IESM Campaign for Justice- OROP

Dear Friends,
1. Response to Our Movement has been encouraging. Large number of ESM across country are joining the IESM. It is the numbers which matter. The Govt will take us seriously if we get together in large numbers.

2. IESM efforts are yielding results. Consequent to our hard stand during the meeting on 14 Jan 09 with Secretary ESM, Min of Defence Govt has issued an amendment dated 20 Jan 2009 correcting its letter dated 11 Dec 08. The issue in regard of Lt Gen and Maj Gen getting less pension that of their juniors has been taken care of to certain extent (copy of the letter dated 20 Jan 09 already posted in the blog). But this was only correcting their gross mistake. We need to go a long way to get our demands met. OROP being the most important of our demands.

3. Friends, there is an urgent need to get maximum ESM to join the IESM. We request every one receiving this mail to circulate the same to maximum ESM and motivate and encourage maximum ESM as per his/her reach to join the IESM. All veteran organizations are also requested to join IESM to ensure a large mass of our ESM Unity projecting our case to the Govt. There is no other way but our Unity & only Unity will bring results and give us our due Justice.

4. 8th Feb 09 Rally at Jantar Mantar New Delhi will be the day of reckoning. We must join the Rally in large numbers.

5. May I also request all ESM organizations and individual ESM to enlist the support of media both print and electronic. There are large number of ESM and their wards and relations working in the media. May we request them to get maximum media coverage to bring true facts of our case to the people of our country and ask the Govt to accept our demands.

Please give wide publicity
With Kind Regards,
Yours Sincerely,
Maj Gen (Retd) Satbir Singh, SM
Vice Chairman Indian ESM Movement
