New Delhi, July 20 (ANI): Controller General of Defence Accounts (CGDA) Nand Kishore has recently launched a software project 'SANGAM' for defence pensioners.
Speaking on this occasion, Nand Kishore mentioned that the project 'SANGAM' will provide useful Management Information System (MIS) to the financial planners in the Ministry of Defence.
Project 'SANGAM' is a software which will facilitate issuance of corrigendum pension payment orders. This will address the demand from the ex-servicemen for issue of individual corrigendum pension payment order consequent to implementation of recommendations of Sixth Central Pay Commission (6th CPC).
This software project is one step forward from the project 'SUVIGYA' which was launched in October last year on the occasion of Defence Account Department Day and is very popular among defence pensioners.
The pension payment orders to be issued using 'SANGAM' software will be a special corrigendum pension payment system which will contain all the basic details of original pension payment order.
It will also have details of family pension, disability pension and any other type of pension available to a pensioner. The new corrigendum pension payment order is unique in the sense that it gives new ID to each pensioner which will be helpful in readily accessing all data relating to a pensioner.
There are about 18 lakh defence pensioners who will be benefitted with the launch of project 'SANGAM' in the long run. It will also help in grievance redressal of pensioners with regard to the correctness of payment of pension. (ANI)
