Dear Colleagues,

Retired Subedar Verma calls up from Faridabad complaining that the bank is not giving the 20% enhanced pension to those veterans above 80. He further complains that the DPDO at Red Fort tells the affected to approach their Record Offices. They need help.
A call from Veteran CPO Ramdev from Jhunjhunu speaks of harassment by the police of a Service widow. Help is needed.
A Veteran Sepoy Devinder calls up from a ECHS policlinic requesting intervention because having waited long to see the visiting Cardiologist, he is told that only up to token number 45 would be seen; he is 53.
And the list continues...problems ranging from individual to general.
It at least shows that the ESM have begun to have confidence in the IESM that their problems would be attended to. I do hope we measure up to their expectations.
Best regards,
Lt Gen (Emeritus) Raj Kadyan, PVSM, AVSM, VSM
Chairman IESM
