Chat GPT correction

Note:- When I had been received GoP Pension according to HSCP order of dated 10 July 2025 ,from PTET . I was doubtful the less GoP pension had been given , probably wrong calculation by GM PTET.

To verify the same whether it was correct or not I had given this task to AI Chat to verify.

AI ChatGPT intimated that it was incorrect . It was very less GoP due to wrong way pension calculation 

As PTET adopted the wrong calculation method. Then it had been calculated by AI ChatGPT through  correct method and became to know due to wrong calculation method , less GoP pension had been calculated. Which had been represented to GM PTET (whose under signature list was submitted to the court) and according to rules and also told him  that this dispute is not legal but it has happened due to wrong calculation . It should be corrected and accordingly . I should be given this GOP pension. No any response has been received to me yet from PTET

Then I requested Chat GT to guide such affected pensioners in this regard. Which had been given below for your all necessary action etc

 Issue of Incorrect Restriction and Faulty Pension Calculation – Clarification for All Affected Retirees

It has been observed that Pakistan Telecommunication Employees Trust (PTET), while implementing the judgment dated 10 July 2025, has limited the grant of Government of Pakistan (GoP) pension only to those retired employees of Pakistan Telecommunication Company Limited (PTCL) who were recruited in T&T through FPSC  and belonged to BPS-17 and above.

Why This Interpretation Appears Incorrect

The Court’s judgment did not create any classification based on:

- Mode of induction (FPSC or otherwise),

- Whether an employee was BPS-16, BPS-17, or above,

- Petitioners versus similarly placed non-petitioners.

Rather, the principle settled was that:

> Employees who were originally Government servants in T&T and whose service/pension was protected cannot be deprived of GoP pensionary benefits merely because of later structural changes.

Therefore, restricting the benefit only to a selected group appears to be an administrative interpretation, not a judicial direction.

Second Major Issue – Incorrect Pension Calculations

In the list issued, even for those allowed GoP pension, the calculations appear flawed because:

1. Cumulative pension increases were not properly carried forward.  

2. Pension for FY-2024-2025 was fixed on a reduced base figure.  

3. The 2025-2026 increase (7%) was applied on that incorrect base.  

4. Arrears were computed using the same defective methodology.

Your own case demonstrates this clearly:

- PTET fixed your 2024-2025 pension lower than what results from proper GoP increase application.

- Once recalculated correctly, both monthly pension and arrears increased substantially.

- This strongly suggests that similar under-calculation may exist in the cases of all 285 retirees.

---

What This Means for the 285 Affected Pensioners

This is not merely an individual grievance. It is potentially a systemic calculation error combined with a restrictive interpretation of eligibility.

If not corrected collectively, it may permanently reduce:

- Monthly pension,

- Arrears already due,

- Future annual increases (since all depend on the base pension).

---

Recommended Step-by-Step Course of Action

Step 1 – Obtain Individual Calculation Sheets

Each retiree should request:

- Detailed pension fixation sheet,

- Basis of eligibility decision,

- Year-wise increase calculation.

Without this, discrepancies cannot be legally challenged.

---

### Step 2 – File Individual Representations (Essential First Remedy)

Every affected retiree should submit a written representation requesting:

- Removal of the FPSC/BPS restriction,

- Recalculation of pension on cumulative GoP increase basis,

- Issuance of a revised Pension Payment Order calculation.

This creates the legal record that the error was pointed out.

---

Step 3 – Form a Small Representative Group

A group of 10-15 retirees should coordinate documentation to:

- Compare calculations,

- Identify uniform errors,

- Establish that the issue is common to all 285 cases.

Courts give greater weight to pattern errors than isolated claims.

---

Step 4 – Seek Clarification from PTET at Institutional Level

A joint representation should request:

- The legal basis for restricting benefit to FPSC recruits,

- The formula used for pension computation,

- Reconciliation with the Court judgment.

Administrative correction is always faster than litigation if pursued collectively.

---

Step 5 – If Not Rectified → Serve Legal Notice (Collectively)

If no correction is made:

- A consolidated legal notice should be issued,

- Highlighting defective implementation rather than fresh litigation.

This positions the matter as non-compliance, not a new claim.

---

Step 6 – Final Remedy (If Required)

Only if administrative resolution fails:

- A petition for proper implementation may be filed,

- Supported by comparative calculations of multiple retirees.

Courts respond more strongly where:

✔ A judgment exists, and  

✔ Implementation is mathematically or administratively flawed.

---

Key Advice

Do not treat this as 285 separate battles.  

This must be handled as one issue affecting all similarly placed retirees.

The strength of the case lies in:

- Uniform service origin,

- Identical pension structure,

- Repeated calculation mistake.

---

Conclusion

The present situation appears to involve:

1. A restrictive reading of eligibility not flowing from the judgment, and  

2. A computational methodology that understates pension and arrears.

Timely, organized representation can still secure correction without prolonged litigation.
