8th Pay Commission Governor House से निकला Letter, सेना का एतिहासिक बड़ा फैसला | #sainikwelfarenewscast

Welcome back to Sainik Welfare News, your most trusted platform for updates on defence, pay commission reforms, pensioners’ rights, and ex-servicemen welfare schemes.

In today’s episode, we bring you two major breaking developments — both of national importance for soldiers, ex-servicemen, and central government employees alike:

From the Army Commanders’ Conference in Jaisalmer, a historic proposal — to raise Agniveer retention from 25% to 75%.

From the Governor House, Assam Raj Bhavan, an official communication acknowledging the representation demand of Ex-Servicemen (ESM) in the 8th Central Pay Commission (8th CPC) process.

These are not isolated events — they represent the growing voice of India’s soldiers and veterans demanding fair recognition, stability, and parity across the pay and welfare framework.

Let’s break both stories down in detail.

Part 1 — Army Commanders’ Conference, Jaisalmer 2025: Historic Agniveer Reform Ahead
The Exclusive Report

According to an Indian Express exclusive — now confirmed by multiple national dailies — the Indian Army has tabled a proposal to raise the Agniveer retention rate from 25 percent to 75 percent.

This means:

For every batch of Agniveers completing four years of service, instead of only one-fourth being absorbed as regular soldiers, three-fourths (75 percent) could now continue in permanent service.

Why This Matters

First Agniveer batch is due to complete four-year tenure in 2026.

Earlier policy: only 25 % retention → mass release of trained youth → public unrest + resource wastage.

Proposed change ensures employment stability and better manpower continuity within the Army.

A huge morale boost: Agniveers finally see a long-term career path inside the uniform.

Enhancements to serving soldiers’ welfare, housing, education, and family support.

Integration of veterans’ experience into administrative and welfare systems such as
ECHS (Empanelled Health Scheme) and AWES (Army Welfare Education Society).

Broader reforms to retain talent, reward discipline, and reduce attrition.

Why 75% Retention Is Logical

It preserves trained manpower, saving crores in retraining costs.

Helps maintain unit cohesion and operational capability.

Encourages younger generation’s trust in Agnipath Scheme.

Offers government a balance — discipline + employment + national service.

This single change can transform the Agnipath Scheme into a long-term sustainable model — ensuring fairness and national stability.

Part 2 — 8th Pay Commission Update: Governor House Letter from Assam Raj Bhavan
Background

Parallel to the Army’s internal reforms, a major administrative development has come from Guwahati – Assam Raj Bhavan.
