Navy Foundation Kochi Chapter
Extracts of a message from the NFKC President Rear Admiral G Kuruvilla are reproduced below:
“Dear Friends
1. I am enclosing a small write up on IESM along with details of pension tables, an IESM poster and Membership form received from Maj Gen (Retd) Satbir Singh, SM, Vice Chairman Indian ESM Movement.
This Movement has picked up well and its intensity and activities are spreading all over India. The ESM across country are volunteering to join the Movement to get Justice to the Defence Services. Very senior officers in large numbers are joining the Movement daily. Recently V Adm Harinder Singh (former C-in-C South and President of NF Delhi Chapter.) has joined the movement. There is urgent need to give the Movement a strong push forward by giving it the widest publicity and motivating all the ESM organizations and ESM to join the Movement.
2. Please note that this is the only ESM Organization that has taken up our OROP issue seriously at National level and has been at it for the last one year. Presently a relay hunger strike is going on at Jantar Mantar at Delhi. The members and supporters of this Org is making sacrifices for the sake of ALL of us and let us support the movement in what ever way it is possible in our individual capacity as an ESM.
Jai Hind
R Adm G Kuruvilla (Retd)”
It gives us a great sense of pride that the Navy has been moving on full sail to join the IESM. I have no doubt that with our unity of purpose and combined efforts we will succeed in our mission.
