APPEAL TO ALL 'X' GROUP VETERANS IN WP(C) NO.796/2023 OF HON'BLE SUPREME COURT

Dear Veterans, I am one of the 43 petitioners in WP (C) 796/2023 in Hon’ble Supreme Court which is posted for hearing on 05.01.2026. As already explained we are the people to file the case first in Hon’ble Supreme Court and the MoD has filed counter only in our case. All others filed cases tagging our case are tagged as connected matters which are still pending for some action. Since all the petitions are similar, what ever the decision taken by the Hon’ble Supreme Court, will be made applicable to connected matters. In this connection, all the Veterans are requested to support this case so that we are not losers. In case, our case is dismissed by not hiring an able senior advocate, we all are losers including the petitioners in connected matters. It is also seen that Secretary of some ‘X’ group has issued a misleading statement not to support us financially. All the Veterans can check the status of the case online, with link https://www.sci.gov.in/case-status-case-no/ and know the truth. Because of ego these people, our case was delayed, if it is decided otherwise, all these associations and the collection of huge funds are of no use. Therefore, we request all the ‘X’ group Veterans joined in any Association or Group to understand the issue and support for the cause. All the funds received will be utilised for the case in WP (C) 796/2023 only and it will be transparent.

APPEAL TO ALL 'X' GROUP VETERANS

Dear ‘X’Group Veterans, 

Everybody may be in knowledge of injustice done to Pre-2016 X-Group veterans in OROP-2 and OROP-3 by placing them in ‘Table-7’ and keeping post 2016 Veterans in ‘Table-8’ and started recovery from some  Pre 2016 X-group veterans as their Basic pension was more comparison to table 7.

In this connection myself Sgt.Susil Kumar Choudary (Retd.) along with other 42 members representing all States have filed a WP(C) 796/2023 in Hon’ble Supreme Court of India. Later on some other groups have also filed similar cases in the Hon’ble Supreme Court and they were tagged to our case, because of which hearing of our case was delayed and now it has come on the bench for hearing as Union of India has filed Counter affidavit. So far for all these hearings and adjournments, we have not collected any money from Veterans as I have friendship with Adv Amitesh Chandra Mishra who is heading ACM Legal and who is having sympathy with veterans and defence personnel and has brought this case to this stage without taking any charge. The next hearing of Our case is likely to be on 05.01.2026. 

Now it is do or die situation for all X-group veterans. Our legal team is suggesting for a Senior Counsel to appear in our case. We have chosen a Senior Counsel who is the best at Service Matters and  likely to charge about 2.2 lakhs for rejoinder draft vetting  and thereafter 3.5 lakhs for each appearance. The hearing may go up to 5 dates or may be decided in less hearings. Therefore, hearing cost may go around 20 lakhs in total. 

  Therefore, we request all the  ‘X’ Group Veterans to contribute generously for the noble cause and pay at least Rs.1000/-  in the following account number, which is chosen for the purpose of legal expenditure of this particular case. We the petitioners in the case have already decided to contribute Rs.5000/- each.   

Account Number - 465010110009039

Beneficiary Name - Air Force Association Muzaffarpur Chapter Bihar Branch 

Bank Name - Bank of India

Branch Name :- MUZAFFARPUR

IFSC Code :- BKID0004650

    It is brought to the notice of all X-group Veterans that  Decision against WP (C) 796/2003 will decide the petitions against all connected matters in the Supreme Court and any other lower Court including AFT. Therefore, all other petitioners’ groups are requested to support this case to avoid any adverse result to come out.

    It is also brought to the notice of all Veterans including ‘Y’ group that if the matter is decided otherwise, Govt may bring another cutoff date for all the Pensioners in the ensuing 8th Pay Commission. The recent amendment in Finance Bill brought changes in Pension Rules,1972 and the Govt has taken full authority to bifurcate the category of pensions based on date of retirement. So, this judgement is going to effect all Veterans irrespective of group X or Y. 

Regards

Sgt Sushil Kumar Choudhary (Retd.)
