Defence Minister Rajnath Singh has approved the proposal to extend the period of retention of government accommodation by Battle Casualties from all the three Services.
About:
Families of Armed Forces personnel killed in action against enemy forces will now be able to retain government accommodation for one year. Earlier, this period was three months.
The provision will also be available for those martyred in enemy air attacks.
The government’s decision will not just boost the morale of the troops and their families but also came as a relief as shifting homes after losing a breadwinner can be extremely difficult.
