Delay in Implementation of OROP
The policy of ‘One Rank One Pension (OROP)’ for the Armed Forces has been adopted by the Government to address the pension disparities. The modalities for implementation were discussed with various stakeholders and are presently under consideration of the Government. It will be implemented once the modalities are approved by the Government.This information was given by Minister of State for Defence Rao Inderjit Singh in a written reply to Shri Vivek Gupta in Rajya Sabha today.

Hang on….today’s news states that the babus are pushing the ESM organisations to accept a diluted variant of the OROP. Lets not start praising Modi till we study the report. Todays news also states that ESM org have outrightly rejected the diluted OROP. Our stand should be that the OROP which has been defined and agreed upon by earlier discussions should be passed; not some diluted variant. Jai Hind

Can we stop pleading & look for some better steps..? We are Soldiers not Beggars..?

sir,if government has promised it to give this one rank one pension to ex servicemen,they must fulfill their commitment,this is being promised by all previous various government for last 40 years,army works day and night for the country away from their homes,no link with their families/land/house/state for many months due to their service condition,this agitation is also affecting morale of serving soldiers as their counterparts are on hunger strike at jantar mantar,keeping in view all these happening/current situation,govt must announce one rank one pension to ex serviceman at the earliest and fulfill their promise,thanks

If OROP is not announced before 15/8/15. ESM should not participate in the 15th August parade or receive any honours. All seems to be fake declarations till date. The govt. is extending the dates to 7th pay commission. All rallies /discussions with govt. /all steps taken by Senior Veterans of ESM communities / hunger strikes by Senior ESM veterans makes no difference to this Govt.
We are wasting our time by demanding through the ways of hunger strikes and begging the govt. for implementing OROP.
“tarikh pe tarikh” is the slogan of this govt. Are they not capable of giving a deadline. Please remember and take for granted that the results are for sure but will be definitely linked with political patch-up. Our leaders don’t give returns without interest.
AG says
UFESM should not go for rail roko, JM hunger strike until death or Bihar poll political agenda rather they should go for country wide satyagraha in front of all Recruiting centers and completely stop recruitment for Jawans as well as officers in military academy in India if OROP is not implemented on 15 th August 2015.Then modalities of modi government will be at stake and his jigri dost who came for his oath cceremony to become PM ; Mr. Nawaz Shariff will not take few seconds to teach him the real meaning of the bloody MODALITIES.
Bijayakumar jena says
Mr Rao Inderjit is a cheap man.He is a midator between govt and esm community to establish the credible of modi govt and of his own. Earlier UPA II he also seen in the same role. He is nothing to do or he can. Only the statement of modi govt , it will be implemented once the modalities ………….Thats enough for Mr Rao……….. Jai Hind
DD NAIR says
Actually, OROP is not a political issue, but the different political parties wanted to make the issue as a political one or VOTE BANK. But they don’t know that the morale of even serving soldiers are also going down every day because of this issue. The whole country should support the implementation of OROP at the earliest as it is directly connected to the life of our VEER JAWANS & WAR WIDOWS who spent their life for the mighty of our mother land. I don’t think that the family pension of a war widow is more than 7000-8000. How the poor guys will manage their life & the education of their children.
Binay Pradhan says
Every words are fake and the word being spoken by them as “modalities” are just something to overcome the pressure applied on them if it has to be given it would have been given earlier…….so expecting this is just waste of time…..

