Sir,

Sub: Non-issuance of Pension

Ref: 1) Cabinet Committee report on Sexual Harassment constituted

Vide Cabinet Secretariat order No.501/IV/3/2012-VCC dt.5-8-13.

2) CAT, Hyderabad orders on OA Nos.309 and 310 / 2010

3) High Court, AP order on WPMP No.36603 in WP

No.29554 / 2011

4) DRDO Hq. Letter dt.14-9-2012 on non-posting anywhere else.

5) Cabinet Secretariat Memo dt.9-12-2015 to S.Christopher,

Secretary, DG DRDO.

6) On line grievance No.DDRDO/E/2016/00111 dt.20-7-16.

I have served in NSTL, DRDO for 35 years 10 months and retired on 29^th Feb. 2016 as Technical Officer-B (Class-I Gazetted).  I gave complaint against Sri SV Rangarajan on sexual harassment dt.18-12-2007.  Without any proper enquiry, DRDO  served me 3 charge sheets and suspended me for 33 months period.

Vide 2^nd reference CAT stated that the pendency of disciplinary proceedings, making allegations against several officers by petitioner also cannot be a ground for extension of suspension.  DRDO revoked my suspension on 7^th Oct. 2011 and transferred me to NPOL, Kochi on the same day.  Vide 3^rd reference, on 29^th Aug. 2012, High Court suspended the transfer order stating that they are prima facie of the opinion that in effect it is an act of victimization and amounts to punishment.

Vide 4^th reference, DRDO stated that my joining at NSTL cannot be permitted as the Department has filed a vacate petition at AP High Court.  High Court has dismissed the Vacate petition filed on transfer order suspension on 4^th Feb. 2013.   From 1^st Nov. 2011 to 3^rd March 2013 i.e., my transfer period and joining not permitted period were not regularized till date.

-: 2 :-

Vide 1^st reference the Committee stated that hostile environment creation by Sri SV Rangarajan (Page No.11), DRDO is lack of sensitiveness, lack of attention to the application of rules and procedures (Page No.12), attitude and action of DRDO administration which has shown a casual and insensitive approach in dealing with the case (Page 13), DRDO and NSTL created a hostile environment in which the petitioner found it difficult to function (Page No.13) which conforms that NSTL and DRDO officials have harassed me in several aspects.  No action was taken by Cabinet / Ministry on the findings of the Report.

Suspension period was regularized after my retirement (i.e, after 4 years) with imposing a penalty (though the matter is pending at High Court).  Transfer period and non-posting period was not regularized so far and my pension and retirement benefits were not settled (even after 7 months of retirement) by which I am facing hardship, mental egony.

The PGPORTAL online grievance as referred 6 above also disposed off as per false and baseless information provided by Dr. Hina Gokhale, DOP, DRDO without proper investigation.

Now the organization processed the partial pension without 2 increments (2013 and 2014) for transfer period which is even less than the provision pension as per PGDA phone inquiry.  Therefore, it is requested to instruct the concerned to take immediate action on the 1^st reference report, Court cases, and release of proper pension and settlement of retirement benefits as early as possible (Gratuity, Commutation and Earned leave encashment).

Thanking you,

Yours faithfully,

(K.SURYA KUMARI)
