New delhi date. Thursday 16 July 2020

According to the new rule, the Armed Forces personnel who have served for less than 10 years will also get a pension. The Ministry of Defense said that pensions have also been sanctioned to those personnel of the Armed Forces who have served for less than 10 years.

Actually those who have served less than 10 years are not eligible for pension. The government has so far given pension benefits only to those who have completed 10 years of service. Which for any reason were declared invalid for further military service.

The defense ministry said the government has decided to provide pensions to soldiers who have served in the armed forces for less than ten years. Who have not been able to continue their service due to injury or mental retardation. The Defense Ministry has approved the proposal. It is further announced that the benefit of this service will be available to all those who were in service on or after January 4, 2019.
