No plan to increase Central Govt Employees’ Retirement age: Zee News
A hot news is coming from Zee News that DoPT has not been working on any proposal to increase the retirement age to 62 from 60 years for Central Government Employees. A senior official from DoPT has confirmed the above news to media and also clarified that a committee has been formed for increase the retirement age of specialists in scientific and medical fields (scientists) to 64 years. Last updates from parliament question session is also indicating that there is no proposal under consideration in this regard.
The news article of Zee News, which is showing updation time of 13.28 of 16th June, it means it is very latest news in this regard, the text of the said news is reproduced below:-
New Delhi: Central government employees are in for a disappointment as the Centre is at present not considering any move to raise the retirement age to 62 years.
A senior official in the Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions, which acts as nodal department for personnel matters, said there was no such proposal to increase the age for superannuation of government employees.
"There is no proposal to increase the retirement age to 62 from 60 years. The Ministry is not working on any such proposal," the official said.
Recent media reports claimed that the Ministry has written to Prime Minister's Office for raising the retirement age and sought the Union Cabinet's nod for the purpose.
There are about 50 lakh central government employees working in various departments across the country.
Officials in the Ministry said increasing retirement age requires a detailed consultation with all stake holders and discussion with the Finance Ministry.
Without the Finance Ministry's permission, the matter cannot not be processed, they said.
At a time when government is working on austerity drive by cutting expenditure and putting in efforts to rein in current account deficit (CAD), the move to increase retirement age will also burden the exchequer's kitty, they said.
The CAD, which is the difference between the inflow and outflow of foreign currency, had touched a record high of 6.7 per cent in the October-December quarter of 2012-13 on the back of rising oil and gold imports.
The retirement age for a majority of central government employees is 60 years. However, the age for retirement in case of teachers and scientists is 62 years.
The age of superannuation in states like Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Assam is also 60 years.
In a related development, the government has decided to further increase the retirement age of specialists in scientific and medical fields (scientists) to 64 years.
"A Committee has been formed under the chairmanship of Cabinet Secretary by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh for the purpose," said another Personnel Ministry official.

Sub : Non
feeding of name and address of the addressee while booking through Point of
Sale - reg
This is regarding non
feeding of name and address of the addressee while booking through Point of
Sale at Post Offices. During visit of officers from Directorate to various
delivery Post Offices, it has been observed that the delivery manifest of Speed
Post and Registered Post letters generated through the system did not bear the
name and address of the addressee on delivery slips against every article
thereby consuming a substantial amount of time and delaying their departure for
their respective beats.
If the name and address
of the addressee along with correct PIN code is entered at the time of booking
at Point of Sale, the details are electronically transmitted to the delivery
office concerned, when the beat wise delivery manifest is generated, the name
and address of the addressee gets automatically printed on the manifest. This saves
a lot of time at the delivery offices and ensures that Postman leave for their
beats on time.
Hence all are requested
to ensure that at all offices, name and address of the addressee alongwith
correct PIN code are entered in the system at the time of booking of Speed Post
and Registered letters through “Point of Sale” and it may be ensured that
communication modules are being run regularly.
