,690. From 1 September 2008, when the 6th CPC was implemented, this stands at Rs 45,000, officials said.

6th Pay Commission: Pensioners voice their anger against disparities
6th Pay Commission: Pensioners voice their anger against disparities
Khabrien.Info News Desk,
New Delhi, Sept 10, 2008: Central Government pensioners have been voicing their anger against disparities in the 6th Pay Commission recommendation as well as actual notification issued by central government. They feel that they have been cheated both by the government and the Sixth Pay Commission.
Union Government accepted Sixth Pay Commission recommendations on 14th August and issued notification two weeks later.
Central government pensioners seem to be totally dissatisfied with the implementation due to disparities and anomalies in 6th Pay Commission and they have been voicing their anger and frustration openly.
Given their limitation, they are retired people and cannot come on the streets to take on the government, they are letting their anger known by writing to different media houses, newspapers, magazines and portal. Here we present the aggrieved views of the central government pensioners:
WG.CDR.V.SUNDARESAN(RETD)
Defence pensioners are denied the benefit which Maj. Dhanapalan achieved after fighting a prolonged legal battle. But the pity is govt. has not rectified their mistake to other officers similarly placed and suffering silently. At some time or other, the govt must rectify their mistakes in pension to pre-1996 pensioners. Otherwise it would be a thankless govt. and cpc.
VK Bhasin
The new paybands is detrimental to pensioners as many posts/scales have been fitted into one common payband with grade pay which is virtually broad persons with higher grade into lower pension range as earlier payscales were distinct narrow and while fixation of pension , even starting of scale was not affecting the pension of employees so widely.
Now with wider band, the senior grade officers pension will suffer so badly. However, officers of additional secy and above have for this purpose carved off as HAG+ grade with a miniumum of RS 75500/ starting pay getting them of assured pension of 37750/- while next lower grade officer get a pension of Rs 37000+12000 divide by 2ie 24500/- . Earlier the difference in pension was on less than 5 % which is now 50%. In fact pay commission has devised to affect systematically the pension of all ranks except secy and additional secy. bad work.
Government must devise minimum pension in same proportion as per earlier ratos.

This injustice between pre-2006 and post-2006 appears to be more glaring in PB4. This is due to faulty interpretation of Para 4.2 of pre-2006 pensioners' OM.
'The minimum of pay in PB plus gde pay corresponding to pre-revised scale of the retiree' should be interpreted as min of pay in PB corresponding to pre-revised scale plus gde pay corresponding to pre revised scale.
Instead it is unjustly being interpreted as min of Payband plus only grade pay corresponding to pre-revised scale.
For S-29 scale this wrong reading means (37600+10000)/2 =23700 as the min limit instead of (44700+10000)/2 =27350.
Thus leading to a loss of 3650 in pension for pre-2006 pensioners.
Hope the authorities clarify and make correct interpretaion so that this anomaly is immediately removed. Otherwise this is bound to lead to totally avoidable litigations.

The condition of ex- servicemen is much worse. To cite an example a sergeant of technical group retired from Air force after 15 years of service draws a basic pension of 1892+ 946 DP +47% OF 2838 as DR toalling R.4172 as on 1.9.2008 and the same will be revised to Rs. 4962. However a sergeant of tech. group retiring now after 15 years of service will get a total pension of RS.7830. Similarly the civilian employees who are in the pay scale of 5000- equivalent to the pay scale of sergeant will also receive Rs.7830 as pension. In the bargain the similarly placed defence pensioners like me will lose 2888 per month.
Is this the CONCEPT OF ONE-RANK- ONE PENSION!?
K.V.Ramana Murty
It is not correct to say that those who retired after 1-1-2006 are getting 50 percent of their last pay drawn as pension. According to the O.M. dated 2-9-2006, para 5.2. and 5.3 of these orders are only prospectively effective from the date of issue of the order. i.e. 2-9-2008. Those who retired between 1-1-2006 and 1-9-2008 are entitled to pension based on their 10 months average emoluments and length of service as per old rules. The position of those retiring within 10 months from 1-1-2006 is still worse. Their average pay includes old basic pay+D.P+24% D.A. for certrain months plus revised pay after 1-1-2006 to the date of retirement. They are neithe coming under the fitment formula of pre- 1-1-2006 for getting the fitment of 40% of basic pension nor coming under the new scheme to get grade pay for all the months for fixation of pension based on average emoluments. All most all such employees retired within 10 months from 1-1-2006 are losing in their pension compared to the pension fixed under pre-revised scales.

