About ERDC - INDIAN ARMY, NAVY, AF Android App

ERDC, Indian Army is bestowed with saga of valour, sacrifices and selfless dedication to duty by our brave Ex Servicemen fraternity, who has always stood tall and has lived up to the reputation of Naam, Namak aur Nishan. It is therefore, our moral responsibility to provide them all assistance and comfort what they deserve. In light of this, it was felt that meaningful welfare can be achieved by constituting an organization at Ahmedabad Cantonment to streamline all resources and provide maximum assistance to all.

Ex-Servicemen Resource Development Centre (ERDC) was established in July 2013 with a vision to understand and assuage the grievances of our Ex Servicemen, Veer Naris, Widows and Dependents. It strives to provide a complete resettlement solution for re-employment in corporate sector and in government sector. It also coordinates and conducts various Skill Development and Self Employment programmes for our ESM, Veer Naris and Dependents.

Keeping pace with technology, the web portal of ERDC is designed to provide a single window platform to provide all important updates and developments pertaining to our Ex Servicemen fraternity. Its user friendly interface also facilitates information viewing of available employment options in various sectors.

New projects have also been initiated for rendering financial assistance to ESM and educational empowerment of Veer Naris. Project Milap provides necessary financial assistance to the deprived and financially unstable ESMs. Going further, Project Siksha Saheli aims at enhancing the education standards of young Veer Naris, as a true means of women empowerment.
