  6. Chetwode motto!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Keeping self before subordinate.where was the conscience of top military echelons when they demanded following for themselves and not pbors
    1.rank pay for them not for pbors
    2.time scale promotion in 13 yrs to Lt col I.e.4rth rank for offers and not 4rth rank for pbors I.e. nb sub in 13 yes
    3.uniform pay scales for offers barring few additional pay for AMC RVC but not for not the same for pbors
    4.offers demanding parity with IAS/IPS whereas pbors craving for the same within themselves
    5.no offr retires today below t Lt col but majority of pbors do it so even after 24 yes of service
    6.Pbors jut got peanuts in prop whereas offers a handsome bounty
    For these inherent anomalies for pbors who were accountable to?? MOD?? B.crafts??or our own military top echelons.a result of this neglect can be seen as a massive disparity in pbors pension scale.at least this is high time to take these issues of pbors to the concerned authorities

  7. Government can't claim that this OROP is for everyone. Atleast I have got no benefit from this OROP. I retired in 2010 and the benefit is zero.

  8. 1. Sir, as per Govt of India Min of Defence Department of Ex Servicemen welfare letter No 12(1)/2014/D(Pen/Policy)-Part II dated 03 Feb 2016 the rates of revised pension are to be implemented with efffect from 01 Jul 2014 and pension of those who are in receipt of pension as on 01 Jul 2014 is to be revised in accordance of the pension tables annexed to the ibid letter. However, there is nothing mentioned about the revision of pension of those defence personal who retired after 01.07.2014. Please clarify this aspect. Further, a JCO retired on or before 01 Jul 2014 after rendering 30 years service in gp Y was granted basic pension of Rs 11970/- as per 6th CPC and his basic pension under OROP scheme is to be revised as Rs 12690/-. The same way a JCO of similar rank and service retired after 01 jul 2014 was also granted basic pension of Rs 11970/- but their pension has not been revised under OROP scheme. Thus not revising the pension of those who retired after 01 Jul 2014 is injustice with them. Please clarify this issue.
