Project 'SANGAM' for Defence Pensioners Launched

This software project is one step forward from the project 'SUVIGYA'
which was launched in October last year on the occasion of Defence
 Account Department Day and is very popular among defence pensioners.
The pension payment orders to be issued using 'SANGAM' software will
 be a special corrigendum pension payment system which will contain all
 the basic details of original pension payment order. It will also have details
 of family pension, disability pension and any other type of pension available
to a pensioner. The new corrigendum pension payment order is unique in the
 sense that it gives new ID to each pensioner which will be helpful in readily
 accessing all data relating to a pensioner.
There are about 18 lakh defence pensioners who will be benefitted with the
 launch of project 'SANGAM' in the long run. It will also help in grievance
 redressal of pensioners with regard to the correctness of payment of pension.
The software has been developed in house by a team of officers from IT wing
 of Controller General of Defence Accounts, headed by Shri Murli Krishnan,
Sr ACGDA (IT).

IAF Inaugurates Directorate of Air Veterans for Retired IAF Personnel

 The Chief of the Air Staff, Air Chief Marshal NAK Browne, inaugurated the Directorate of Air Veterans today. The Directorate would be committed to looking after the pensionary and welfare aspects of all retired Air Force personnel. Inaugurating the Directorate, the Air Chief said “It gives me great pleasure to dedicate the new Directorate to the Air Warriors, who have contributed so much to the growth of the IAF. The Directorate would provide value added services to both our retiring as well as retired air warriors and coordinate all aspects, hitherto being handled by different directorates”

The institution of Directorate of Air Veterans is an effort towards bringing under one roof, the various departments dealing with different aspects of Air Veterans, so that, the IAF veterans do not have to approach different agencies for their welfare and pensionary problems. This directorate will function under the Air Officer-in-Charge Administration (AOA), that would be headed by an Air Vice Marshal who looks after the responsibility of Assistant Chief of the Air Staff (Accounts) and would be re-designated as Assistant Chief of the Air Staff (Accounts and Air Veterans) henceforth.

To give focused attention to the needs of Air Veterans, this single window to approach IAF for assistance with respect to pensionary and welfare issues, will deal with various Civil Government departments on matters pertaining to Veterans of the IAF, so that issues affecting them are taken up in a consolidated manner effectively.

The Directorate will also operate through a website called ‘http://iafpensioners.gov.in’ for grievances related to pensionary aspects.
