Early Times Report

Jammu, July 12: After approval of the Administrative Council (AC) on July 6, the Jammu and Kashmir Government on Tuesday issued an order to enhance ex-gratia relief for the next-of-kin (NoKs) of martyrs of J&K.
The General Administration Department (GAD) of J&K government on Tuesday issued an order No.823-JK(GAD) of 2022 dated 12.07.2022 to enhance ex-gratia relief to the NoKs of defence force personnel hailing from J&K, who attain martyrdom either inside or outside Jammu & Kashmir.
“Sanction is hereby accorded to the enhancement of ex-gratia relief from Rs. 5.00 lakh to Rs. 25.00 lakh out of UT budget and Rs. 5.00 lakh out of Security Related Expenditure (SRE) in favour of NoKs of those Defence Personnel hailing from J&K who attain martyrdom in the territorial jurisdiction of Union territory of Jammu & Kashmir”, the order reads. Earlier on July the Administrative Council, in its meeting held under the chairman of Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha, has approved the enhancement of ex-gratia relief to NoKs of defence force personnel, hailing from J-K, who attain martyrdom either in or outside J-K.
The Administrative Council approved the enhancement of ex-gratia relief from Rs 5 lakhs to Rs 25 lakhs in favour of NoK of those defence personnel who hail from J-K and attain martyrdom within the territorial jurisdiction of the UT of Jammu and Kashmir, an official statement read.
Similarly, the Administrative Council also sanctioned ex-gratia relief of Rs 25 lakh in favour of NoK of those Defence Personnel hailing from Jammu and Kashmir, who attain martyrdom in consequence of official duties outside J-K/ within the country.
These provisions will be made effective from February 1, 2022, and will remove the disparity between relief provisions in J-K and other States and UTs. The decision will also boost the morale of the soldiers who hail from J-K and are serving in adverse weather and terrain conditions.
