The martyrs and the injured kin should continue to draw the last drawn salaries and thereafter the pension. Their children should be given free quality education, and hospitalization benefits, jobs etc. The war injuries. tend to be very severe and the government should take care of hospitalizxation. I once saw on TV army favility to care for paraplegics and such severely injured people. The injured should be taken care for life. There are 527 dead and another 1383 injured. The state and central governments should be able to provide funds. Think of the states give freebies in the form of pension, free housing, and various benefits for the undeserving for vote catching. That should be reduced drastically to support the servicemen.
