IESM: Rally at Hissar on 6 May 2010

Dear Colleagues,
Satbir, Kameshwar Pandey and self attended an ESM rally at Hisar today. It was attended by a large number of families and ESM. Heartful compliments and well-done to Veteran Sub Hari Singh for his untiring zeal and energy in organizing the event Everyone present resolved to continue the efforts till we get full OROP. It was also resolved to keep the struggle within the law and discipline. A total of 134 new members joined the IESM family. Membership cards were issued on the spot.

It may be recalled that the government notification for enhancement of pensions of JCOs and OR was issued on 8 March 2010. That day there was also another significant development; the Supreme Court pronounced its judgment in favour of the officers’ rank pay case (in which the judges had used very stern words against the government). Subsequently the government has challenged the latter, requesting the apex court to recall its judgment. Date of the two events being the same, many ESM have been confused into thinking that the government wishes to cancel the pension enhancement notification. Colleagues may kindly clarify this issue whenever they interact with the ESM.

Best regards,
Lt Gen (Emeritus) Raj Kadyan, PVSM, AVSM, VSM
Chairman IESM
