(Querist) 21 July 2014 This query is : Resolved 
BENEFITS for prior military service are duly certified by DPE,, allowed by Government of INDIA on the basis of recommendation of high level parliamentary committee
GOI Sanctioned for prior Military commissioned services rendered meritoriously with Honor, Dignity pride in National defense

the letter of authority on basis of which my requisition for grant of increment


560/43/TA-(a)/03/00/S(GS-1)
Government of India,
Ministry of Defense
, New Delhi, the 7th Jan 1994
To
The Chief Secretary to All State Governments/Union Territories .

Subject: Concession Incentives sanctioned by State Governments to Territorial Army personnel.

Sir,
This refers to Ministry of Defense letter No.47560/GS/TA/-3(a)/306-B/D(GS-VI) dated 19th February 1985 and letter of even number dated 8th September 1992 on the incentives by State Governments to Territorial Army personnel.

2. Most State Governments have instituted some cash awards/grants for the winners of Territorial Army decorations/Medals. However, these awards were instituted a long time back and have been rendered insignificant by inflation. In many States, this reward is limited to Rs.2500/1500 only. It is requested that this may be revised to a minimum of Rs.5000/- for TA decorations and Rs.3000/- for TA medals. Some State Governments have already made the revision.

3 Government of India had also recommended that the facilities listed below may be considered for Territorial Army personnel. These incentives were listed by a committee which was set up to go into the Territorial Army and are already being given by most State Governments :-
(a ) Grant of 01 increment for every 03 years Territorial Army service, as is being given by the Government of Uttar Pradesh.
(b) Counting of Territorial Army embodied service for purposes of seniority, promotion and other considerations to those entering civil services.
(c) Exemption of Road tax on vehicles owned by Territorial Army personnel as is being given by west Bengal Government. Yours faithfully,


Sd/xxxx-
(S.K. JAIN) Joint Secretary (G).

can \should SAIL grant me the increments within ambit & scope of above GOI letter
or
deny by quoting it is first such case
no precedence etc

WHEN THIS LETTER CONTINUES TO BE RESPECTED BY ALL MINISTRY

ON WHAT GROUND SAIL CAN REFUSE?




Guest (Expert) 21 July 2014
Have you applied to SAIL for extending the benefits, as per the referred letter of GOI? If yes, what is their response? If not better apply for the same by attaching a copy of the said letter. If the decision of the GOI has already been adopted by the Board of Directors, there would be no difficulty in getting the benefits for you.

Unless responded negatively by the organisation, there is no logic in assuming that the organisation would deny the benefits.

However, it would be better to check if any further revision has been made to upper linits by the GOI, as the values included in the letter have been depreciated to a large extent after passing of 19 years after issue of the letter by GOI.

Use RTI to extract information as to why the local management is not settling the case and when you should expect settlement of the case.
Lt COL R S shekhawat (Querist) 21 July 2014
sir

RTI is just a clerical reply

i tried it they initially replied

the matter is under consideration at corporate level

thereafter they reply
we had already appraised the complaint- vide our letter --- dated----
the same is disposed


further RTI on it

again

replied -- we have no comments to add as apprised to you wide our letter earlier

so rti is just documentary load to file with no fruits

that is the status after approaching all in chain of command vial letter via higher authority
personal approach to all concern in local management - ED & GM(P&A) etc

it is not ARMY
this is public sector u must understand is the comment by them

Guest (Expert) 21 July 2014
Dear Colonel,

Depends upon how effective were the contents of your RTI application to extract the information.

respected learned counsels

sir can this extract of RM & of 'Ex-Servicemen Resettlement Act'. be of any use to seek the additional increments for the services rendered in military prior to joining SAIL



1. Raksha Mantry 's letter No.2219/85/RM dated 23/03/85 17


These are some, though by no means all, of the areas which need immediate attention. While Defense Secretary is also addressing your Chief Secretary in the matter I trust that you will emphasize upon your administration the imperative need for tackling the recommendations of the High Level Committee with promptitude and sympathy



.SUMMMARY OF HIGH LEVEL COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS





Terms and Conditions of Service on Re-employment



15.19 Orders governing initial fixation of pay and other benefits on re-employment of ex-Servicemen pensioners and non-pensioners should be simplified and made uniformly applicable in all public employing agencies, including, Central/State Ministries/Departments and their subordinate organizations, as well as the Public Sector Undertakings and autonomous bodies under their administrative control. Suitable provisions should be embodied in the proposed 'Ex-Servicemen Resettlement Act'.



15.20 An Ex-Serviceman who is not in receipt of pension, should be permitted to count full military service up to five years and 50% of service beyond five years ,for grant of annual increment in initial fixation of pay on re-employment with effect from 25th January, 1983.





To settle about 3 lakh ex-servicemen now held on the live roster, it is recommended that special Ex-servicemen placement drives be undertaken by Ministries employing larger number of people. Railways, Posts and Telegraph and some Central Public Sector Undertakings like Coal India, ONGC, SAIL, BHEL and others should be able to absorb a large number in the immediate future. All these organizations should pool the vacancy arising in small offices at higher levels, e.g., Zones or Circles and the percentages of reservations of ex-servicemen of these totals should be filled up. The Directorate General Resettlement should be given three months advance information to arrange maximum number of suitable ex-servicemen for bulk recruitment at the appointed places. This will clear the backlog to some extent. Similarly, State Governments and Union Territories Administration should be addressed for similar special ex-servicemen recruitment drives to place ex-servicemen in State Government Undertakings against pooled vacancies.















Indicates that it was a case of reemployment

basis of their military service alone. Besides it cannot be denied that the appointment was by giving me the credit of past Military service but for the purpose of computing benefit of my prior Army service ,towards annual increment as per the recommendation of high level parliamentary committee is not being hared
