Some of the data presented is factually incorrect. It would do well to do better and more authentic research.
All at the cost of tax payer money
Yes….in 8th point stating an illogical fact is a disrespect to the martyrs itself….and the last point govt accomodation is not provided free, it may be at a lower price but each month money is cut from their salary if they take the accomodation…
wow
Good job
Most facts are wrong.
1. Firstly “personal buddy and performing tasks for their officers” is wrong.
2. Secondly the government accommodation is not free but charged to individual officers at the government rates set for the same. Also for your info the electricity, water and furniture charges are also paid for by the officers in addition to the house rent.
3. There is no provision for so called “respective jobs for dependents of martyrs” whatever you mean to convey with that.
4. There is no provision of “special marriage facility” as stated by you. If any such thing is done it is purely at personal level and not on organizational level.
5. The medical facility is not only for officers and their dependents but for all ranks of the army. However, the treatment is in armed forces hospitals and not in so called “top hospitals of the country” again whatever you meant by that. Also the for the provision of medical facility after retirement the Armed forces person are not extended that for free as you have tried to show rather they pay for it in form of something known as ECHS contribution. Please read about ECHS before writing anything on this.
Please don’t post such factually incorrect data to mislead people of the country. Do some research before you post such articles.
Absolutely agree with your comments. All misnomers, giving a wrong picture to the gullible.
All wrong inputs, infact factually incorrect, unfortunately gives a wrong picture of life in defence services, the gullible get lured and others think the everything is free for defence people. What a shame
Government would give the same facilities to police railways ias armed forces forests foreign service. Government wouldn’t be biased
