Dear All Pension of the Armed Forces personnel has been the biggest casualty in most pay commissions. Little has been done to address the disadvantages of the “terms and Conditions of engagement” and the “retirement conditions”. A soldier retires healthier but dies younger than his counterparts is a testimony to this fact. In the pre independence era the pension of the Armed forces personnel ranged between 50 -100 % while that of his counterpart did not exceed 50%. It is a known fact that most Armed force personnel retire at a relatively young age. They find themselves out of job and the pension they get is quite inadequate considering the fact they have to shoulder burgeoning responsibilities. The problem is accentuated on the untimely demise of the pensioner. Towards this a study is being undertaken at College of Defence Management, Secunderabad for giving recommendation to the VII pay commission for enhancement of the pension.
