Dear Friends
1. Scanned copy of the following paper cuttings dated 05 Mar 2010 are enclosed.
(a) PM Claim on Army Pension False – Hindustan Times, New Delhi.
(b) PM Made False Claim on Army Pension- The Times of India New Delhi.
(c) Hindi Paper Dainik Jagran.
2. The manner our Hon’ble Prime Minister brushed aside the issue of Defence Personnel Pensions and misled the Parliament, the whole nation and specifically the Defence Veterans of India to say the least is “Mistreatment of Defence Forces”. Serious impropriety committed by the PM reveals the apathetic attitude of the Govt and is a betrayal to the soldier who has been the strongest pillar of Democracy.
3. We the veterans need to take our issues to the people of India and intensify our Movement to get justice.
With Kind Regards,
Jai Hind
Yours Sincerely,
Maj Gen (Retd) Satbir Singh, SM
Vice Chairman Indian Ex Servicemen Movement
