    Inspite of Govt.directive to intimate defence and defence civilian pensioner,the pension details credited in their account ln every month through sms in their registered mobile number,is not followed by most public sector banks.The authority is not compelling the banks to abide their instructions appears very dediculous.
    I am suffering with this problem and found no action of my complaint from the payee bank and their cppc. My bank is UCO Bank. After July 21 no records are available in my defence info app.
