My question is to the Prime Minister. Before the election the Prime Minister said it was not fair to apply the CPI to the pensions of those who had risked their lives for our country. The Prime Minister is now cutting the indexation arrangements for 84,202 war widow pensioners to CPI. Why did the Prime Minister break his promise to veterans and war widows?
