On our Pension Mela conducted recently, we noticed that the undermentioned Sepoy was sanctioned Normal Disability pensio instead of War injury pension.
.
Name: R.Lakshmanan Reg.No: 2562391 Rank: Sepoy
Record Office: MRC Wellington PPO.No: S/C/24253/81 AND D/BC/ 1878/ 2001
PDA; I.O.B. Tenkasi, Tirunelvlei-District, Tamil Nadu.
During our interaction with the veteran, it is revealed that he received Bullet injury on 16-2-1971 during the Indo-Pak war on his left chest, passed through the back side, This is clearly mentioned in the Discharge Certificate.
But he is sanctioned with normal Disability pension of 40% and Service element. Though the PPO No, bears the D/ BC/ which is for a War injury pensioner, he is being sanctioned with normal disability pension which is a great injustice to the WAR INJURED soldier.
The veteran was not aware of this and we noticed in the Pension Mela. We have now taken up the case with the Record Office and the CDA for reconsidering the case. The matter is reported to I E S M also for action
The veteran sincerely thanked us for this timely help and a very important issue.
Dear veteran brethrens, please help such innocent Ex-Servicemen in your areas.
