Respected Madam,
Yours kind attention is invited to the decision taken on the above subject matter. It was decided in the meeting that the Department of Expenditure would reconsider the issue of restoring the Festival Advance to the Central Government Employees. However till date orders on the subject matter is not yet issued. Since various festivals are forthcoming the employees are pressing hard for an earlier decision on this issue. It is therefore demanded that as agreed in the meeting necessary orders may please be issued for restoring festival advance to the Central Government Employees. Awaiting for your earlier and favorable action please.
Thanking you
Yours sincerely

Festival advance is more a necessity to the pensioner than to the employee’s, as employees get bonus,hrs,CCs,to etc which none is paid to pensioners..They too pweform festivals with extended family of grand children, wile the employees have limited family members. As such pensioners too require FA under the same terms and conditions as applicable to employees. It is requested that the Govt should sanction FA to pensioners from this Deepavali festivals .
