Palakkad: The finance department has found out that 2346 government employees are among the ineligible people who receive social security pension. Among them, 2087 are government employees and 259 are temporary employees.
The ineligible beneficiaries were traced after cross-checking the database of the staff in SPARK (Service and Payroll Administrative Repository for Kerala) and the details of beneficiaries of pension in the treasury.
The details of the people who receive service and family pensions in addition to the social security pension also are being collected. Only those who receive ex-gratia family pension of less than Rs 2000 are eligible for social security pension.
Government employees, service pensioners and family pensioners are considered ineligible to receive social security pension and is treated as violation of service conduct.
The ineligible beneficiaries of social security pension should inform the same at the local body and cancel the pension. Also they have to repay the amount from the month they started receiving. If they did not repay the amount on their own, their details should be reported to the concerned department heads.
They will initiate procedures to cut the amount from their salary through SPARK and repay it to the government. The treasury directors also are entitled to cut the amount received by ineligible service pensioners and repay it to the government.
