Comments
Statistical data on most of the Armed Forces webpages are obviously not updated. Correct ESM statistics are vital for planning and execution of Welfare Projects, to benefit our Jawans (PBOR) who comprise 95 percent of the Armed Forces. What is the total number of ESM as registered in Zilla Boards as on date? Can we plan ahead without basic inputs?
