Disability Pension: Present Status

Case won by Gen Oberoi : Disability Element
Dear Rao,
The answers to your queries are as under.
First Case Relating to Broadbanding - I had mentioned that the AFT had given six months to the Government. We therefore need to wait till the expiry of six months. Two things can happen; either the Government goes in appeal, which has not happened as yet, or the government will accept the verdict and issue implementation instructions. My intuition is that the government is unlikely to appeal. We have to just wait.
Case Two Relating to Grant of Disability /War Injury Pay on percentage basis Instead of as Lump Sums - The AFT had given a date in December to the Government to file its reply. I presume they will do so, if they want to contest. Alternatively, they would issue implementation instructions. Again, we have to wait.
Patience is what is needed! I am sure everything will pan out well.
Regards.
Vijay Oberoi
Former Vice Chief of Army Staff (VCOAS)
Former Director Centre for Land Warfare Studies (CLAWS)

Dear Sir,
I am anxious to know the latest on the two case you had filed with AFT. Is the Govt implementing the 'Broadbanding'? Has the AFT decided on the 2nd case ?
With warm reagards,
Gp Capt BV Rao (Retd)
