Let’s take a break from the boring stuff :-)
Col Vinod Awasthy, VSM, sends this in.
He runs a family vacation home in Shimla hills by the name of VEERGARH.
The place has independent suites and separate bedrooms and Col Awasthy offers a discount of 40% to service officers (on production of I-Card) on the already reasonable tariffs. You may like to visit the website www.veergarh.com
One request to Col Awasthy. He may like to examine the feasibility of including retired officers and their families under the 40% discount scheme.
And by the way, if you are driving down to Shimla, don’t forget to take a lunch break at the dhaba ‘Shan-e-Himachal’ at Dharampur - also run by a Colonel’s son.
Information on special discounts for faujis and their families is welcome.

In Ooty there is Ratan Tata Officers holiday home where armed forces personeel get substantial discounts.The room rent was only about 300/day during 2006.

"Thanks for showing interest in our Property Veergarh.The place where Veergarh is located is known as Shoghi and it is at 6000ft. which is less than proper Shimla.
The dicount that we are offering is to all serving as well as the retired officers across the board.
Hope to hear from you soon.

The rates of double bed room in ratan tata officers holiday home, ooty is Rs. 750 per day for serving armed forces officers. First u need to block a room and then forward advance amount. the room will be booked on your name. You can pay the remaining amount after reaching there!!!!!!!!
