IESM: Fast for Justice Rally- hundred and fifth day

Date: Tuesday, 31 March, 2009, 10:23 PM
Dear Colleagues,
The Jantar Mantar continues to remain active.
Media Coverage
Col Vikram Singh, who had anchored the Mathura visit Mar 29, called up to say that there has been extensive media coverage of the event. The worried Congress candidate there called him up on our remarks that:
1. No government leader has thus far come to Jantar Mantar to talk to us.
2. The President on 9 Mar 2009 told us that she had not been informed that we had already deposited the medals twice.
Best regards,
Lt Gen (Emeritus) Raj Kadyan, PVSM, AVSM, VSM
Chairman IESM

IESM: Letter from Chairman to Youngest Leader Rahul Gandhi

Lt Gen Raj Kadyan, PVSM, AVSM, VSM, Chairman
11 January 2009

Dear Mr Rahul Gandhi,
I write this on behalf of the Ex Servicemen of India. We have had some welfare related problems, mainly the ‘one rank one pension’ that have not been adequately addressed by the Government. Our repeated efforts to get a just and fair deal have not borne fruit. Frustrated at being stone-walled, the Ex Servicemen have been compelled to state their case in public forums. It is an unprecedented step forced on the disciplined community of over two million military pensioners. One fears that the problem of ‘one rank one pension’, if not addressed urgently, might have an adverse effect on the serving soldiers, who are all future pensioners. This would be an unfortunate development keeping in view the criticality of the role that the defence forces play in the security and integrity of the country.

The millions in India see you as the future leader. I, along with some of my colleagues would like to meet you and explain our problem to you in person. I shall be grateful if you could give us time as convenient to you.

With best regards,
Your sincerely,
Lt Gen Raj Kadyan

To: Mr Rahul Gandhi, MP, AICC Headquarters, 24 Akbar Road, New Delhi
