Cabinet approves encashment of accumulated
leave to certain Defence Services Personnel who died or were invalidated
out while in service between 30 December 1991 to 29 November 1999 with
less than 15 years of service
The Union Cabinet chaired by the Prime
Minister Shri Narendra Modi has approved leave encashment up to 180 days
in respect of those Defence personnel who died or were invalidated out
of service between 30.12.1991 to 29.11.1999 with less than 15 years of
service.
The decision will benefit the families of
9777 Officers and other personnel of Defence Services who died or were
invalidated out of service during this period. This period is very
significant as a large number of causalities took place during the
Kargil conflict (“Operation Vijay”) and in counter insurgency operation
in J&K and North East during the period.