Why disparity with employees of PSU so for as equal pension for equal pay is concerned, This principal has been accepted by the pay commission. It seems the managements of these PSU are waiting for the retired employees to go to courts and get the awards. Let the managements of these PSU such as GIC, LIC and its subsidiaries accept the same and follow the recommendation of the pay commission.

6th pay Commission: Court could give respite to PBOR pensioners
6th pay Commission: Court could give respite to PBOR pensioners
Khabrein.Info News Desk,
Chandigarh, Sept 10, 2008: Punjab and Haryana High Court bench could give some respite to PBOR pensioners. As 6ht Pay
Commission is being implemented the court order will help thousands of army personnel below the rank of officer (PBORs) to
get improved pensions from January 1996.
PBORs have always complained that they are not done justice with their wages despite the fact that they are the ones who
sacrifice their lives for the sake of their country.
PBORs have also taken a dig at armed forces chiefs who have been talking for the benefit of the officers in the armed forces,
while neglecting the PBORs.
Five petitions were filed in Punjab and Haryana High Court by All India Ex-servicemen Welfare Association pleading the
entitlement to the improved pension from January 1, 1996, the day of implementation of the Fifth Central Pay Commission,
instead of Jan 1, 2006.
The court now holds hope for thousands of PBORs who were deprived of their arrears while their officers were given hefty
arrears. PBORs were not at all benefited, whereas the commissioned officers were benefited to a large extent and were given
huge arrears from January 1, 1996, whereas the PBORs were left high and dry as formula adopted for fixation of pension
resulted in downward trend.
PBORs have complained of discrimination for quite some time.
1. Parity in pension of the pre and post 1-1-1996 retirees and natural justice to the pre and post 1-1-1986 pensioners by
the v central pay Commission and the then central government! The main demand of the Past Pensioners [Retired before
1-1-1986] was for full parity in pension to those who retired during the period from 1.1.1986 onwards. The V CPC in Para
137.13 (PP 1830) had observed as under:-
"While it is desirable to grant complete parity in pension to all Past Pensioners irrespective of the date of their
retirement, this may not be feasible straightaway as the financial implications would be considerable. The process of
bridging the gap in pension of Past Pensioners (Pre 1986 Pensioners) has already been set in motion by the Fourth CPC when
past Pensioners were granted additional relief in addition to consolidation of their pension. This process of attainment of-
reasonable parity needs to be commuted so as to achieve complete parity over a period of time."
In Paras 137.13 and .14 of their Report the V CPC stated that as follow-up of our basic objective of parity, we would
recommend that pension of all the Pre 1986 Retirees may be updated by notional fixation of their pay as on 1.1.86 by adopting
the same formula as for the serving Employees. This step would bring all the Past Pensioners to a common platform or on the
IV CPC pay scales as on 1.1.86.
Thereafter, all these Pre 1986 Pensioners can be treated alike in regard to consolidation of their pension as on 1.1.96 by
allowing the same fitment weightage as may be allowed to the serving Employees. The Recommendation of the V Central Pay
Commission in making Parity in Pension of Pre and Post 1-1-1996 Retirees and Revising the pension of Pre and Post 1-1-1986
Retirees suitably was accepted and implemented by the then Central Government with effect from 1-1-1996. Had not both the V
Central Pay Commission and the then Central Government had done JUSTICE to the Pre and Post 1-1-1986 Pensioners!
2. DISPARITY IN PENSION BETWEEN THE PRE AND POST 1-1-2006 RETIREES AND INJUSTICE TO THE PRE 1-1-2006 PENSIONERS BY THE VI
CENTRAL PAY COMMISSION!
The Disparity in Pension between the Pre and Post 1-1-2006 Retirees and the injustice done by the VI Central Pay Commission
and the Central Government to the Post 1-1-1996 and Pre 1-1-2006 Pensioners can be clearly understood by the following
facts.
A. Fixation of Revised Pay and Pension in respect of Four Post 1-1-2006 Retirees is given below as per OM FN01/1/2008-IC
dt.30-8-2008 and OM FN038/37/08P&PW[A] dt.2-9-2008 of Ministry of Finance,Govt of India.
a.Pre Revised Scale:5500-175-9000 [S10]
Corresponding Revised Scale:9300-34800+Grade Pay Rs4200 [PB2]
i.Basic Pay:Rs 5500.
Revised Pay: Rs 14430 [10230+4200]
Pension:Rs 7215[50% of Pay]
ii.Basic Pay:Rs.6550.
Revised Pay:Rs16390[12190+4200]
Pension:Rs 8195[50%of Pay].
b.Pre Revised Scale:10000-325-15200 [S19]
Corresponding Revised Scale:15600-39100+
Grade Pay Rs 6600[PB3]
i.Basic Pay:Rs 10000.
Revised Pay:Rs25200 [18600+6600]
Pension:Rs12600[50% of Pay]
ii.Basic Pay:Rs.11950.
Revised Pay:28830 [22230+6600]
Pension;Rs14415 [50% of Pay]
B.Fixation of Revised Pension of Pre 1-1-2006 Retirees by the VI Central Pay Commission as per Memorahdum FNO 38/37/08-P&PW
[A] dt 1-9-2008 of the Ministry of Finance,Government of India
The formula fixed by the VI Pay Commission for arriving at the Revised Pension is as follows.
Basic Pay without DP x1.86+40% of the Basic Pay.The Condition is that the Revised Pension should not be less than 50% of the
minimum of the Corresponding Revised Scale+Grade Pay.
This Formula could be applied only to Pre 1-1-1996 Retirees.But the Condition that the Revised Pension should not be less
than 50% of the minimum of the Revised Pay and Grade Pay cannot be applied to them since they are not covered by the Pay
Scales effective from 1-1-1996. So,the Pay Commission has really intended to apply this formula only to Employees retired
from 2-1-1996 to 31-12-2005.
According to the Pay Commission, we are to find out the Corresponding Pay in the Revised Scale by adding the Grade Pay.After
finding out the Corresponding Pay,we have to work out 50% of the Revised Pay which will be the Revised Pension effective from
1-1-2006. But the Condition has been wronly worded as 'The Revised Pension shoud not be less than 50% of the minimum of the
Revised Scale+Grade Pay instead of 'The Revised Pension should not be less than 50% of the Revised Pay + Grade Pay' So,the
Condition has to be modified suitably.
Here, two illustrations are given in respect of Revision of Pension of Four Pre 1-1-2006 Retirees.
1.Basic Pay: Rs 5500.
Pension:Rs. 6215 [2750 [50% of Basic Pay]x1.86+40% of Rs2750]
2.Basic Pay:Rs 6550.
Pension:Rs.7403 [3275[50% of Basic Pay]x1.86+40% of Rs3275]
3.Basic Pay: Rs 10000.
Pension:Rs11300 [5000 [50%of Basic Pay[x1.86+40% of Rs5000]
4.Basic Pay Rs 11950.
Pension:Rs13505.[5975 [50%of Basic Pay]x1.86+40% of Rs 5975]
According to the formula of the Pay Commission, a Pensioner drawing a Basic Pay of Rs 6550 in the Scale of Rs
5500-175-9000[S10] will get only 50% of the minimum of the Revised Scale[Rs 9300-34800-PB 2]+Grade Pay of Rs4200 viz,Rs 7215
and not Rs 8195[Revised for Post 1-1-2006 Pensioner] as Pension!
Similarly,a Pensioner drawing a Basic Pay of Rs 11950 in the Scale of Rs.10000-325-15200 [S19] will get only 50% of the
minimum of theRevised Scale [Rs 15600-39100-PB 3]+Grade Pay of Rs 6600 viz,Rs 12600 and not 14415 [Revised for Post 1-1-2006
Pensioner]as Pension! Why the Pay Commission and the Central Govt have done injustice by applying double standards to the Pre
and Post 1-1-2006 Pensioners who belong to the very same Pay Band?
Will not the following variations affect the Pre 1-1-2006 Pensioners permanently?
