Hence, keeping in mind the fact that army personnel retire much earlier than civilians and considering their better livelihood and resettlement, a just and equal scheme had to be brought into place which propagated that officers in the same rank, serving the same number of years will receive the same pension irrespective of their retirement dates. For example, a Major who retired in 2000 after serving 15 years of service would get the same pension as another Major who has retired in 2020 after serving the same number of years in service.
