Dear Colleagues,
In the last couple of weeks various proposed OROP tables have been doing the rounds of the net. The ESM who have produced these have been painstaking in their research and deserve our gratitude. The recommended figures in different tables vary. Something seems amiss. OROP is simply seeking equation of old pensions with the new ones. Rank-to-rank and service-to-service we should not ask for less than the new pensions and we cannot ask for more than these. Since the benchmark for the latter is already fixed and changing it is beyond our purview, it reduces OROP to a mere arithmetic equation that obviates the need for intricate tables.
The government decision is expected any time. There is a possibility that if the government does not sanction OROP in full, the issue will be raised in the Parliament.
Best regards,
Lt Gen (Emeritus) Raj Kadyan, PVSM, AVSM, VSM
Chairman IESM
Plank of Bureaucracy
To keep the ESM organisations in bitter battle amongst themselves the bureaucracy has invited Proposed Pension Tables from various ESM Organisations. What a waste of time! We just need to stick to Pension Parity, Uniform Rank based Pension for all Ranks or Absolute Parity in Pension. Let us not fall into the bureaucracy trappings.
