Suvigya software-hosted vsf web

For in formation of Defence Pensioners

Government of India has taken a number of decisions to improve the benefits of defence pensioners. The most recent improvements are implementation of the 6th Central Pay Commission Report and further improvements as per Cabinet Secretary Committee’s Report.

2. In order to enable Defence pensioners to know their correct entitlement as a result of various Govt. orders, the Controller General of Defence Accounts (CGDA) has developed a software called “Suvigya”. This software requires some minimum inputs to be provided about the pensioner (e.g. date of discharge! retirement, rank / group, qualifying service, date of birth, initial pension etc.). On the basis of this information, “Suvigya” shows the changes in pension as a result of different revisions and the latest pension entitlements. The software also provides for taking print-out of the result.

3. “Suvigya” software has been installed in the offices of Rajya I Zila Sainik Boards and Defence Pension Disbursement Offices (DPDOs) in a phased manner. Defence pensioners can approach any of these offices (irrespective of where they reside or the agency from which they draw their pension) to know their correct entitlements through “Suvigya”. In case they are not being paid their pension as per entitlement, they may take up the matter with their Pension Disbursing Agencies

Subject: Revision of Pension and family pension of pre-2006 cases

Sir,

As you are aware, the Department of Pension & Pensioners’ Welfare vide its O.M. dated 1.9.2008 had issued instructions authorizing all pension disbursing authority, including Public Sector Banks handling disbursement of pension, to pay pension /family pensioner at the consolidated rates as per the provisions of Para 4.1. of O.M. ibid, without any further authorization from the concerned Accounts Officers/Head of Office etc. These pensioner disbursing authorities (i.e. Banks etc.) were also required to give an intimation of disbursement of revised pension/family pension in the given format to the Central Pension Accounting Office (CPAO) and the Accounts Officers concerned which had issued the PPO to enable the latter to update the PPO register maintained by him.

2. However due to lackadaisical attitude of the Banks in this regard the task of revision of pension /family pension of pre-2006 pensioners as per the recommendations of the 6th Central Pay Commission has not been completed till date.

3. All the Central Government Pensioner’s Association are therefore requested to brought in the notice of Pensioner/family pensioner to furnish the following information to the Head of Office of their parent Ministry/Department from where pensioner retired, to facilitate the revision of pension with full benefits:

1) Date of Birth of Pensioner /Family Pensioner (should be supported by copies of CGHS Card/Pan Card/Voter ID/Passport /Driving License /Matriculation Certificate).

2) Present full mailing address with Pin Code and phone number/E-mail ID

3) Current Pension Account Number and address of the Paying Branch along with BSR code of the Branch.

4) Any other relevant documents available with them.
