Dear veterans,
We all know that, there is MOU between MOD and Banks for certain benefits for Defence serving and retired personnel. Accordingly, most our veterans have converted their Normal Saving Bank account to DSP
Now, we understand that, there is difference between DSP and DPA. DSP for serving and DPA for retired personnel.
The rule says that, in DSP a/c , if the salary is not credited consecutively for three months, the benefit will be cancelled automatically. After discharge, there will be no SALARY credit, For pensioner, there will be only Pension credit.,. Hence, the DSP account will be automatically cancelled. one should have DEFENCE PENSION ACCOUNT instead of DSP a/c to get the benefits.
or
PLEASE CHECK UP IN THE PASS BOOK, IF THE TYPE OF A/C IS MENTIONED
AS DSP-PEN A/C IT IS OK.
A case had been noticed that, one Subedar , retired from service with DSP account and dies with an Accident, after say one year after discharge. When his wife claimed for the insurance benefit, the Authorities rejected the claim stating that, the pensioner was not having DEFENCE PENSION ACCOUNT (DPA) . He was having only Salary a/c ,and there was no Salary credit, the claim is rejected. So this is the position.
In view of the above case study, our Defence pensioners are requested to convert their existing Normal SB account to DPA- Defence Pension Account / DSP-PEN a/c instead of DSP a/c to get the Insurance and other benefits.
All our veterans are requested to note same and pass on this important message to other veterans in their areas.

VERY USEFUL MESSAGE FROM OUR DEFENCE MINISTER
A glad news that our Defence Minister Mr. RAJNATH SINGH has approved 100% increase in
Penury Grant, Marriage Grant and Education grant for ESM community.
This is effective from 01-11-2025.

DISCREPANCY REGARDING LTA CERTIFICATE.
As per procedure, after death of a pensioner, if there is no PPO in her favour, the widow has to apply for family pension and receive the claim forms from respective Record office.
One of the Documents is LTA- (Life Time Arrears) certificate, which is to be issued by PDA of the deceased pensioner. Bur, in practice, the PDAs insist the claimant to get it filled. The claimant approaches some ESM or Associations. Again. Some PDA wants proof of the Rate of pension mentioned in the LTA form. Actually, this is the duty of PDA, the last Payment particulars is available with them, but they insist to get it filled , this is unfortunate.
On coming to know this happenings, and delay due to non acceptance of LTA, the PCDA had issued 2 Circulars, Cir 389 and 476 where by, the claimant can submit a Declaration-in the form of Affidavit/Indemnity bond in lieu of LTA, witnessed by 2 Ex-Servicemen..
But still, some Banks/ ROs insist for LTA only which is not reasonable. In view of this rejection, PCDA has again issued one more circular 656 dated 10-01-2022 repeating/ reminding the same circulars to accept the DECLARATION in Lieu Of LTA.
Here, respective ROs may view the genuineness of case and accept the Declaration in lieu of LTA. Thus the hardship to the widow/ claimant may be avoided and family pensioned sanctioned without delay.
Our ESM associations and senior veterans may guide the claimants suitably in this regard.
