Telangana Chief Secretary Assures Action on Ex-Servicemen Welfare Issues
A retired army officer who helps former soldiers met a very important government official.
His name is Brigadier NR Babu and he is the Director of the Department of Sainik Welfare.
He asked the official to start a new organisation called the Telangana Ex-Servicemen Corporation.
This organisation would help retired soldiers find jobs and get the support they need.
The official, Chief Secretary Sanjay Jaju, liked the idea.
He said the government should first study how other states run similar organisations.
Then they can make a good plan based on what they learn.
The officer also asked for a meeting with the Chief Minister.
The official promised to arrange that meeting soon.
This is good news for former soldiers in Telangana.
Brigadier NR Babu (retd), Director of the Department of Sainik Welfare, met Telangana Chief Secretary Sanjay Jaju on Friday.
Babu proposed establishing the Telangana Ex-Servicemen Corporation to promote welfare, employment, rehabilitation, and coordinated security services for ex-servicemen.
