Honouring India’s Heroes: The Army Welfare Fund & My Abhinandan’s Noble Mission

The Army Welfare Fund Battle Casualties, a noble initiative launched by the Indian Army in 2016, stands as a ray of hope for the families of soldiers who make the ultimate sacrifice or sustain injuries while safeguarding our nation. This compassionate endeavor came into being following a heart-wrenching tragedy at Siachen, where ten valiant soldiers lost their lives to a relentless avalanche.

This remarkable fund warmly welcomes contributions from the general public and is meticulously administered by the Army Headquarters. Its noble mission is to provide essential support to the grieving families and dependents of battle casualties, covering vital provisions such as education, healthcare, housing, and other critical facilities.

The Army Welfare Fund & My Abhinandan’s Noble Mission

Setting itself apart from existing schemes for ex-servicemen and war widows, which are overseen by the Department of Ex-Servicemen Welfare within the Ministry of Defence, this fund has a specific focus. It extends its benevolence exclusively to the families of soldiers who have either been martyred or injured in the line of duty, excluding those who retire or meet their fate due to natural causes.

A noteworthy feature of this fund is its reliance on collective donations from organizations, institutions, and groups, rather than individual contributions, ensuring a collective commitment to the welfare of our heroes.

For those who wish to contribute directly to the Army Welfare Account, a dedicated bank account with Syndicate Bank in New Delhi serves as the conduit. The bank details are as follows:
