***** ORDER: In the Government Order first read above, among other things, it has been ordered that 60% of the arrears accruing on account of pay revision for the period from 1--1--1996 to 31--3--1998 shall be credited to General Provident Fund Account of the employees. In the Government Order second read above, it has been ordered that the above arrears shall be paid to the employees after 5 years i.e., in the year 2003 with interest and the interest shall accrue with effect from 1--4--1998. In the Government Order third read above, relevant provisions in the General Provident Fund Rules have been amended in order to enable the Accountant General (Accounts & Entitlements), Chennai to keep open the Provident Fund Account beyond the date of retirement of the Government employees whose pay revision arrears with interest have been ordered to be paid after 5 years i.e., in the year 2003. 2) As the State had to face an un-precedented financial crisis since the year 2000-2001, which has made it extremely difficult to pay these arrears. The Government have re-examined the issue of payment of 60% arrears of pay ordered in 1998. It will not be possible for the Government to release the entire amount involved in the payment of pay revision arrears to the employees, who retired from 1--1--1996 to 31--3-- 2003 in the financial year 2004--2005 itself. As the arrear amount constituted a substantial financial outgo, the Government have been unable to pay out the same in one go. Taking into consideration the present financial position of the State and all relevant factors, the Government has announced the revised scheme for the payment of balance 60% arrears of pay and allowances as follows:-
3) In the Government Orders fourth and fifth read above, orders have been issued regarding the mode of payment of 60% balance pay and allowances arrears from the year 2004-2005 onwards. 4) In the circumstances stated above, the following amendment shall be issued to the Government Order first read above. AMENDMENT In the said Government Order in para 3, the two paragraphs in sub-para (f) shall be renumbered as items (i) and (ii) of that sub-para and after item (ii) as so renumbered, the following items shall be added, namely:- "(iii) In respect of those who retired between 1.1.1996 and 31.3.2004, 60% of the arrears of Pay and Allowances with interest worked out upto 31.3.2003 will be blocked into a non-interest bearing account from 1.4.2003 and paid in Small Savings Scrips in three equal instalments starting from 2004-2005. (iv) 60% of pay arrears in respect of those, who are in service will be retained in a non-interest bearing deposit account from 1.4.2003 and will be paid at the time of retirement in the form of Small Savings Scrips in three equal annual instalments. For example, those retiring during the year 2004-2005, the first instalment of the balance arrears together with interest upto 31.3.2003 will be paid in 2004-2005, the second and third instalment will be paid in two subsequent years".
