New Delhi : IAF chief Air Chief Marshal N.A.K. Browne Thursday inaugurated the Directorate of Air Veterans which would provide value-added services to both retiring as well as retired air warriors.
“It gives me great pleasure to dedicate the new Directorate to air warriors, who have contributed so much to the growth of the IAF (Indian Air Force),” Browne said after inaugurating the new facility.
“The directorate will provide value-added services to both our retiring as well as retired air warriors and coordinate all aspects, hitherto being handled by different directorates,” he said.
The new directorate aims to ease life for air veterans who now do not have to approach different agencies for their welfare and pensionary problems.
It will function under the Air Officer-in-Charge Administration headed by an air vice marshal.
