Swatantrata Sainik Samman Pension Scheme
The Swatantrata Sainik Samman Pension Scheme, revised on August 15, 2016, honors freedom fighters with enhanced benefits. Replacing the dearness relief system, the dearness allowance system ensures timely updates aligned with Central Government employees. Key benefits include free 2nd/3rd AC railway passes, CGHS medical facilities, and free accommodation at New Delhi’s State Bhawan. Dependents have a one-year window for pension application, and digital processes like the Jeevan Praman Portal simplify life certificate submissions. The scheme also introduced the KYFF/F form for accurate tracking and verification, reflecting the government’s commitment to the welfare of freedom fighters.
