    Dear Sir, I am grade 20 officers retired from Local Govt Department GoS. My services are not declared as CIVIL Service. GoS has allowed RS 12000/ per month as special allowance in Pension for Retired as well as In Service Employees . But FD GoS has turned down my request for this Allowance because I am Not Civil Servant. I am deprived of this allowance since my retirement wef March 2009. Kindly let me know what should I do.
