Dear Colleagues,
As you are aware the government has recently announced certain enhancement in disability pension. There have been some emails on the subject. Some affected colleagues have complained against the inadequacy of the new benefits. Some have even lamented that the IESM is not pursuing the case that is adversely affecting them. In some cases I have responded to individual members. However, I wish to use this forum to assure our ESM colleagues in receipt of disability pension that their cases, as also of those in receipt of family pension, gallantry award grants etc, are very much in the IESM charter, and will be pursued with all possible vigour at an appropriate time. As of now we are concentrating on OROP, which affects almost 100%, ESM population. Taking up too many issues simultaneously would diffuse the focus.

Dear Gen Raj Kadyan, all Office Bearers and Members of the Core Group, and Brig Kamboj,
Kind courtesy "Report My Signals", I have been following with interest the work carried out and progress achieved by the IESM from the very initial stage, not withstanding the hurdles on the way. Summarising my thoughts in two sentences, I have to say that:
1. You have all put in tremendous hard work for the common cause, and achieved remarkable progress in such a short time.
2. At each step on the way, you have taken the most appropriate decision, keeping in view the best interest of veterans (in one word, OROP).
May God bless your efforts and grant you success, so that the entire veteran community benefits.
Regards,
Lt Gen (Retd) Deepak Ajwani
