ATRPFM, while appreciating the State Government and the Minister concerned for implementing Pension Scheme for ADC Employees, has expressed dissatisfaction while learning that some group of individuals of an  association has allegedly extracted money from ADC employees for extension of pension benefits.
It alleged that some individuals under ADC Employees Pension Demand Committee Manipur has collected a huge amount of money from the ADC employees.
"We wanted to ask whether the pension scheme is implemented by the State Government or purchased by the employees by way of contributions of funds", asserted ATRPFM.
ATRPFM has all the evidences which supports the fact that some people have allegedly collected a huge amount of money in the name of pension benefits, it claimed and added that it had also urged the authorities concerned to take necessary action at the earliest.
However, no action has been taken till date, remarked ATRPFM. It warned all individuals concerned, who have involved in the crime, to come clean within five days.
Pension scheme is implemented by the State Government and not purchased by the employees, it said while adding that ATRPFM has been working tirelessly for its implementation and it has been achieved without financial involvement. 
ATRPFM will not tolerate any kind of corruption practices in the hill areas and will fight against any individual or group of individuals, it asserted and added that urged all like-minded individuals and groups will extend cooperation on the matter.
