MY DEAR FRIENDS, 

 MY HEARTY GREETINGS TO THE RETIREE FRATERNITY ON THE EVE OF PENSIONERS' DAY Ie. - 17th. DECEMBER. 

IN FACT, RETIRED DEFENCE PERSONNEL HAVE BEEN OUR "TORCHBEARERS " WHO FOUGHT RELENTLESSLY FOR THE CAUSE OF THE PENSIONERS AS A WHOLE. 

THE LEGEND CRUSADER COM. D S NAKARA WHO FOUGHT A LONG DRAWN LEGAL BATTLE IS ALSO FROM THE DEFENCE SERVICES…  

COM. D.S.NAKARA’S CASE HAS BECOME A “THUMB RULE” FOR MANY JUDGEMENTS PASSED BY THE APEX COURT IN MANY CASES CONCERNING THE PENSIONERS. 

THIS HISTORICAL JUDGMENT WAS PRONOUNCED ON 17th. DECEMBER, 1982 AND THIS IS THE REASON WHY 17th. DEC. IS CHOSEN AS “PENSIONER’ DAY” AND IS BEING OBSERVED BY VARIOUS PENSIONERS’ ORGANISATIONS IN INDIA.   

AS PER THE TIMES OF INDIA NEWS OF 04 FEB.1996, IT IS PLACED IN THE GUINNESS BOOK OF WORLD RECORD, AS , BY THIS JUDGMENT 20 LAKHS OF PENSIONERS BENEFITED (IT MAY BE EVEN ABOVE (70) SEVENTY LAKHS BY NOW)  

BY VIRTUE OF THIS FAMOUS JUDGEMENT ALONE, WE HAVE BEEN GETTING PENSION AS A MATTER OF RIGHT - BE IT OUR 1616-1684 DA CASE, RESTORATION OF 5 YEAR NOTIONAL SERVICE, 2ND. PENSION OPTION , PENSION TO THE RESIGNEES, 100/% DA, ARREARS ON COMMUTATION.. Etc.  

THAT APART...... (Click the for more details as to how the retired defence personnel fought back for the restoration of OROP.....)
