Hi, Folks, We are happy to send you a few pics of our Disney Visit. We had 2 days of hectic touring in 2 Theme Parks.

The pics & the captions will say it all. Enjoy! Our Prayers and Blessings for A Very Happy & Prosperous New Year-2010, to each one of you!

3. Revision of Pension/Family Pension and revision of PPOs:


In respect of ALL Pensioners/Family Pensioners, the PPOs issued by the RDSO have to be got revised and re-issued by the RDSO. The Pensioners/Family Pensioners may therefore take necessary action as per procedure detailed HERE!
We have introduced a Category as "Pensioners Get your PPOs revised by RDSO" on our Forum for memers to post their doubts for obtaining clarifications from other members.  Members are requested to raise doubts on the forum and put up the clarifications on the forum only so that other members may benefit from the replies, instead of corresponding through emails/telephone.

4. General Information on Get-Togethers arranged by us.

The first Get-Together of RDSO families was arranged by Mr. K.Santhanam at the Arihant Apartments at his own expenses on his 70th Birthday.  The next one was arranged on 17th FEB 2008 at GRAYSHOTT, R.A.Puram, wherein about 40 to 50 families participated.   Some members from outside Tamil Nadu also participated and enjoyed the company of old friends.  Again it was arranged on 18th MAY 2008 and the attendance was very thin.   Overall, everybody appreciated and found enjoyment in meeting our old friends and refresh our evergreen memories of unforgettable living and standing together in all ups and downs of each and every family during our life at Delhi, Chittaranjan, Simla and Lucknow.   During the get-together on 17.2.08 many friends contributed Rs.4350/- and as on date a sum of Rs.2,480/- is available.   Our friend Mr. K.Ramachandran has created a web site as RDSO RETIRED GROUP (http://www.rdsoretired.info) for the benefit of RDSO families where, after logging into the FORUM one can see many details, addresses of our friends, 6th CPC details, views of our friends, etc. etc.  All our colleagues are requested to register themselves in the Forum so that one can know the whereabouts of our colleagues.  There are many phone calls from friends about the next Get-together. However, the Get-Together we arranged for 11th January, 2009 had to be postponed due to unforeseen circumstances. We shall soon arrange for a Get-Together and inform every member.
