India News: NEW DELHI: Both serving and former bureaucrats said the amended pension rules, which make it mandatory for retired officers of intelligence and securi.
AS Dulat, who served in RAW and IB and later authored a couple of books, said, "Apply the rule for two years, five years, 10 years or even 20 years after retirement, but not forever."
General V.P. Malik, who was army chief during the Kargil War, said the amendment “requires a review” because it is “overarching”. A.S. Dulat said he will not apply for permission from the government and would rather write fiction.
