Congress (I) has highlighted that UPA government under the Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and UPA Chairperson Sonia Gandhi have given a steep hike in the salaries of serving soldiers and pensions of Ex-Servicemen by UPA 1 and UPA 2. Congress (I) President Sonia Gandhi has stressed that no government before had done so much for the welfare of serving soldiers and Ex-Servicemen as Congress (I) had done. Congress (I) has pointed out that that the standard of living of both serving soldiers and Ex-Servicemen has risen very substantially after the UPA government came to power. The primary reason for this is the steep hike in the salaries of serving soldiers which has gone up nearly 2/3 times after the 6th pay commission of 2006. As a result steep pay hike of soldiers, their pension has also taken a big jump, said Congress (I). Now ex-servicemen feel comfortable once they are return home after completing their military service with colors, said Congress (I).
