  2. This is a classic example of strategy of deception wherein the Power tells you what you want to hear concealing the realities of governance . We have given them what was desired and now wait for our turn in the long line of manifestoes

  3. This is just a copy/paste of the reply given during the last parliament session. Absolutely EXACT not even a coma has been changed. WELL DONE BUREAUCRATS you have won once again in telling your new political boss and even he has said exactly what you (Bureaucrats) want him to speak. It seems that he has not yet applied his own mind. Once he done, the things shall be different.

  4. Six and half months is more than enough unless govt intentions are different, but still hopes are on modiji, he won't revert back or step aside, let's wait

  5. Count not the chickens before the eggs are hatched. Let us not pin much hope on Modiji also for OROP. So far as the bureaucrat is concerned, the political master is an Aaya Ram Gaya Ram. Until and unless we take to the roads and fight a pitched battle we will not get OROP. Remember in nation such as USA, enlightenment about veterans came only after the Bonus March by WW 1 veterans.

  8. An absurd answer to straight forward questions ---- how much more time is needed to consider and decide -- and decide what? How to change the definition of OROP or how to go back on their words ? SIMPLY UNACCEPTABLE SHAMELESS ACT NOT TO ACT -- NOTHING LESS. Congress has a chance to put a real question but then both parties were never serious -- just accept this fact -- brothers ESM .

  9. Modalities of implementation,these are thought before or after the orop scheme accepted.Can a prudent man give logic for it.?

  10. what are the modalities? It is very simple. Make Maximum of Pay Band+GP+MSP as notional pay to fix pension for 33 yrs of service allowing some weightage in service wherever required for both pre and post 2006 retirees.
