We had already published this article on 28-11-2012, The Disability element is revised as 50% (Rs.1755) but the War injured element is not effected so far.
We have taken up the case once again with record Office and PCDA, Allahabd for converting the Normal Disability to War injured pension.
Veteran T.Rajaram with our Liaison Officer Sgt.S.kanthiah.He is showing the artificial Leg .
GREAT
INJUSTICE TO ONE MORE WAR INJURED PENSIONER.
One
Ex.Ts.Nk came to our Trust office and complained that he was not being paid the
correct Rate of disability pension.
Name:Tirupathy
Rajaram Rank: Ts.Nk No: 6462218 Qly.Ser.:15 yrs.
PPO.Nos:
S/ 102256/1987 AND S/CORR/4263/2002.
PDA:
Central Bank of india, Kovilpatti, Tuticorin –Dist, TN.
On
going through the available papers, we noticed that he was wounded while on
duty in Proximity to the enemy due to mine blast on 1-3-1980 and it was
classified as Battle causality vide part II order No.73/15/1982
We
also came to know that his Right foot Below ankle was amputated and was using
artificial limb.
In
spite of all the above, he was sanctioned with normal Disability element of 50%
as attributable to military service.
He
is falling under Category E of para 4.1 of GOI, MOD letter No. 1 (2)/97/
D (Pen-C) dated 31-1-2001. Hence eligible for a WAR injury pension but being
sanctioned with normal disability pension.
It
is a great injustice meted out to a veteran.
The
innocent veteran was not aware of his eligibility and drawing his normal
disability that too not properly being paid. Instead of 1755 , he was
being paid 1404/-
We
have now taken up the matter with MRC Record office and PCDA for
consideration.
The poor veteran was
very much pleased with our findings and action and expressed his sincere
gratitude to our Welfare Trust for this timely help.
