COMMUTATION OF PENSION - WHETHER OR NOT
COMMUTATION OF PENSION - YES OR NO - VALUE
Whenever any retiring officer approaches us for advice, invariably the question of whether or not to commute the pension comes up. This article deals with this issue so that all officers, retired or retiring, would be able to make up their mind more knowledgeably.
Commutation is defined as giving up part or all of the pension payable from retirement in exchange for an immediate lump sum. Commutation factors (usually calculated by the Scheme Actuary) are used to determine the amount of pension which needs to be given up in order to provide the lump sum.

PENSION - EXPLAINED
HISTORY OF PENSION
Before 1-4-1927, the grant and audit of pension payments was the responsibility of respective pension sections of various Controllers of Military Accounts. From 1-4-1927, the pension work relating to Northern and Eastern Commands was centralised in the office of the Controller of Military Pension Accounts, Northern and Eastern Commands at Lahore. An office similar to the one at Lahore was also formed at Mhow a little later for dealing with all pension claims of Southern and Western Commands. With a view of securing uniformity of procedures. with regard to sanction and audit to pension, both the Central Pension Offices at Lahore and Mhow were subsequently amalgamated and located at Lahore only.

OLD ARREARS : WHY NOT BE PAID AT PRESENT
RUPEE VALUE BY INDEXATION
Since independence there have been numerous cases where the
government employees had been denied their rightful dues for some reason or the
other, compelling them to take legal recourse to get them after years of legal battles and counter battles. The net worth
of the arrears which, one may get paid after obtaining a favourable decision
from the Apex Court after years of delay is many times low due to inflation
over the period. The value loss thereby in the current real value of the arrears

HOW EAST PAKISTAN SURRENDERED - 1971
How east Pakistan surrendered BY Lt Gen JFR Jacob.
Though no war goes completely according to plan, this one went off
reasonably well, and on December 13, we were outside Dhaka.
The advance from the north went off well, and though the move of the
two brigades was delayed the paradrop took place as planned. By December 13, we
had about 3,000 troops outside Dhaka.
Meanwhile the American fleet was moving into the Straits of Malacca.
Some in Delhi were panicking. The radio signals we were intercepting from
Islamabad to the Pakistani forces in the east said "Fight on, you are getting
help from yellow (China) from the north, and white (America) from the
south."

Years ago when we
joined the Service, we were fed on the clichés like

They are to do or die!', or
How the six hundred of the cavalry charged into the enemy and each one of them died because they 'were dying for their country'. Many a poet was commissioned by the then masters to write poetry which would galvanize the young people in the Forces not to think about their own safety and feel pride in getting killed in the
