Kohima, April 28 (MExN): All retired State Government officers/officials have been informed that pension and GPF Final payment cases settled up to the month of March 2016 have been uploaded on the Accountant General (AG) Nagaland website. Pensioners may log on to the website at www.agnagaland.gov.in, click on Felicitation and Pension or GPF Felicitation or directly click on the Sticky Note written ”Click here to view list of settled PENSION /GPF final payment cases”. The list has also been put up for display at the Public Relation Cell and can be viewed on any working days during office hours, according to a press release from Information System Cell, AG (A&E) Nagaland office.
AG (A&E) has once again requested all retired Government employees to record their personal mobile numbers in the pension documents to enable the office to intimate them on the progress of their pension cases through SMSs. The SMSs will be triggered through Pension Database SMS gateway No. 9402739265; since the number is integrated with the system, pensioners have been requested not to call the number but to note it down as all SMSs will be initiated through it. SMSs will be sent during the following stages: When confirmation on the pension case is received; when the case is sent back to the department due to observation/objections; and when the pension case is completed.
The release further requested aggrieved pensioners or government officials with genuine problems to write directly to the Deputy Accountant General (A&E) Kahoto J Yepthomi via e-mail at kahoto_j@yahoo.co.in or agaenagaland@cag.gov.in or through a handwritten letter on the address given below for immediate clarification and redressal of their grievances: Kahoto J Yepthomi, IAAS, Deputy Accountant General (A&E), Office of the Accountant General (A&E), Kohima - 797001, Nagaland. They can also submit suggestions to strengthen the delivery system, the release said.
Meanwhile, the release informed all gazetted officers whose payslips are issued from the AG Office that incumbency list and post continuation orders for more than fifty departments are yet to be received by the office. The matter is already taken up with the department of P&AR in a letter dated 11-03-2016 with copies duly endorsed to the concerned Secretaries and Directors. The departments in receipt of the letter have been asked to adhere to the guidelines and expedite the submission of Incumbency list and post-continuation order for further action at this end.
Further, all Heads of Department in the State government have been requested to ensure timely submission of all retirement related documents (six months before the date of retirement ) to avoid harassment to retired officials at various processing stages. Cases of many officials received before the date of retirement have been settled by the AG office on their retirement date/day “as a demonstration of seriousness this office accords to sensitivities of retired officials and their retirement benefits,” it said. Departments have been asked to seriously take up the matter of timely submission of retirement documents, so as to enable the pensioners to receive their retirement benefits in time.