Basic Pay Rs.5500: Post 1-1-2006 Pensioner will get Rs1000 more per month besides DA!
Basic Pay Rs 6550:Post 1-1-2006 Pensioner will get Rs 792 more per month besides DA!
Basic Pay Rs 10000: Post 1-1-2006 Pensioner will get Rs 1300 more besides DA!
Basic Pay Rs 11950: Post 1-1-2006 Pensioner will get Rs 910 more besides DA!
CONCLUSION
Is this wide variation between the pensions in the cases of Pre and Post 1-1-2006 Retirees with effect from 1-1-2006 even
though they belong to the same Pay Band not against Natural Justice?
Will the Central Government immediately look into this Disparity, do JUSTICE to the Pensioners who retired from 2-1-1996 to
31-12-2005 and issue orders bringing PARITY in Pension of both the Pre and Post 1-1-2006 Pensioners as they belong to the
same Pay Band?

Five petitions were filed in Punjab and Haryana High Court by All India Ex-servicemen Welfare Association pleading the
entitlement to the improved pension from January 1, 1996, the day of implementation of the Fifth Central Pay Commission,
instead of Jan 1, 2006.
The court now holds hope for thousands of PBORs who were deprived of their arrears while their officers were given hefty
arrears. PBORs were not at all benefited, whereas the commissioned officers were benefited to a large extent and were given
huge arrears from January 1, 1996, whereas the PBORs were left high and dry as formula adopted for fixation of pension
resulted in downward trend.
PBORs have complained of discrimination for quite some time.
1. Parity in pension of the pre and post 1-1-1996 retirees and natural justice to the pre and post 1-1-1986 pensioners by
the v central pay Commission and the then central government! The main demand of the Past Pensioners [Retired before
1-1-1986] was for full parity in pension to those who retired during the period from 1.1.1986 onwards. The V CPC in Para
137.13 (PP 1830) had observed as under:-
"While it is desirable to grant complete parity in pension to all Past Pensioners irrespective of the date of their
retirement, this may not be feasible straightaway as the financial implications would be considerable. The process of
bridging the gap in pension of Past Pensioners (Pre 1986 Pensioners) has already been set in motion by the Fourth CPC when
past Pensioners were granted additional relief in addition to consolidation of their pension. This process of attainment of-
reasonable parity needs to be commuted so as to achieve complete parity over a period of time."
In Paras 137.13 and .14 of their Report the V CPC stated that as follow-up of our basic objective of parity, we would
recommend that pension of all the Pre 1986 Retirees may be updated by notional fixation of their pay as on 1.1.86 by adopting
the same formula as for the serving Employees. This step would bring all the Past Pensioners to a common platform or on the
IV CPC pay scales as on 1.1.86.
Thereafter, all these Pre 1986 Pensioners can be treated alike in regard to consolidation of their pension as on 1.1.96 by
allowing the same fitment weightage as may be allowed to the serving Employees. The Recommendation of the V Central Pay
Commission in making Parity in Pension of Pre and Post 1-1-1996 Retirees and Revising the pension of Pre and Post 1-1-1986
Retirees suitably was accepted and implemented by the then Central Government with effect from 1-1-1996. Had not both the V
Central Pay Commission and the then Central Government had done JUSTICE to the Pre and Post 1-1-1986 Pensioners!
2. DISPARITY IN PENSION BETWEEN THE PRE AND POST 1-1-2006 RETIREES AND INJUSTICE TO THE PRE 1-1-2006 PENSIONERS BY THE VI
CENTRAL PAY COMMISSION!
The Disparity in Pension between the Pre and Post 1-1-2006 Retirees and the injustice done by the VI Central Pay Commission
and the Central Government to the Post 1-1-1996 and Pre 1-1-2006 Pensioners can be clearly understood by the following
facts.
A. Fixation of Revised Pay and Pension in respect of Four Post 1-1-2006 Retirees is given below as per OM FN01/1/2008-IC
dt.30-8-2008 and OM FN038/37/08P&PW[A] dt.2-9-2008 of Ministry of Finance,Govt of India.
a.Pre Revised Scale:5500-175-9000 [S10]
Corresponding Revised Scale:9300-34800+Grade Pay Rs4200 [PB2]
i.Basic Pay:Rs 5500.
