HELPING  A  85YRS OLD WIDOW OF HONY.LT AT HER DOOR STEP.

On our regular visits and interaction with veterans, we came to know that one widow of a Hony.Lt is bedridden and not knowing her eligible pension.

Name: smt.  Manonmani                              W/O Late Jeyaraj Thomas 

  Reg.No. JC3568………………………Hony. Lt.(  Sub-Maj)

Date of birth:   05-01-1928         PPO.No;    S/JN/8311/1994                            

PDA: Central bank of India,  Tirunelveli-dist Tamil Nadu.

Our Trust members made a surprise  visit to her house . The widow was surprised of  our visit and was delighted to see us, the Exwel Trust members. She is completely Immobile, bedridden, looked after by  her son.  On interaction, she recollected the good olden days in Srinagar.

On verifying the available records, PPO and the bank pass book, we noticed that she is being paid basic pension of Rs.7119/ as per CDA cir 397, the consolidated pension. And additional pension.  As on date her pension is  7119 + Addl pen 30% + DA.

Her pension was to be revised as per CDA cir 403, as rs.8100/ from 1-1-2006 and Rs.9279 from
24-9-2012 as per CDA cir   502..AND 510.

The poor lady was not aware of all these revision , and when we roughly calculated the arrears on the spot  it was a Lac plus. The widow was so much happy  and pleased with our useful visit  and sincerely thanked us by waving her both the hands from the bed  for this timely help in getting a large amount of arrears in this fag end of her life .

We contacted the PDA and  reported the non-revision of pension from 1-1-2006..

We also submitted the calculation of arrears on account of this revision  amounting to a Lac plus.. The Manager Mr.Augustine  was kind enough to accept our findings and submission and  agreed to arrange for revision and payment of arrears in the month of November 2013.

Our Trust is once again happy in helping one more widow pensioner, but for our intervention, this discrepancy might have gone unnoticed...

Dear veteran brothers, please try to find out  such innocent poor widows in your areas  and try to help them  or guide them to approach us.. You will have lot of satisfaction on this.
