DHQ Explains Delay in Soldiers' Feeding Allowance Due to System Glitch

The Defence Headquarters (DHQ) explained a delay in soldiers' feeding allowance, attributing it to a system glitch rather than deliberate withholding. The Director of Defence Media Operations clarified that the glitch in the bank system caused the delay, emphasizing soldiers' entitlement to the allowance.

This clarification followed complaints from deployed soldiers, particularly those involved in operations in Fasan Yamma in the North West and Whirl Stroke in the North Central region, who allegedly did not receive their ration cash allowance since August 2025.
