The O.P.No.2 contacted and received letter from the South Eastern Railway Authority dtd. 23.06.2016 with revised PPA and is sincerely trying to release the pensionary benefits along with arrear pension and denying all the allegations.
The O.P.No.2 appears through his advocate and submitted that the complainant was working at Brajrajnagar which comes under South Eastern Railway, Bilaspur instead of which the complainant has made party to the O.P.No.2.
