Dear Chander,
Ref: PPOC: click here
I am not one bit surprised by the attitude of the PPOC. It needs to be recalled that when the Flying Allowance was increased for the IAF pilots, no worth while corresponding increase in technical pay for the technical staff was carried out. That had led to much trouble in the IAF: at some of the stations.
At that time I wrote an article giving details of periodic increase in flying allowance (wrongly called bounty) with no corresponding increase in technical pay of technical officers/ staff. Later I had an informal discussion with the concerned former Air Chief on this issue.
I was horrified to learn that it was the army chief who had opposed higher technical pay, as the same would take the pay of these technical officers in the army more than those in the general cadre!
How one can rise to the highest rank and still remain petty minded and retain limited vision!
Regards.
Harwant.
