IESM: Fast for Justice Rally Jantar Mantar- fifty fifth day

Date: Wednesday, 11 February, 2009, 12:26 AM
Dear colleagues,
ESM from Uttarkhand, assisted by Gurgaon braves, are operating the Jantar Mantar venue.

Foundation Stone of Bangalore War Memorial
I write this from Bangalore. The Governor of Karnataka laid the foundation stone of the National Military War Memorial this evening. Credit goes to Rajiv Chandrasekhar, MP (Indep) who really has been pushing the project. In addition, our compliments to the following members for their immense contribution:
  • Air Commodore Chandrasekhar
  • Col Vivek Bopiah
  • Lt Col Sreedhar

    In his remarks, Rajiv Chandrasekhar had highlighted the point about the need to look after the Ex Servicemen and touched upon the surrendering of medals two days ago. Later in his remarks, the MOS for Defence Mr Pallam Raju recounted the related ‘great contribution’ made by Manmohan Singh govt in that they have created an Ex Servicemen Welfare Department in the Ministry. I heard someone in the row behind mutter 'amen'!
