Nothing without struggle  

“Rail Pensioners march to New Jalpaiguri” 

When to avert ‘Mahabharat’ Lord Krishna wanted to make a compromise between Pandvas and Kauravas with merely 5 villages under Pandava’s control and rest entire estate with Kauravas but Kaurvas replied “Can’t give a piece of land even equal to the top of needle without a war. Same situate before us today, Govt. of India is rejecting every just demand of Pensioners. N.F. Railway Pensioners Association invites you to IIIrd National Convention of Railway Pensioners Associations under the aegis of BHARAT PENSIONERS SAMAJ at New Jalpaiguri (WB) On 29th March 2012

The Retired Railway Employees Welfare Association (RREWA), Gurgaon is doing a yeoman service to Railway Pensioners in particular and other Pensioners in general.  Its yearly Journal is not only interesting and informative but also provides them necessary guidance in various issues like health care, financial planning, strategies for making their voice heard, in addition to keeping them upto date about the various concerned orders issued by the Railway Administration / Government of India.

The RREWA website provides information with ease to all Pensioners and Senior Citizens. It is very popular and has registered its presence in 83 countries and 132 cities of India and has crossed the landmark of 300,000 Visitors.

Some other notable Achievements/Contributions by RREWA are :

·          RREWA has been re-nominated to SCOVA (Standing Committee of Voluntary Agencies) of the Government of India which is a rare honour.

·          RREWA has been nominated in the GOI advisory committee of users for web based  ‘Pensioners’ Portal ‘ under National  e Governance plan (NeGP)

Management of the Association is in competent hands and I am confident that the RREWA will improve its performance further to achieve newer heights.
