Govt to address pension issues of armed forces personnel

With a large number of officers and jawans approaching the Armed Forces Tribunal with pension- related grievances and complaints, Government today said it was working towards improving the situation.


Defence Minister A K Antony said in comparison with the civil pension structure, defence pension was "very complex" and a large number of complaints and grievances were there.

"There are so many instances of personnel-below officer ranks and very senior officers approaching the Armed Forces Tribunal against these grievances... this is not a happy situation," the Minister said while addressing the foundation day celebrations of the Department of Defence Accounts.

The Defence Minister said there was a need to further improve the situation and Government was working towards it.

"In last few years, the DAD has improved the system drastically and there are lesser number of complaints now but there is a scope of further improvement.
