It is therefore requested that reconciliation of pension debits may be carried out scrupulously and corrective action be taken in consultation with PPO issuing Railway/PU. The following aspects may also be considered to reduce the number of items in the exception list.

1. prompt revision of pre-2016 pension cases.
2. Sanitization of the unlinked scrolls.
