e rumours associated. Shri. K. M. Chandrasekhar clarified that the government has no intentions in changing the retirement age and the current system will be followed. “I tried to find out. But there is no file in (Department of) Expenditure, no file in DOPT (Department of Personnel and Training). There is nothing. It is more of a wishful thinking,” he said in an interview. At present the retirement age for the Central Government employees is 60. He also added that there is no plans to unify the retirement age of the state government staff across the states. “The states will decide their own retirement age,” he said.

If one is very capable he/she can get job anywhere.
It is better to retire after 30 years of service irrespective of age. If one can contribute definitely he/she can contribut in 30 years.
I have four children. Their date of birth is as under:
1st Son - 16.10.1989
2nd Daughter - 22.10.1992
3rd son & dauther (both twins) born on 09.04.1994
I have claimed CEA since last four/five years of both elder children upto 2006-07. Now my both elder children (son & daughter) have passed 12th class in academic session-2007-08 and doing their gratuation.
Kindly clarify whether I can claim CEA in respect of my only both twin children who are styding in class 9th. My office has raised the observation with regard to CEA in r/o of my twin children that "You have already claim CEA for both elder children for 4/5 years. Thus you are not eligible for claiming CEA in r/o both twins children.
