Pay Commissions: Supreme Court upholds decision in favour of Major Generals

Dear Friends,
Jai Hind.
Another great news of the day.
The Major Generals and equivalents have finally won their pension case in the Supreme Court. The court has rejected the petition filed by the Government against the earlier decision by the Supreme Court in favour of the Major Generals and equivalents. This will now set precedence of OROP for All Ranks of the Armed Forces.

On behalf of All Veterans on behalf of Report My Signal, 'i' congratulate Maj Gen Suri and all other officers who were fighting the case. (It is a pity that very few Major Generals and equivalents contributed money towards the case and now all of them wish to take the benefit of the case. Similarly, some of us are fighting for OROP and all are sitting on fence to take benefit of it.)
Please see the email received from Maj Gen SC Suri, appended below. Email ID of Gen Suri-

Subject: Review petition - Sessions- Pre 96 Maj Gens & equivalent
Hi Chander,
As you are aware that the Supreme Court had given a judgment in favour of Pre 1.1.96 Maj Gens/ AVMs/RADMs. I am happy to inform you that the Supreme Court has now rejected the Govt Review Petition submitted to it against the judgment.
Hope fully the Govt will now implement the SC orders.
With best wishes & warm regards.
Maj Gen Satish Suri

Comment: The GOI should see the reading on the walls! Congratulations to Gen Suri and his dedicated team, for spearheading the campaign for Rank Based Pension for all ESM.