Revised Pay: Rs 14430 [10230+4200]
Pension:Rs 7215[50% of Pay]
ii.Basic Pay:Rs.6550.
Revised Pay:Rs16390[12190+4200]
Pension:Rs 8195[50%of Pay].
b.Pre Revised Scale:10000-325-15200 [S19]
Corresponding Revised Scale:15600-39100+
Grade Pay Rs 6600[PB3]
i.Basic Pay:Rs 10000.
Revised Pay:Rs25200 [18600+6600]
Pension:Rs12600[50% of Pay]
ii.Basic Pay:Rs.11950.
Revised Pay:28830 [22230+6600]
Pension;Rs14415 [50% of Pay]
B.Fixation of Revised Pension of Pre 1-1-2006 Retirees by the VI Central Pay Commission as per Memorahdum FNO 38/37/08-P&PW
[A] dt 1-9-2008 of the Ministry of Finance,Government of India
The formula fixed by the VI Pay Commission for arriving at the Revised Pension is as follows.
Basic Pay without DP x1.86+40% of the Basic Pay.The Condition is that the Revised Pension should not be less than 50% of the
minimum of the Corresponding Revised Scale+Grade Pay.
This Formula could be applied only to Pre 1-1-1996 Retirees.But the Condition that the Revised Pension should not be less
than 50% of the minimum of the Revised Pay and Grade Pay cannot be applied to them since they are not covered by the Pay
Scales effective from 1-1-1996. So,the Pay Commission has really intended to apply this formula only to Employees retired
from 2-1-1996 to 31-12-2005.
According to the Pay Commission, we are to find out the Corresponding Pay in the Revised Scale by adding the Grade Pay.After
finding out the Corresponding Pay,we have to work out 50% of the Revised Pay which will be the Revised Pension effective from
1-1-2006. But the Condition has been wronly worded as 'The Revised Pension shoud not be less than 50% of the minimum of the
Revised Scale+Grade Pay instead of 'The Revised Pension should not be less than 50% of the Revised Pay + Grade Pay' So,the
Condition has to be modified suitably.
Here, two illustrations are given in respect of Revision of Pension of Four Pre 1-1-2006 Retirees.
1.Basic Pay: Rs 5500.
Pension:Rs. 6215 [2750 [50% of Basic Pay]x1.86+40% of Rs2750]
2.Basic Pay:Rs 6550.
Pension:Rs.7403 [3275[50% of Basic Pay]x1.86+40% of Rs3275]
3.Basic Pay: Rs 10000.
Pension:Rs11300 [5000 [50%of Basic Pay[x1.86+40% of Rs5000]
4.Basic Pay Rs 11950.
Pension:Rs13505.[5975 [50%of Basic Pay]x1.86+40% of Rs 5975]
According to the formula of the Pay Commission, a Pensioner drawing a Basic Pay of Rs 6550 in the Scale of Rs
5500-175-9000[S10] will get only 50% of the minimum of the Revised Scale[Rs 9300-34800-PB 2]+Grade Pay of Rs4200 viz,Rs 7215
and not Rs 8195[Revised for Post 1-1-2006 Pensioner] as Pension!
Similarly,a Pensioner drawing a Basic Pay of Rs 11950 in the Scale of Rs.10000-325-15200 [S19] will get only 50% of the
minimum of theRevised Scale [Rs 15600-39100-PB 3]+Grade Pay of Rs 6600 viz,Rs 12600 and not 14415 [Revised for Post 1-1-2006
Pensioner]as Pension! Why the Pay Commission and the Central Govt have done injustice by applying double standards to the Pre
and Post 1-1-2006 Pensioners who belong to the very same Pay Band?
Will not the following variations affect the Pre 1-1-2006 Pensioners permanently?
Basic Pay Rs.5500: Post 1-1-2006 Pensioner will get Rs1000 more per month besides DA!
Basic Pay Rs 6550:Post 1-1-2006 Pensioner will get Rs 792 more per month besides DA!
Basic Pay Rs 10000: Post 1-1-2006 Pensioner will get Rs 1300 more besides DA!
