Although AG's Branch has published a Booklet on Terminal Benefits on Retirement and to NOK on death death of Pensioner. How ever their own website still not updated in spite of my pleadings to a Senior Officer of the same branch. What you can expect when such an attitude prevails in our own house. May I request though your column to highlight it. Thanks.

There is too much of cut throatism and the rat race keeps you busy.The senior officers open up only after retirement and start giving expert suggestions but had done hardly much while in service when they even had the authority.Like a politician said fauji has No Vote and No Note(?) so why bother about them.In my opinion it is the middle level indivuals (even during service it is the same level which keeps the forces going ) who can perhaps do something.<br /> Best woshes to them.<br /> Gurdeep singh (retd)<br />Group captainAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1503293844377013031.post-35488325881303130452011-01-01T11:02:00.553+05:302011-01-01T11:02:00.553+05:30Why should anyone hear out a fauji in a democracy?...Why should anyone hear out a fauji in a democracy? Truly speaking - he is never been a part of it! We have been taught to stay away from politics. Don’t even talk about it! Hardly any fauji ever votes when he is serving and most often the habit continues when he retires. All he does is crib, crib, crib and crib – but do nothing about it!<br />If any one in our nation can get organized into a cohesive entity effectively, it is the Defence Forces – the culture, ethos and the goals are common. Yet, we remain divided by having so many Ex-Servicemen organisations each doing its bit on its own. Why can’t there be a single organisation to which every ex-serviceman automatically becomes a member immediately on his retirement. Why can’t it register itself as a Political Party. There are 17 lac ex-servicemen. Consider their close family members and close associates- the numbers would cross crores. Add to this the serving officers, then see the fun. Mobilise, fight elections and get things moving. Discipline, honesty, integrity are our USPs – the nation trusts its forces and would be too willing to lend all the support.<br />I wonder where are all the Retd General officers whom we swore by their leadership, especially the ex-chiefs? We hardly find any one of them leading from the front?Synapsenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1503293844377013031.post-14915320905289071832011-01-01T08:55:54.082+05:302011-01-01T08:55:54.082+05:30Dear Major Navdeep Sir,
