Dear Colleagues,
No details are still known of the government response to the ESM demand of OROP. Many calls are being received from ESM in different parts of the country, both for query and expression of resolve to continue the efforts till OROP demand is met.
Best regards,
Lt Gen (Emeritus) Raj Kadyan, PVSM, AVSM, VSM
Chairman IESM
Media Reports on OROP
It is evident that the Committee of Secretaries assigned to bridge the Pension Anomalies will not do justice to the ESM demands for Pension Parity. The outcome of the study is summarised as under:
"Though holding that full OROP is neither financially nor administratively possible, the government promises to resolve the existing anomalies in the pension structures of ex-servicemen which have been accentuated by the 6th Pay Commission."
This a plot and a ploy deployed by bureaucrats to confuse the Nation and the Politicians. The ESM demands are not for "arrears" which has been inflated to Rs 4000 crores by the bureaucrats but for "OROP". Therefore, it will be only an additional expenditure of Rs 1000 crores envisaged for grant of OROP, which will be well within the flexible inflationary budget. Excuse of "administratively impossible" is not tenable excuse in the digital world of today!
The bureaucrats attempting to confuse the issues must be fought tooth and nail by all ESM Welfare Organisations and exposed at all levels. Does the Government and Bureaucrats want all Ex Servicemen to go begging after every pay Commission for Pension Parity? This Pension Parity must be done automatically! Pension Parity implies upholding the honour and dignity of every defence personnel who has ensured the safety and integrity of the Nation. Does he deserve less?
