Dear Veterans, Your wait is over. MoD has, finally,
issued the ordes regarding Modified Parioty in
Pension for JCOs.and below on 8-3-2010.

Delay was due to the fact that some of own(R)own
veterans, still,having sway in MoD.,were
instrumental in getting these orders delayed as
they wanted JCOs. and belowto look forward to
them like MAI BAPP for every thing as did during
active service and follow them.We have be careful
about them.
Now those veterans are opposing the Govt.steps to
abolish the Tradition of Deploying Sahayaks with
officers in Army.We have to stand, firmly,aginst them
and support the Govt. abolish this colonial tradition of
misuse of combatants.
MoD clears pending pension orders.
Ajay BanerjeeTribune News Service

New Delhi, March 10Just five days after Prime Minister
Manmohan Singh promised in Lok Sabha to address the
issue of pensions for ex-servicemen, the Ministry of
Defence today circulated instructions to implement two
pending matters.
This would increase the pensions of jawans and also bring
the much-awaited parity between persons who were getting
lesser pension than their juniors.
The Ministry has issued orders to bring about parity
between persons who retired before October 10, 1997, and
those who retired after that date. This will be applicable
to all persons below other ranks (PBORS) of the Army, Air
Force and the Navy.
About 12 lakh retired jawans, airmen and sailors, who
form the core of Defence Minister AK Antony’s long-term
welfare measures, will be benefited.
The second part of the latest instructions is to improve the
pensions as per the award of the Group of Ministers in 2006.
This mean the award has been accepted and orders issued
in this regard.
It may be mentioned that these two issues were pending
since last year’s Lok Sabha polls, and even ended up
creating a minor controversy. Media reports were then
published quoting unidentified sources that the same had
been cleared, even as the five-phase polling process was on.
The Election Commission had sought a clarification and
the Ministry had to clarify that the said media reports
were false.
Sources in the Ministry of Defence today explained that
a Committee under the chairmanship of the Cabinet
Secretary has considered the demands of the
ex-servicemen and made seven recommendations.
Five of these had been cleared and two were pending.
The other five points cleared by the Cabinet Secretary
and implemented by the MoD were:

1.Inclusion of Classification Allowance for PBOR from 1.1.2006;
2.Removal of linkage of full pension with 33 years from 1.1.2006;
3.Revision of Lt Generals’ pension after carving out a separate
pay scale for them;
4. Broad banding percentage of disability/war injury pensions
for pre 1.1.2006 disability/war injury pensioners.
5. Removal of cap on war injury element of pension in the case
of disabled pensioners.
All these moves will collectively cost Rs 2,200 crore to the
exchequer annually. Implementation of these orders will
not only significantly reduce the gap between the past and
the current pensioners but will also considerably improve
the pension of ex-servicemen, including disabled
ex-servicemen. Last week, the Prime Minister and BJP
veteran LK Advani had an exchange of sharp words over
the matter. Advani has accused the government of going
back on its words of helping the ex-servicemen in and
implementing ‘one rank one pension”.
