Veterans Call for One Rank One Pension: Jantar Mantar Rally on November 28, 2010

Dear Friends,
Jai Hind.
I have received hundreds of emails from veterans which indicate that majority of them have no faith in the recently appointed Grievances Commission by the Government.
Although the Grievances Commission has most trusted and capable Judges and retired General Officers, veterans seem to be having doubts of the outcome of the Commission.
Sincerity of the Government became doubtful because of the Government trying to refer the case of ‘Rank Pay’ also back to the Commission.
It clearly indicates that even the cases decided by the Supreme Court in favour of the retired Defence personnel are not acceptable to the Government – what a shame to those pretending to be our well-wishers by appointing the recent Commission!
To most of the Military Veterans, the appointment of the Grievance Commissions appears to be a strong effort by the Government to mislead the Veterans and sabotage the strong All India Movement by the Veterans against injustice to Defence personnel.
We need to defeat these evil designs to sabotage our fight for justice.
While we may hope and pray for the success of the Grievances Commission to give us justice, the planned rally of IESM on 28 Nov 10, at Jantar Mantar, New Delhi needs to be held in greater strength and with more josh by all Military Veterans, their families, friends and well wishers.
LET US ALL STAND SHOULDER TO SHOULDER AT JANTAR MANTAR, NEW DELHI, ON 28 NOV 10, 10 AM TO 3 PM AND FIGHT FOR JUSTICE FOR DEFENCE SERVICES- IT IS NOW OR NEVER

Please read letter from Maj Gen Satbir Singh, Vice Chairman IESM, which has been posted yesterday. Kindly give wide publicity to the contents of this email.
I appeal to all members of "REPORT MY SIGNAL", that even if you are not a member of IESM, to kindly join the rally.
It is no use sending those emails praising the work of "REPORT MY SIGNAL" if you do not accept my humble request – PLEASE BE THERE AT JANTAR MANTAR ON 28 NOV 10.
Essential adm arrangements are being made by IESM at the rally site. Come with family and friends.
For those coming from NCR – the most convenient way is to come by the Metro à get down at the Patel Chowk Metro Station à walk towards Jantar Mantar, within 300 metres from the Patel Chowk Metro station you will find the IESM shamianas.
I also appeal to all veterans to kindly activate your media contacts and ensure maximum media coverage of the IESM Rally at Jantar Mantar, from 10.00 AM to 3.00 PM, on 28 Nov 10.
In service of Indian Military Veterans
Chander Kamboj.
