All India Reserve Bank Retired Employees Association (AIRBREA), Mumbai has written a letter to the Hon’ble Governor regarding issues concerning pensioners and family pensioners in RBI due to bureaucratic hurdles.

  • On April 1, 2024, the RBI celebrated its 90th anniversary.
  • The RBI has played a unique dual role as the central bank and a developmental institution for the Indian economy.
  • Notably, the RBI transferred a surplus of Rs 9,75,118 crores to the Government of India between 2011/12 and 2023/24, a remarkable achievement.
  • Retirees and pensioners express gratitude for the justice done during your Governorship.
  • However, bureaucratic hurdles have prevented full justice in pension matters relating to RBI Pensioners.
  • The primary demands involve the rightful update of pensions and family pensions, including the payment of arrears.
  • Despite statutory provisions (such as the RBI Act, 1934, and RBI Pension Regulations, 1990), pension updates have not been implemented.
  • The periodic pension revisions supported by Supreme Court judgments and constitutional provisions have been disregarded.
