    Relief for ex-servicemen

    Kalyan Ray, New Delhi:
    After years of struggle, some relief has finally come for 12 lakh ex-servicemen on Monday when Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee announced rationalising the pension benefits of retired jawans and Junior Commissioned Officers (JCO) in accordance with their “One Rank One Pension” (OROP) demand.
    Despite demands from ex-servicemen, successive governments in the past had claimed that OROP was untenable and meeting it would cost a bomb. The anomaly was created by the Fifth and Sixth Pay Commissions. The Congress had promised OROP in its poll manifesto in 2004. However, the UPA government rejected the OROP demand in December 2008, after which ex-servicemen returned their gallantry medals to the President and made open overtures towards the BJP. Following protracted protests, a committee was set up under the chairmanship of Cabinet Secretary K M Chandrasekhar to review the OROP issues. Interestingly, it was announced ahead of the Parliamentary polls in Punjab, Haryana, Uttaranchal and Rajasthan, which contribute  thousands of soldiers to the three services.
    On the basis of the panel’s suggestion, the Centre has now agreed to substantially hike the pension of Personnel Below the Officer Rank (PBOR) and JCOs.
    The pension of PBOR and JCOs who retired before October 10, 1997, (implementation date for the Fifth Pay Commission recommendations) will be brought at par with the pension of those retired after that date.
    The pension of those retired before January 1, 2006 –– including the 1997 group –– will  be substantially hiked to come close to those who retired after the cut-off date of January 1, 2006 (implementation date for the Sixth Pay Commission).
    Once realised, the new pension scheme will lead to creation of two groups of pensioners in the armed forces with January 1, 2006, serving as the cut off date.
    “This is not OROP. Those who retired after January 1, 2006, will get higher pension. The government has just bridged a gap for the JCOs and PBORs,” Maj Gen Satbir Singh, vice chairman of the Indian Ex-Servicemen Movement told Deccan Herald. Both decisions would be implemented from July 1, 2009, resulting in enhanced pension for more than 12 lakh jawans and JCOs.

    2. Sir, Thanks for the information, but it seems to be already implemented vide PCDA Cir No 430, as the aspects of both are same. Or is it a new consideration/review by the Govt. THANKS By JC RANA

      ReplyDelete
    3. DEAR RANA
      1PCDA CIRCULAR NO 430 IS NOT OROP. e.g ALL HAV WILL HAVE SAME PENSION IRRESPECTIVE OF PRE OR POST, WHICH IS NOT THE CASE. A POST RETIREE LT COL[TS] IS GETTING MORE PENSION THAN PRE RETIREE MAJ GEN
      2. YOU WILL BE ASTONISHED THAT ALL PAY/PENSION FITMENT IS WRONG,GRADE PAY OF ALL IS WRONG,MSP OF ALL IS WRONG
      3. I HAVE TAKEN UP CASES & REPLY TO MY PETITION IS MOD IS GOING TO TAKE UP CASE BY CASE, AS THERE IS LONG LIST & ENORMOUS CALCULATION TAHT I KNOW AS I TOO HAVE SPENT LONG TIME FOR PREPARATION OF VARIOUS CASES
      4. SO FAR NO IMPLEMENTATION LETTER FOR OROP
      HAS BEEN ISSUED BY GOVT .
      WITH BEST WISHES

    4. Yes. It is different from Circular No . 430. It is OROP for PBOR & JCOs upto 01.01.2006 only. May be implemented now. And real OROP for all including Commissioned Officers will be granted before 2014 Election. You see, the present Govt. is in trouble and want to win in 2014. They can not win if they have not fulfilled their (UPA)own promise of OROP given in 2004.

    6. The Leveson Inquiry means the cloud is unlikely to scare the horses, let alone Ukip, Lord Howe said the United States and the United Kingdom.

      In a sign david cameron of progress on the issue. David Cameron half jokes about how he
      is a private guest of the prime minister's plan to renegotiate the UK's relationship with Europe worked while the rest of us are entitled to know.
