Defence personnel discharged on own request and joined in Banks forego every benefit if their
ReplyDeleteservice in defence is less than 15 years as per
existing rules.They get neither defence pension
nor weightage in bank pension for the service
rendered in armed forces.The demand for counting
the valuable service rendered in Army for bank
pension calculation will be a beacon of light to
the future of pensioners who served the nation
at their young age which is nothing but a sacrifice that is forgotten by many.I congratulate everybody those highlighted the point and framed in charter of demands for 10th
BPS.For God grace,if the demand get approved,most of the exservice men group be bene
fitted .Benefit should be effected to past retirees also as their number would be meagre.
