satish kumar sinha says
The proverb “The justice delay is justice denied”. This proveb fits with the implementation of OROP. This has become political jumla like black money. This is getting proved that neither black moneny will not brought back. nor one rank one pension will be implemented. As per the lasted no approval from current session of parliament in respect of orop has been saught. This statement was given by Defence Minister. Now no trust.

Mintu Dhar says
Sir,
Acording to me defence service should be continued up to 60 years in this way : Before the retirement/release Jawan/sailor/Airmen’s Job to be switched to the equivelant civil Job. In this way civil will be more civilised and will get the touch of dicipline. Otherwise Govt should strictly adhere the 5% Defence quota all around. If so, there will be no re-employment problem for 12 lacs Exservicemen(assumption) certainly.
If done so, Civilian will raise their protest stating the pain of unemployed youth. In that case, let all the civilian Govt employees retire after 15/20 yrs of their service compulsorily. Then there will be no unemployment problem throughout India.
After snatching the youth Govt.left us on the halfway with half stomach with small kids. We are humbling for food; How we will give higher study to our child. Most of the exservicemen are dying at 55 to 65 why? Statistics says due to depression of unemployment problem, no standard rehabilitation programme followed for ex-serviceman. I have requested for personal loan, they issued under Jai Jawan Sceme Rs. 1 lakh need to repay in 48 EMIcondition @ 14.5%interest. It is a common loan procedure for all (12 months salary) under Savings Bank A/C holder. Why the name is Jay Jawan Scheme ? No other loan is permissble for us, stating ” you not liable to get other loan, even home loan also.” You are not income tax payer. Simply, Govt should say we are not proper citizen, use and through Item then scrap at present.
Dev says
Soldiers in this country are last priority. In US, ENGLAND,FRANCE,CHINA and EVEN sick nation PAKISTAN they are FIRST PRIORITY. Deliberations a re nothing but denial. Ours are not the soldiers of nation but hapless silent audience in the hands of power that is. Every thing stinks and so badly?
Ashok Kumar Maurya says
All ex-servicemen are fully convinced that our Prime Minister is and was in favour of defence personnel. So, we should believe and wait for the best which is about to come in coming days.

The Government is repeating the same reply whenever asked for by MPs in Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha. The reply is an indication that Armed Forces veterans should keep quiet till a decision is taken by the Government on the issue. This is sorry state of affairs.
Sunilbhatia says
Instead of protest all should meet all important politicians in their area and press for implementation.U see all parties are in favour of implementation.these politicians at local level ultimately make ur voice reach the national leadership.that is how sucessful pressure groups work.
B. Sasidharan Nair says
Since last two years we are hearing that the modalities are going on with various department, it is not understood what kind of modalities they are doing. Why the delay in the case of ex-servicemen only. There is no modalities or delay in increasing the allowances of MPs and MLAs In the matter of soldier’s welfare both UPA and NDA are equal, no difference in their attitude towards veterans. The Politicians and the bureaucrats are not thinking that they are having good sleep in the night because of jawans wake up in the night.
Dilip says
Was it a crime committed by the soldiers who gave the full youth for the sake of nation and forced to leave service at an early age of 30 to 35 yrs,not allowing them to work till the retirement age like civilian? Why they should be made sufferer for rest of life? Please settle the issue at the earliest, otherwise people may not come forward to Join the Uniform services if this is the attitude of neglecting the ESM.Country sleep at night only due to the soldier wakes at night to safe guard the country. No Our Babus should think it , alternatively the Babus should be sent to perform the duties of soldiers at least of 1 year, by which they can realize the life of soldiers.
Narinder says
Same answer as was replied by defence state minister during last session of parliament.