Basic Pay Rs 11950: Post 1-1-2006 Pensioner will get Rs 910 more besides DA!
CONCLUSION
Is this wide variation between the pensions in the cases of Pre and Post 1-1-2006 Retirees with effect from 1-1-2006 even
though they belong to the same Pay Band not against Natural Justice?
Will the Central Government immediately look into this Disparity, do JUSTICE to the Pensioners who retired from 2-1-1996 to
31-12-2005 and issue orders bringing PARITY in Pension of both the Pre and Post 1-1-2006 Pensioners as they belong to the
same Pay Band?

Sixth Pay Commission: Forces delay pay panel award in protest
Forces delay pay panel award in protest
Siddharth Zarabi / New Delhi September 10, 2008, 0:39 IST
They want their middle-rung officers to be moved to a higher pay band.
Angry over what they describe as a deliberate attempt by the bureaucracy to erode the parity of the crucial middle-rung officers — army lieutenant colonels and their equivalents in the air force and the navy — with the civil servants, the three defence services have not implemented the new central pay rules, notified on August 30, till date.
The three services want the implementation of the armed forces pay resolution to be held in abeyance till the issues raised by them are addressed. The key demand is to move these officers to pay band ‘four’ (Rs 37,400-67,000) from the lower pay band ‘three’ (Rs 15,600-39,100). They also want the grade pay, which has been pegged at Rs 7,600, to be hiked in line with the higher pay band.
Serving defence staffers, say lieutenant colonels and their equivalents, account for around 14,000 officers, or 25 per cent of the officer strength of the defence services. They have pointed out that the additional cost of placing such officers in the higher pay band will work out to Rs 230 crore annually. According to the Union Cabinet’s decision on August 14, the annualised impact of the new pay structure on the Centre (excluding the railways) is estimated at Rs 17,798 crore, an increase of over Rs 5,237 crore over the original Sixth Pay Commission award.
The defence services have pointed out that four successive pay commissions, including the recent one, had placed lieutenant colonels on a par with directors from the Indian Administrative Service. Expressing surprise at the decision of the committee of secretaries, which reviewed the Sixth Pay Commission report to change the award, the services have said that the civil officers of ‘group A’ services and the central paramilitary forces have also been placed in the higher pay band.
The armed forces fear that unless the anomalies are addressed, the trend of officers opting out of service will not end. They contend that the existing parities between the armed forces and the paramilitary forces have also been reversed, leading to conflict. They also fear that the officers’ morale will flag and the operational effectiveness of the forces in internal
security will be adversely affected.
Last week, finance ministry officials had said that the services’ claim of functional relativities at all levels being altered to the detriment of the armed forces officers who worked along their civilian counterparts was incorrect. They added that the defence officers had been granted a military service pay of Rs 6,000, which when added to facilities like subsidised goods from the Canteen Stores Department and rations should be taken into account to consider the overall compensation.
Soon after the new pay rules were notified late on August 30, the chairman of the chiefs of staff committee, Navy Admiral Sureesh Mehta, briefed Defence Minister AK Antony about the matter. He is also learnt to have briefed Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on September 5.

Natasha Bedingfield to wed
Natasha Bedingfield to wed
Natasha Bedingfield has announced that she and boyfriend Matthew Robinson have got engaged.
"I'm the luckiest girl in the world," she told People magazine at a party during New York Fashion Week.
"It just happened," the singer/songwriter gushed, showing off a huge diamond ring. "But I am so excited, and it happened in New York. And I want to share it with the world."
The 26-year-old, who has been going out with her American boyfriend for two years, said they haven't yet made any further plans.
"We haven't thought about a date. We're just celebrating," she said.
Natasha recently spoke about her relationship with Matthew in a magazine interview: "He's a businessman and it really is a good balance for my career because he's always a solid rock that I just feel very comfortable with."
"And I feel very loved," she told Us. "I was single for a long, long time and I kind of went down kicking and screaming because I liked my single-ness, but he was someone definitely worth giving up being single for."
It's been a busy week for Natasha. She was one of several A-list celebrities - including Beyoncé Knowles and Mariah Carey - who teamed up to sing 'Just Stand Up' as part of Friday's Fashion Rocks benefit gig to raise money for cancer research.
