IESM: Chairman's Desk- Bureaucratic buckling and bungling

Date: Tuesday, 12 May, 2009, 8:43 PM
Dear Colleagues,
Some news reports have hinted that when cornered by the EC on the moral propriety of constituting a Committee for defence pensions, the government have now denied that any such committee has been constituted. This revelation, might cause a shock, but should not come as a surprise. The government of late have been acting insincerely on the subject of pensions. Another report suggests that while canvassing in Uttar Khand, Congress has promised to implement OROP if voted back to power. Such are the shenanigans forced on a political party during elections in a democracy. One fervently hopes the ESM will vote in favour of OROP in the last phase of elections on 13 May 2009.
Best regards,
Lt Gen (Emeritus) Raj Kadyan, PVSM, AVSM, VSM

One Rank- One Pension– For the guardians of security and integrity of India By Lt Gen (Emeritus) Raj Kadyan
