Veterans will reject five-year revision plan
Government’s version of the OROP will be out by Monday
New Delhi: There are indications that the government’s version of the OROP will be out by Monday. A report said the draft OROP proposal, circulated at the RSS coordination meeting, envisages 2013 as the base year for the scheme, and arrears would be paid in four instalments. War widows may, however, get it in one go.
“BJP chief Shah said OROP will be implemented soon,” Mr Vaidya said. But Maj. Gen. Satbir Singh (Retd), a key leader of the protesting ex-servicemen said if the periodicity of revision of pension is five years, the veterans will reject it.
