Is there any connection between the report of 7th CPC and OROP announcement?



Is there any connection between the report of 7th CPC and OROP announcement?





“Is there any connection between the submission of report of 7th CPC to Central and the announcement of OROP to Defence Personnel?”





The 7th Pay Commission has announced through on its portal last month that the task was given by the Government to the commission will be completed within the time frame and the commission will submit its recommendations before September this year to Central Government.





Some believe that the two reports could be linked.





“The 7th Pay Commission is all set to submit its report to the Government before August 15.”





“The Prime Minister is expected to announce the implementation of OROP in his Independence Day address to the nation.”





According to unofficial sources, the 7th Pay Commission is going to submit its report to the Government before August 15. The fact that the commission has completed its work much ahead of its deadline is indeed commendable. This is the first time in the history of Pay Commissions that a Commission has completed its report ahead of its deadline. Pay Commissions are synonymous with arrears. Last time, 20-month arrears were paid in two installments. If the new Pay Commission’s recommendations are implemented on time, it would be another first – the first to not have any pending arrears.

Justification of One Rank One Pension – What is the real status of OROP?



Justification of One Rank One Pension – What is the real status of OROP?





Why is the Government hesitant to implement OROP? – Is economical burden on the exchequer the only reason?





“When the body and spirit are hale and healthy, our soldiers dedicate their life for the safety of the country. Once the body has worn out and the soldiers retire, they want a secure life. What’s unreasonable about this?





“The 35-year-long demand might look unreasonable at the first glance. But, if the request is studied in depth, the urgency and necessity to implement it can be understood.”





IESM claims that civilians and CRPF cannot demand to be included in this scheme.


The moment a young man or woman enters a government service, his/her future is secure until the age of 57-60. The government pays them salaries, promotions and regular incentives and increments. Post-retirement, there is always the pension. But, the soldiers who join the Army, Navy, and the Air Force, opt for retirement at the age of 37. At the time of retirement, they are offered meager pensions. Is it right to use the same yardsticks to compare the two?
