\nHe was chairing a meeting with the senior officers of important Ministries and AGPR for implementing the recommendations of Pension Committee for redressal of hundreds of complaints regarding delay in payment of pension.
\nEarlier on, a committee of Wafaqi Mohtasib had submitted a comprehensive report to improve the pension system whose recommendations are not being implemented fully.
\nThe Wafaqi Mohtasib stressed on the heads of institutions that they should personally monitor the work of the responsible officers and staff in dealing with pension complaints and ensure immediate implementation of decisions of the Wafaqi Mohtasib.
\nDuring the meeting he remarked that low paid employees are like our children and there should be no delay in issuance of their pension because they cannot meet their household expenses without pension. He said that the Monitoring Committee will submit a report within six weeks after meeting the senior officers of such organizations against whom there are more complaints.
\nHe added that pension is the right of Government servants and legal action will be taken for any delay, carelessness and non-implementation of orders of the Wafaqi Mohtasib.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
