(iv) Interest on delayed Payment of pension - recovery from
pension sanctioning Authorities :-
The proceedure for payment of pension was detailed in Appendix-I of A.P.
Revised Pension Rules 1980. As per that, advance action has to be taken by
the employees and the pension sanctioning authorities so as to settle the
pension by the time employee retires. In spite of that, there are cases where
interest was paid on pension following the court orders due to not proceesing
the pension case in advance. It is therefore ordered that the amount of interest
paid on pension, shall be recovered from the Pension sanctioning authority.
