Dear Concerned ,
As center Govt. is going to extend the retirement age from 60 to 62, where as in himachal Pradesh retirement age is still 58. Why is this being happening??? Even in neighbouring states retirement age of Govt. Employes is 58……. On what criteria himachal is lagging behind??????????????????????
Thanks & regards,

Asking HPTDC to operate liquor vends would be sucidal for this organisation financially. Firstly HPTDC is not meant to operate liquor vends. HIMFED had been operating liquor vends in past and that should had been continued. HPTDC cash flow will be severely locked now as you need hard cash to run this business.
Secondly HPTDC will need to hire new people to run these vends and this will put more pressure on there balance sheets in term of salaries. Probably this has been the reason that HIMFED went into red and it is HPTDC’s turn next.
