Dehradun ESM Rally

The convener of the Rally and President Dehradun Ex- Services League Brig (Retd) K.G.Behl started the Rally with the permission of the senior most officer present, Lt Gen M.S.Gosain PVSM, AVSM, VSM, with National Anthem. Two minutes Silence was observed in the memory of all those who laid their lives for the Country. The Rally was held at Kargil memorial, Gandhi Park on 27 April at 1700hrs.

Brig Behl said that defence persons had a lot of expectations from the 6th Pay Commission as the benefits given by 4th and 5th Pay Commission have not yet been implemented and it was hoped that the 6th CPC will do full justice to the Defence Forces. Since there was no representation of the Defence Forces in the 6th Pay Commission probably the commission was not fed with full facts and figures and they were not aware of the specials conditions under which defence forces work.

Brig Behl requested Mrs Rekha Sharma to present a national song. Col KL Dewan then presented the anomalies he found in the 6th CPC. Maj Gen Nandwani, Col Mamgain and others also put across their views. The candles were lit at the Kargil War Memorial to pay tributes and all present filed past one by one offering floral tributes, led by Maj Gen Shamsher Singh, MVC. The Rally ended with the National Song.
