GaviniVN: Dear all vet brothers. Good evening and wishing all happy times ahead. Despite Delhi election hallagulla, Maha Dharna of IESM had had its effect and the DM had announced the timeline for OROP. Click http://ex-servicemenwelfare.blogspot.in/2015/02/blog-post.html  Thanks.

SK Singh: posted a selfy video on my face book page.  https://www.facebook.com/santoshkumar.singh.3348

HFO BLKalra: I too joined the rally & was sitting in the middle of second row of chairs. Main Points are :-

Maj Gen Satbir Singh alongwith 25 delegates from IESM including 4 Veer Naris of Jawans met D/M at 1100 hrs. COAS too was present. D/M assured that all calculations will be worked out & sent to F/M on 16/17-2-2015 & will be received back before 28-2-2015. Please note these two dates specially given by Gen Satbir. D/M also permitted Gen Satbir to announce THESE DATES in the rally. Some other issues too were discussed with D/M & the D/M assured Gen Satbir that D/M will look into it. They are enhanced pension to Veer Naris from 1.7.2009. Broad-banding of disability pension. In sum total, the rally was complete success even beyond my imagination. Do pardon me for saying that it was a slap on the face of SANJHA MORCHA. & those who were opposing the rally. It was attended by about 15 different ESM from different districts of Haryana, Panjab, UP, Utrakhund, dowwnsouth TAMILNADU, Tri-city (Chandigarh- Panchkula-Mohali) the last (Mohali)is the HQ of Sanjha Morcha. I am available on this blog for any querry on the rally. My rough estimate of the strengh is 5-7 thousands well attended by Officers too. One more point. One Col Multani too addressed the rally. He said how our Jawans/JCOs are cheated by our own community. He said that Rs.2308/was MSP recommended for JCOs/Jawans by 6 CPC which was reduced to Rs.1000/ but latter upgraded to 2000/. Col Multani also spoke a lot for the Jawans &JCOs. I congratulated Col Multani for raising his voice for Jawans/JCOs. I hope SK Singh will vouch for me.

SK Singh: My video is of his speech only. I went to congratulate him also. If you go to my face book page, you can listen the vedio about Col Multani speech. I have shooted it. Col Multani voiced the concern of PBOR as like being PBOR himself.

HFOBLKalra: Col Multani also wanted Jawans/JCOs to get time-bound promotions after every six years i.e Naik 6 Yr again Hav six yrs again Nb sub 6 yrs & so on. As SK Singh says "Listen to his Facebook .Pl.do that.

SK Singh: you are correct Kalra sir.

Hony.Lt Narsingh(IN): High lights for Maha Rally at Jantar Mantar on 01 Feb. Maj. Gen Jaini asked every body,who wanted to be part of Delegation for RM meeting. About 35 ESM including 4-5 veer Nari attended the meeting with RM. In the meeting COAS Gen.Dalbir Singh Suhag was also there. Out of Veer Nari I think two Veer Naris were from COAS village. RM started asking from Lowest Ranks about their Pensions. One of the family told that I can eat One Roti. instead of many but I can not see a Casual lady labour earning more than the Family Pensioner of a Jawan. It is really a sad Part

HFOBLKalra: With the efforts of Gen Satbir, Groupy Gandhi & all others, the OROP issue got so much heated up & Govt has to issue implementation letter soon. One thing more, as H/Lt Narsingh(IN) said the Veer Naris were just simple women looking like village folks & pathetic.
