14 march rally at Jantar Mantar

Lt Gen Raj Kadyan



Dear Colleagues,
The Jantar Mantar rally was attended by approximately 2000 ESM and families today. Participants had come from many parts of the country. All compliments to the members of the Governing Body who had done meticulous planning and preparations. Every aspect was thoroughly buttoned up and 35 members took their turn at the mike to give vent to their feelings.
A memorandum signed in blood by 6,000 members and addressed to the President was handed over to the Rashtrapati Bhawan. 5,000 medals were also deposited by ESM. It had been decided to hand over the medals personally to the Supreme Commander. The Rashtrapati Bhawan had been informed accordingly. Unfortunately the Supreme Commander did not make it convenient to receive the medals in person. In accordance with the plan and as already decided the team did not hand over the medals to the staff and brought these back.
A similar rally was also organized at Bangalore by Colonel Rajan, our indefatigable member. The memorandum in blood was signed by 150 ESM (at Bangalore).
Best regards,
Lt Gen (Emeritus) Raj Kadyan, PVSM, AVSM, VSM
Chairman IESM
