After serving 34 years as a Captain in the Indian Army, I was transferred to the pension establishment on March 1st, 2007. My initial pension was set at Rs. 14,775 per month, which I believe was incorrect. Based on my final salary of Rs. 32,290 (including basic pay, grade pay, and MSP), my monthly pension should have been Rs. 16,145. This discrepancy was rectified on September 23rd, 2012, and my pension was adjusted accordingly. However, I request that the correct pension of Rs. 16,145 be made applicable retroactively from March 1st, 2007.

Under Indian law, pensions are generally calculated based on final salary and service years. While you are entitled to the correct pension amount, retroactive payment for the period between March 1st, 2007 and September 23rd, 2012 may be subject to specific rules and timelines as per government regulations.

After serving 25 years in the MNS, I retired in September 2015. During my service, I faced health challenges. I was diagnosed with borderline diabetes and hypertension shortly after moving to Ambala. While my initial medical board recognized these conditions as aggravated by service and not due to obesity, my release board in Alwar granted me 40% disability. However, the final authority rejected this, citing non-compliance with rules. This decision feels unfair considering my years of dedicated service and the medical evidence.
