GRANT OF PENSION TO HONORARY OFFICERS





GRANT OF PENSION TO HONORARY OFFICERS

1.            The JCOs granted Honorary Ranks in the three services are considered as part of the other Ranks.  Their pensionary matters are accordingly decided at par with Other Ranks including implementation of the Sixth Central Pay Commission recommendations.  A committee was constituted under Cabinet Secretary to consider ‘One Rank One Pension’.

2.            The committee while not recommending grant of ‘One Rank One Pension’ to Pre 01.01.06 retired Other Ranks, made recommendations for grant of higher pension to Pre 01.01.06 retired Other Ranks.  However, in the order issued for implementation of the above recommendations vide MoD OM No.PC 10(1)/2009-D (Pen/Pol) dated 08 Mar 2010, the benefit has not been extended to the Pre 01.01.06 retired Honorary Ranks.

3.            The courts have decided in favour of the Pre 01.01.06 Honorary Ranks in a number of cases and directed upward revision of pension to them at par with Other ranks in terms of MoD letter No.PC 10(1)/2009-D(Pen/Pol) dated 08 Mar 2010.  However, benefits of these orders are being granted only to the petitioners and are not being extended to other similarly placed personnel.

  3. KINDLY NOTE THAT HONORARY COMMISSIONED OFFICERS WILL GET ENHANCED PENSION AS ND WHEN THE LETTER IS ISSUED BY THE MOD >NO QUESTION OF SOME GETTING AND SOME DEPRIVED JUST BECAUSE THEY DID NOT GO TO AFT/COURTS>
