Pension Parity for Lt Gens for the Juniors OROP is a distant halo

One Rank One Pension Halo: Do you see it- Is it close or near?

One-rank, one-pension: To another question, Antony said the new pension scheme for defence personnel implemented by the government on the recommendation of a committee headed by the cabinet secretary is “almost near the goal of one-rank, one-pension.” It benefits not only the defence personnel below officer rank but also some commissioned officers and even the top generals, he said. The defence minister said the pension of the lieutenant generals has been revised after carving out a separate pay scale for them.

He said the government has agreed to set up a separate pay commission for the armed forces in the future and under the new scheme for personnel below officer rank, parity has been established for those who retired before and after October 10, 1997.
