    There appears a tendency of twisting the facts. The question is whether the JCOs (NB Sub, Sub and Sub Maj and equivalents) who retired prior to 2016 have been given a reasonable hike in CPC & subsequent 7th CPC or not . No, it is not. As far as JCOs (other than Honorary Commissioned JCOs) are concerned, there is strong feeling of having been ignored on these aspects. Authorities are giving twsting and confusing replies. That appears to be the main reason behind taking extreme step by a retired JCO who had 30 yrs service to his credit, at Capital. The anomaly should immediately be addressed properly.

    Armed Forces are the most dedicated services in our country.
    They must be paid at least at par with civilian employees. and at the same time .
    The confusion on disability pension is an unnecessary creation.
    The government should issue orders on disability element to be revised at par with civil employees without any delay ?
    Also additional old age pension on disability element should be given at
    par with civil employees .
    why Armed Forces personnel are the last to receive any benefits ?