Govt is not interest to implement OROP. Specially FM, DM,&PM. Bhagavan bharose pe jeena padraha hai.
col(retd) dk bhardwaj says
1. When the Military gets orders from govt to implement a task, the world’s most professional Indian Armed Forces mobilise themselves within 4 hrs and accomplish assigned task to the full satisfaction of the nation.
2. Why then the present govt playing games with the veterans chanting recorded story for the last 15 months :” OROP accepted in principle. modalities bng worked out.”
3. Mr PM. dont teach wrong lessons to innocent “faujis” to say ‘we have accepted task in principle, modalities r bng worked out, task will b done once modalities completed’.
4. Now enough of fooling. give orop by 15/8 or face our virodh.
p. thiagarajan says
it is going to be a real independence day if the OROP is implemented before 15th August.
RM Suresh says
Govt has adopted OROP, because it is the child of ex-servicemen. Step motherly treatment continues towards the adopted child (OROP) since then.
RS Manjunath says
Ham honge kamiyab ek din. Let us not give up fight till OROP is achieved.
B.SENGUPTA says
I am an ex Sgt retired from the IAF after completion of 15 yrs and 8 mnths of regular service. Presently my basic pension is Rs.6513/-. What shall be
my new pension after implimentation of the OROP policy ( of course if implemented ) ? Kindly confirm. Thanx.
JOHN SAMUEL says
Modalities stops OROP? What is modalities? Modi ‘s Assurance Likely Irritating Tendencies of Indian Ex-servicemen’s Scheme.
So, it is never going to be adopted. The smart Tea Seller in Rly Station is promoted to Prime Position not going to remove the irritations of the veterans of India.
H R Singha says
Ex Service man ka MAN KI BAAT OROP kab
adarsh kumar mishra says
High time for the serving defence personnel to revolt and come in support of ESM now for OROP, as they too will be ex-serviceman in near future. Enough from government, as per government modalities will never be sorted out and no OROP, at least in leftover four years of BJP, only assurances and man ki baat for the last one and half years
Major AM Manohar says
The IESM is responsible to the ESM and their demands were projected by them. They are the stake holders and none of the happenings in the RM/FM decisions/discussions were conveyed to the IESM. Any more delay will cost the government dearly. Just imagine a regiment of men with more veteran parents get out of control agitating in support of veterans and that will start a chain reaction across the Armed Forces, ultimately it may result in a mutiny leading into the fall of the government for the first time in free India. For different reasons the British expeienced similar mutiny by the Sepoys in the pre independence era.

dear sir,
MODI is not interested in the implementation of OROP though it is his primary pre poll promises. he does not appear to be having guilty conscience of deceiving the old veterans sitting on relay hunger strike to get their demand fulfilled. before ceasing his last breath, what abdul kalam did? He saw a soldier who kept standing all along the route in northern sector for more than six hours, his heart bleeded, he tried to contact the soldier but failed due to heavy interference in the radio net work to ask him to sit and take rest, on reaching the destination the faithful guard{GOD} was commended and kalam asked him do not you feel tired because you stood all the way in the protection of me what the guard reply was? sir for the sake of your physical security I can stand the whole day though he has been denied the rightful demand of OROP , still my soldier is duty conscious. it is my country we soldier should not indulge in wrong doing our behaviour should be exemplary people are in support us. the delay is on account of mr jaitley because he was defeated by ex soldier, MODI appears to take dictation from jaitley, mr parikkar he does not know chart of time, how many days a week, month or year,even BJP may take one light year to fulfil the demand of OROP. What modi,s reaction maan ki bath not the feelings and sentiments of poor old soldier those who are sitting on hunger strike very pathetic scene
M.S.Verma says
We had great expectation from Modi thinking he is different. Alas, they are faces of the same coin. Had it been the question of raising the wages or allowances of the Politicians, this would have been long implemented.
ck radhakrishnan says
I think the minister has memorised these lines and is repeating it for the last 14 months without changing even one letter.For heavens sake please implement orop as defence personnel are living in penuary with paltry 3500 rs pension
VBS Shekharan says
Dear Veterans.. Why Forget..they are Politician..and its their job to Ditch..be it the Soldiers or the Common man tax Payers..they don’t give a damn.
joginder says
Modi government is telling lies nd down fall is beginning now every politician is faraud
KC BALI says
All ESM are eagerly waiting for the moment when OROP is announced and implemented by the Central Govt. But every now and then, the concerned minister gives the same old statement that its modalities have been discussed and are under consideration by the Govt.
Would someone tell as to when the Central Govt. will consider the decades old OROP?
Babu Ram says
Minister should take some treatment for memory improvement because for the last one year he is repeating the same statement and be fooling the ex serviceman.
AG says
Ram Sam what ever Would you please convince your God father crooked political so called GONO TRAN TRICK to extend all your home ministrial employees facilities including 56 years service terms etc included for ARMY NAVY AIRFORCE , then automatically you para forces will not be provocative by jealousness or best you compare and ask for facilities offer to IPS cadets.
Good luck and our general salute for your civil defense forces.
Shyamal Kumar Sarkar says
An appeal :
I like to ask Govt. OROP calculation is not a big matter, to solve this problem 40 years we have waited. I don’t think in our country mathematitian are less rather our thinking is very poor. Once retire defence personnel are on the road and all over world are looking on our activity our morality going down to them. We should think it positively and Govt should implement OROP as early as possible at least they should declare approximate date.
Thanks.
sam says
Why no OROP for paramilitary, whay are the always deprived of all defense benefits… Its not fair at all
INGALE BHIM KHANDERAO says
PLEASE GOVT GIVE ORDER FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF OROP IMDTLY.
