PROTEST BY IESM FOR GRANT OF OROP
MEDALS TO BE DEPOSITED WITH THE PRESIDENT OF INDIA
BETWEEN 1000H T0 1400H ON 14 MARCH 2010
AT JANTAR MANTAR NEW DELHI
Dear All
IESM has been spearheading the protest movement for grant of OROP and other welfare measures for ex-servicemen. IESM had established contact with many MsP and ministers in Oct/Nov 09 and asked them to raise questions in Parliament about the misleading statements of the Government. The questions were raised by BJP but the reply of the Government was not satisfactory.
Chairman of IESM had informed all ex-servicemen during the AGM on 13th Dec 09 that the Government is under tremendous pressure and has no reply to the novel method of protest of MEDAL SURRENDER adopted by the IESM. In view of above and the stand taken by the Government, IESM has decided to increase the pressure on the Government for grant of OROP. Next date for MEDAL SURRENDER has been fixed on 14 March 2010 (Sunday) from 1000h to 1400h at JANTAR MANTAR New Delhi. All ex-servicemen are requested to come on to JANTAR MANTAR on 14 March 2010 and deposit their medals for increasing pressure on the Govt.
IESM beseech all ex-servicemen to join hands in this novel method of protest and deposit maximum medals on this 14 March 2010 to the President of India. This will put unbearable pressure on the Government and force them to accept the demands of ex-servicemen. IESM is approaching ex-servicemen all over India and is planning to deposit medals in thousands on 14 March 2010.
It has also been decided that the veterans will put their signatures in blood on the memorandum. This memorandum will be presented by a delegation of IESM from all states to the President of India, Prime Minister and Defence Minister of India. All state conveners are therefore requested to urge the veterans that they voluntarily put the signatures with their blood on the memorandum. A copy of the memorandum is enclosed. All state conveners are requested to collect maximum medals from the veterans and send them through their representatives along with four copies of the memorandum signed in blood for presenting it to the Supreme commander of Armed Forces.
Travelling allowance for a group of two veterans from each state by train by AC 3 tier will be reimburesed by the IESM Hq. The representatives are requested to make their own arrangement of stay and travel in Delhi.
Please note that medal deposit and putting signature in blood on the memorandum is purely voluntary and state conveners are not to put any pressure on any veteran. However all veterans are requested to participate with full vigour and spirit in this novel method of protest.
LET US CONVERT HEAVE INTO A SHOVE AND FORCE THE GOVERNMENT TO ACCEPT OUR DEMANDS.
ALL EX-SERVICEMEN JOIN HANDS WITH IESM TO FORCE THE GOVT TO ACCEPT YOUR DEMANDS.
Regards
