The Office Bearers and CEC Members
Bharatiya Pratiraksha Mazdoor Sangh &
The President/ General Secretary
Unions affiliated to the federation

Subject: One day Agitational Programme on 24.04.2018 on Minimum Guaranteed Pension under National Pension System (NPS).

Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Sadar Namaskar
It is hoped that all of you are well and busy in accelerating trade union activities. As all of you know that the Central Executive Committee Meeting of this federation was held on 26, 27 and 28 March 2018 in Dehu Road, Pune where it was decided to hold one day agitational programme on 24.04.2018 on Minimum Guaranteed Pension under National Pension System (NPS).

A resolution to this effect was also passed in the CEC Meeting held at Hyderabad during September 2015 and subsequently several correspondence were made. However, in spite of lapse of such a large time, no tangible action has been seen from the Govt side on the issue.
Therefore, in absence of any concrete step from the Govt side on the issue it becomes necessary to register our displeasure over the lethargic attitude of the Government and register our protest to constrain the machinery to redress the Grievance.

Hence, you are requested to hold one day agitation programme on 24.04.2018 using all feasible and effective trade union instruments like Gate Meeting, Use of Black Badges, Slogan Shouting, publicizing of programme at humongous level through posters/ hoardings/ banners/ pamphlets/ social media so that the issue may be resolved at the earliest. Further, you are requested to submit a memorandum addressed to Prime Minister of India through proper channel on 24.04.2018.

With regards,
Brotherly yours
S/d,
(M P Singh)
General Secretary

OFFICE MEMORANDUM
Sub: Maximum age limit in case of appointment by deputation/deputation (including short term  contract).

The undersigned is directed to refer to this Department's 0M No.AB-14017/48/92-Estt (RR) dated 17th November, 1992 on the subject mentioned above. The Recruitment Rules in respect of a number of posts provide for appointment by the method or deputation/deputation (including short term contract). As per existing instructions, the maximum age limit for appointment on deputation/deputation (including short term contract) is 'not exceeding fifty six years' on the closing date of receipt application. In recent past, this Department has received several requests for revision the maximum age limit for appointment on deputation\deputation (including short term contract) basis.

2. The matter has, therefore, been examined in consultation with the Union Public Service Commission. Keeping in view the fact that gaining experience in analogous posts at SAG and above levels take time, the limited number officers available at these levels and to tap the talent/service of officers who have rich domain experience, it has been decided that the following age limit Shall be prescribed for appointment on deputation/deputation (including short term contract) basis:-
(i) For posts in the SAG level and above (i.e.14 Level-14 of the Pay Matrix and above):-
'Not exceeding fifty eight years' on the closing date of receipt of application.
(ii) For posts below the SAG level (below level-14 of the Pay Matrix):-
'Not exceeding fifty six years' on the closing date of receipt of application.
3. Administrative Ministries are requested to take necessary action for amendment of Recruitment Rules/Service Rules to incorporate the revised age limit for deputation/deputation (Including short term contract) for posts of the level of SAG and above.
