AGGRIEVED HONORARY OFFICERS

THE ANGUISHED HONY.FLT.LT.M.PACKIA NATARAJAN AND
HONY.CAPT. ARTHUR PAUL FRANCIS.

Hony.Officers ranks are granted to JCOs in recognition of their meritorious services in deferent fields of their works. The Rank attracts the financial benefits . They are considered as Regular officers for all the purposes in respect of discharging duties.

But they are not allowed to avail the Officers Mess facility and also SNCOs Mess. They are treated as a separate Lot, that is a step motherly treatment. Because of the monitory benefits, they accept the Hony.Ranks, but they are not happy.

In ECHS also they are given only SEMI private ward and not private ward and considered as JCOs only..

Now, the VI th Pay commission has brought them in to Pay Band 3 in line with Regular Officers Pay Band. Their pension is calculated in the Minimum of the Pay Band . That is calculated as under :

For Example : Hony.Captain and equal Ranks in Navy and Air Force : Pay Band-3

BP + Grade Pay + MSP ----- 156000+6100+6000=27700

Pension for 28 yrs and above service is 50% , i.e= 27700/2=13850 Presently being paid.

But ,if they are considered in the Notional fixation like other JCOs, then the calculation is as follows:

Their existing Pay ( V th PC)….10850 -Notional fixation is -multiplied by 1.86, i.e

10850X 1.86=20190 plus GP +MSP will be = 20190+6100+6000= 32290

Pension for 28yrs and above service will be -50% of 32290=16145/-

Look at the difference ..16145- 13850= 2295 per month in the Basic pension alone + DA.

In the same manner for Hony.Lt and equal Ranks in Navy and Air Force:

Difference will be- 15465- 13500=1965 plus DA.

What is the use by treating them as regular Officers, when they are not allowed in the Officers Mess and not providing private Ward in ECHS, and getting less pension. All the Hony.Officers are anguished in this regard and it seems that there is nobody to take their case including our Major Ex-Servicemen Associations . It is a pitiable situation for the Honorary Officers.

    Dear Sir,

    It is really a great injustice to these highly dedicated Hon. officers. Let them all join together file a case in AFT like the Majors. They are waiting for some Regular Officers to take up their case. (I don't think any regular officer will come up for their rescue) Even the Sepoys are approaching the Supreme Court for small amount of Disability pension. One Hon.Capt.David is taking all efforts from Area HQ. Chennai. All Hon. officers please co-operate with him.

    I think the AHQ/GOI should issue a clarification on this matter so that the aggrieved Hony Commissioned Officers' are addressed once & for all.

    we are not apposing to vco offices for their financial pension benefits. They should be granted with this benefit. But The calculation method of 1.86 should be applied for Hony LTs and Hony Capts also. Problem will automatically solve no need to go to the court and elsewhere
