The order from Hon HC Ernakulum and subsequent dismissal of SLP filed by EPFO at Hon SC, now opened a path to claim Full Pension option as required by the members. This association had been continuously following the progress of the same almost from the starting point.
Kerala Team were directly party to the case through Individual applicants. The dismissal of EPFO SLP from Hon SC now should pave way for generalization of the direction and this association is committed to pursue our level best to ensure this through, CPFC, New Delhi. In case the same is not generalized, then we are bound to follow the legal suit as deemed fit.
In the Meantime, members who are willing to shift to higher pension option should give their representations to their respective DDOs and ensure that the same is forwarded to concerned EPFO. The implementation of the order at various establishments and for individuals who were already party for the HC/SC legal suits also supposed to makes an easy walk to get the full pension option implementation as a whole. This association is actively looking for this option also to ensure the option a reality. Circle Secretaries should ensure that the representations of members are suitably processed.
