Sir,

Sub: Disbursement of pension to Central Government pensioners in Kerala State on 15^th August in connection with  “Onam” festival

           “Onam” the State Festival of Kerala which is celebrated by all in the State commences from 15^th August this year. The has been the practice to issue orders to draw /disburse salary and pension to Central Government employees / pensioners for the month in which the festival falls, well in advance to its commencement. This year as pointed out the celebration starts from 15^th August and culminates on 25^th August. We shall be grateful if orders are issued to all the Disbursing Authorities to disburse the pension for the month on 15^th August 2018 to enable the pensioners to celebrate the festival in a fitting manner like others in the state. It is worthwhile to recollect that similar orders have been issued in previous years too. A favourable response is highly solicited from your end. 

Thanking you                                                                                                                         yours faithfully
