Kindly Request sir
Things are made easy for the retired personel thanks
This is good information. Civilians should not have the tag of defence if they…They should be assigned atleast 50% of the hardness in their jobs & responsibilities.
This could have also shown the amount being distributed on a specific month to various categories to get a clearer picture.
Is it correct that Defence civilians draw as much as 50% of the total pension distributed??
