INJUSTICE TO RESERVIST/
EX-GRATIA PENSIONERS
Reservist pensioners, on
completion of 15 yrs ( colour and reserve) period are sanctioned with Reservist pension and not
service pension.
As per PENSION REGULATION
FOR ARMY- 1961 , rule 155, the Reservist
pensioners are eligible for pension
equal to 2/3 of the lowest
pension admissible to a Sepoy but in no
case , less than Rs.375 per month on completion of his term of engagement or prematurely, irrespective of period of
colour service..
As per this Rule, the
Minimum pension of a Sepoy as per
OROP is 6665 per month.
2/3 of this is 6665 =
4444
As per 7th
CPC………= 4444 X 2.57= 11422
But they are paid
with 9000 only., thus a short payment of
more than 2000 p.m
This is a great
INJUSTICE to Reservist.
We had represented many a
time, including to the anomaly
committee.
In the same way, the
Ex-Gratia pensioners also completed 15 yrs ( colour and reserve ) period. Due to opted for Lump sum amount
and later on refunded, they are
being paid with only 750+375= 1125 as basic
+ DA.
They are not eligible for
Fixed medical Allowance, and Additional pension after 80yrs of age.
No ECHS facility also.
This is also a great
INJUSTICE.
All our ESM
organizations are requested to view
this injustice and anomaly to Authorities where ever possible.
