Letter of Brig Dharam Prakash from Navi Mumbai addressed to Chairman IESM Lt Gen Raj Kadyan
Dear General
As planned, Ex servicemen of NAVI MUMBAI were on DHARNA on 15 & 16 Jan 2009 at CBD Belapur railway station in sympathy with our fasting Veterans at Delhi.
Ex servicemen response was very good, we had Veterans coming from far places like Ratnagiri, Nava Shiva Port, and others from Panvel, Kharghar, CBD Belapur, Nerul, Vashi,Airoli, Thane. Arrangements had to be doubled midway due to response. Briefing on IESM and OROP was done. Veterans were happy with steps being taken for OROP. Membership forms of IESM were distributed, till today about 25 completed forms with cheque have been received , more are expected in few days time. All completed forms will be couriered in few days. Some forms are likely to be sent directly to Gurgoan.
Above event was very well covered by print and electronic media. On 15 Jan 2009 we had 5 TV channels and 6/7 press reporters who attended press briefing by Brig Dharam Prakash and Lt Col DP Singh.Dharna is being shown on local/Regional channels like DRISHTI, NMTV, A PLUS, KARNALA TV and local cable network.Some news papers (Hindi,Marathi &English) are likely cover it shortly.
As venue was at public place, lot of general public enquired about OROP and were very sympathetic with the cause. Senior citizens association at Belapur was represented by its President and All India Senior Citizens Confederation (AISCON), General Secretary also joined the Veterans in expressing their solidarity with the cause.
Brigadier Dharam Prakash (Retd)
