The revised PPO issued by PCDAPENSION ALLAHABAD contains lot of errors like date of birth , address of PENSIONERS, PAN NO even after 3 stage verification ie initiatiating office,Audit office,and finally PCDAPENSION ALLAHABAD. Every AUTHORITIES acted as a post office. No body bothered to verify the proposed PPO WITH THE DOCUMENTS sub.minted. HOW THE AUTHORITIES CAN TOLERATE SUCH LETHARGY ON THE OFFICIALS ..Now it would take a year or so to issue CORRIGENDUM PPO besides the possibility of further correction. It is better to give a copy of draft PPO to the pensioners for scrutiny of errors if any as PENSIONERS are the right pensions to find out errors immediately .
