Haryana hikes pension for ex-servicemen

Captain Abhimanyu

In a bid to give relief to ex-servicemen in Haryana, the state government has decided to enhance the ignorable part of pension from Rs 4,000 to Rs 15,000 in the case of commissioned service officers and civil officers holding Group ‘A’ Posts.

Disclosing this, Finance Minister Captain Abhimanyu said on Wednesday that the state government has also approved the new pay fixation policy of re-employed military pensioners in the state. Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar has approved a proposal in this regard, he said.
Abhimanyu said in all cases where the pension is fully ignored, the initial pay on re-employment would be fixed as per entry pay in the revised pay level of the re-employed post applicable in the case of direct recruits appointed on or after 1 January 2016 as per Haryana Civil Services (Revised Pay) Rules, 2016.

He said in cases where the entire pension and pensionary benefits were not ignored for pay fixation, the initial basic pay on re-employment would be fixed at the same stage as the last basic pay drawn before retirement.

If there is no such stage in the re-employed post, the pay would be fixed at the stage next above of that pay, he added.
The new pay fixation policy of re-employed military pensioners would be solely governed by Haryana Civil Services (Revised Pay) Rules, 2016, Abhimanyu said.
