Description: More than 58,000 veterans did not receive their pensions for the month of April, prompting the Ministry of Defence (MoD) Wednesday to intervene and ensure the money was disbursed immediately. The issue came to light after several people, including many Generals, took to social media. The MoD said 58,275 veterans did not receive their pensions for April as they had failed to submit life certificates on the SPARSH platform, the cut-off date for which was March 31. These certificates, now mandatory, were supposed to be submitted by November 2021, but the date had been extended due to Covid-19. #veteranspensions #SPARSH #MoD #defence #pensions
