Pensioners Post - Travelled Nine years  - & - entering 10th year of 2025!

 

Pensioners Post - the CHQ monthly of AIPRPA - All.India Postal & RMS Pensioners Association - is entering in its 10th year!

 Yes! Its age is.Nine and entering in its 10th year with the January 2025 issue! It was founded while 7th CPC was about to give its package. Now we are demanding formation of 8th CPC!

 Many achievements during this time. Postal Pensioners were not admitted in CGHS unless they retired from CGHS cities! We have made it possible that all Postal Pensioners irrespective of their area of retirement, can join CGHS. Postal Dispensaries were merged with CGHS. Compulsory retirement was not given treatment at par with others! We consistently took it and the issue was settled. AIPRPA and Pensioners Post played its prominent role so that Option 3 in lieu of Option 1 was implemented to us! We can narate our achievements but we are waging a bitter fight for many other issues! 

 To strengthen the movement of Pensioners, we have to strengthen our journal!

A Revolutionary Mass Leader is No More - Amar Rahe_

 Comrade Yechuri breathed his last!

It is shocking that the General Secretary CPIM and close friend and leader of Working Class is no more! He fought and in the forefront of several struggles for bringing the working class to national power! His parting us is an irreparable loss to the entire working class of India and the world! We share the immeasurable grief! Long live Comrade Sitaram Yechury! NCCPA lowers its banner and flag in fond memory of comrade Yechury! Red Salutes!

Greet the Success of the TUI(P&R) World Congress!

 

Trade Union International (Pensioners & Retirees) 3^rd World Congress

 

The 3^rd World Congress of TUI (P&R) is being organized at Athens (Greece) from 14-18 April, 2024. Greece is an European Country and we learn that the Pension Quantum was reduced 17 times in that country and many Pensioners committed suicide also. Powerful movement by the Pensioners Associations and Working Class of that country headed by WFTU and TUI(P&R) have been launched. An appropriate country to hold the World Congress of the TUI(P&R).

 

From India, six Delegates and one Visitor representing NCCPA, AIBDPA and AIPRPA as well as a new Affiliate ‘All Kerala Bank Retirees Forum’ and an accompanying husband of a woman comrade from AIBDPA are to attend. So far VISA is granted to 5 Comrades by Greece and the remaining two are trying for VISA.

 

Comrades K.Ragavendran Secretary General NCCPA and TUI Asia Coordinator; D.K.Debnath General Secretary AIPRPA; A.K.Ghosh Working President NCCPA and Member of the Finance Commission TUI(P&R); Swastika Dasgupta AIBDPA Vice President and Member of the Women Commission TUI(P&R); her husband got the VISA so far.

 

Comrades K.G.Jayaraj General Secretary AIBDPA and Executive Committee Member TUI(P&R); M.Suresh General Secretary AKBRF and a new Member TUI(P&R) have not been given VISA so far by the Greece. The attempts are on and shortly the results will be known.

 

The World Congress of TUI(P&R) is expected to be large with representatives of a large number of countries of the world. The World Congress will review our past growth and plan for the movement to be launched by the world pensioners and retirees in all countries. We know well that already each year October 1^st is being observed as “World Pensioners Day” by the TUI(P&R) synchronizing with the UN Call of “World Elders”. Against the medical mafia who charge different medicines with different prices with a profit motive is targeted and the world congress will plan action.

 

From India, we are going to emphasize an excusive action in addition to World Pensioners Day as decided in our Thiruvananthapuram Regional TUI (P&R) Conference recently. It is an occasion to understand the condition of Pension and
Social Security in all countries today and to plan for appropriate action. We will also take up the new affiliation to TUI(P&R) the ‘AKBRF’ and ‘DRPU’ as they have expressed their desire to become affiliates of TUI(P&R).

 

NCCPA greets the Trade Union International (Pensioners and Retirees) for its successful World Congress at Athens (Greece).

International Women Day Symposium!

 

March – 8: International Women Day

 

The International Women Day on March 8 is observed in the whole world. It is evident that the countries of Socialism depict a different picture of safety and economic freedom to the women in contrast to the capitalist world that is no doubt the overwhelming majority.

 

In the capitalist world, the women are looked upon as sex objects and women trafficking is a major concern. Girls and women are forced into sex trade and there is no humanity in this flesh trade. There is no financial freedom to women in the capitalist countries where the working women also are financially subservient to the men folk especially the husbands. The equal pay for men and women is still a far cry in most of the countries except in big businesses and Public Sectors.

 

International Women Day should be an eye opener and the women folk should come out openly in opposing the injustices against them. The day is creating awareness among the women folk more and more. But, wearing of same sarees in the offices and celebrating the day with sweets etc are not going to bring the situation to any change and the struggles alone can lead to emancipation. The men folk no doubt should involve in the struggle but it is the women who have to organize themselves and agitate against the prevailing injustices.

 

WFTU (World Federation of Trade Unions) has taken initiative to organize a symposium online today at 8.30 P.M IST. The topic of the INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM is “THE ROLE OF WORKING WOMEN IN THE INTERNATIONAL CLASS ORIENTED TRADE UNION MOVEMENT”. DANIA LEYVA (Cuba) and CINZIA DELLA PORTA (Italy), members of the Educational Committee of the IWI (International Workers Institute) will be addressing the symposium.

 

All are invited to participate online in Zoom. The LINK to Zoom is:
