Why soldiers get 50% Pension

[Bhadra]

I would say that the pension should be given according to his or her Service Record . Either he was deployed for C.S operation, or for any other operation.But not for those Babus, Clerks, and those who spend their all term in Headquarters without knowing the ground situation.

and the CPMF should be treated equal to Army, and facilities should be equal.

Why this clamour for equal ? What is so equal about it ?

50 per cent resrvation... ?

A sociaj welfare force ? being mowed down by another social justice force - the Maoists ?

60 years age of retirement... ?

weilding a dunda to beat up the unprotected and unarmed civilians?

Insurance & pension both need to go up to maintain self esteem & pride post retirement.

Insure a soldier for 1 Crore and a others proportionately scaled up.

Have to hurry, some urgent work will elaborate the funding & calculations later

 

[Eastman]

We need US style Healthcare system medicare and medicaid would be a great idea if practical in Indian scenario.

Who told you that they are demanding 50% reservation, they have just demanded 5% for their children.
They are not social welfare force & not even the bloody maoist.
The age limit should not be increases, because we want fit army men not gatekeepers.

and the last thing every Army person treats theselves equal to civilians, yes their are some ------- (mostly officers) who treat others lower . so can't blame everybody for that .....

That system may not suits us because They created the system according to themselves & they can afford it .
Here we need a different system compatible with our economy, our environment, our soldiers, our budget, our pharma sector etc etc.

Nobody treats anyone lower.

It is just because the military leads a disciplined life to include their social activities, others think that they are not upto the military's standards and that the military is being uppity and not lowering their standards to be with their other's ways.

In the 7th pay commission enhance a Jawan,s pay & set aside Rs1000/- PM to be paid by the jawan as premium for BC insurance.

12000( PA) x 11,000,00 ( troops) = 132,00,000,000 : Rs 1320 Crores ( one thousand three hundred and twenty crores ) per year as corpus.

If the Govt adds the same amount to the kitty, the corpus becomes 2640 crores.

Considering the fatal BC pattern over the last 40 years and yearly projections because of Fd firing / Insurgency / Firing on LoC etc, the casualty figures are below 350 personnel.

A sum of Rs One crore can easily be given to the NOK of a BC.

After 20 years ( on average) service , a Jawan would have contributed Rs 2,40,000 /- to the kitty in actuals, properly invested this can yield returns compounded to Rs 25,00,000/-.

If a person is a fatal casualty, his NOK should get one crore if he retires with pension then he gets 25,00,000 as insurance bonus. Pension & other benefits continue as hitherto fore.

You have not understood...

The CPMF:

50%0 per cent reservations
60 years to retire..
Reservation in promotions..

It is a social welfare force...

Is not it...

Sorry, I did not get this.

My notion is: Doctors in India are held in the highest esteem, next to God. Everyone, no matter how highly-placed in the power hierarchy, owes it to them in some way or the other, so they are direct beneficiaries of this patronage. They are member of influential clubs & move along with "movers & shakers" of the system.

Held in high esteem, but one of the most neglected in India, and hardly any debate on the issue. At least the concerns of people in Armed Forces get debated in India, but when a doctor speaks out, pops comes the point of morality and everything gets brushed under the carpet.

I have a question do Armed forces personal taxed under income tax and if yes then how much?

Army personnel are not equal to anyone in the civvy street Because of :-
Service conditions
Separation from families
Risk Factor
Dual law ( Army Act + Indian Penal Code)
Diversity of terrain / altitude & living conditions
Comparative retirement at younger age ( bulk of officers retire at 54 yrs & jawans at 35 yrs)

A nation can show gratitude by sending the right signals.

Mind you serving the Army / Defence Forces is " hatke" ( different) one has to experience it to know.

Any one can join the civvy street but for the forces one has to get selected through a rigorous process.

Same as any other person with the same income except special allowances like :-

Siachen
Insurgency
High Altitude etc
