We all wish that the new dawn of the new year 2018 will bring some hope of relief for the Pensioners in LIC. The DA anomaly will no longer exist in 2018. Pension up- gradation will be a reality for us. The financial miseries to which LIC pensioners, particularly very senior pensioners, are subjected to will be a matter of the past and they will regain their respect in the family as well as in the society. Their regular medical expense for self and spouse will not depend on the mercy of their relatives and friends. They will not have to hide their distress by compromising personal requirements in view of the depleting funds. And above all the mental agony these retirees face day in and day out will finally come to an end. But then the memory of what we got in the past come to our mind. The Legal battle for getting our just demand moves from one Court to the other – once from lower court to higher court and then again from higher court to lower court. We get confused about justice. The Court was convinced and ordered interim relief without specifying the quantum of relief. Out of the two distinct prayers of the retired employees of LIC whether the court considered any one or both requiring relief was not clear and this gave rise to an actionable situation compelling retirees to run to the court for justice. As a lay man we sometimes get confused why a lower court goes beyond its terms of reference set by the apex court and argues on issues beyond the purview. Also why the same court sets norms when apex court opined that nothing can be decided unless parliament amends the laws. We are more confused to see when instead of judicial relief afforded by our constitution, we get financial relief which was not prayed for at all. God knows how long the controversy at the cost of toil, time and money will have to be tolerated by LIC pensioners some of whom are gradually are leaving this world after looking forward to the seat of justice in vain for decades? We also cannot forget the memory of fights among pensioner leaders to grab the limelight to become the father of success in legal battles. We have seen how some of them were totally confused, just like us, in understanding the Court verdicts. It is nice that some of them have gone missing for quite some time or are involving themselves in religious activities, just like a common pensioner who pray for some good news from the courts in lieu of trying to understand what is the process of justice in our case. LIC pensioners do not have any choice since no other method give them the opportunity to at least pray for a dawn which will bring some good news for them. So we must continue to fight the legal battle, not for the benefit of so called leaders, but for our own reason to hope for a day when the bright morning sunlight will bring some Good News for all of us- during our lifetime. Let us hope the new year 2018 has in store that day for us. Page 3 of 26 Federation News: NEW ALL INDIA COMMITTEE 2017-2019 PRESIDENT N.P BALI MUMBAI VICE PRESIDENT D.M.

Indira Sagar dam (major irrigation project) which is also commonly known as Gosi Khurd dam is constructed on Wainganga River, a major tributary of Godavari River near Pauni in Bhandara district in the state of Maharashtra in India. The fish fauna of Indira Sagar dam is yet not been documented. The present work was undertaken to study fish biodiversity and to present a comprehensive report on the diversity and threats to the fish fauna of the Indira Sagar dam.
