Seems that 7th CPC award will be implemented after OROP!
New Delhi: Call it a good news or bad news! The 7th Pay Commission( 7th CPC) may be implemented only after One Rank One Pension (OROP) gets implemented.
As per sources, the empowered committee of secretaries is likely to process the 7th CPC report only after the OROP is executed.
Even though OROP notification took place in November 2015, it is yet to be executed due to demands of the ex-servicemen seeking modifications in the notification.
Also, it is also not going to be a mean task for the thirteen member committee comprising Cabinet Secretary , Finance Secretary, DoPT Secretary, Pension Secretary, Home Secretary, Defence Secretary, Revenue Secretary, Posts Secretary, Health Secretary, Science & Technology Secretary, Railway Board Chairman, Deputy Comptroller & Auditor General and Secretary (Security), Cabinet Secretariat, to arrive on a consensus over a short period of time, while safeguarding the concerns of the finance ministry on the impact on expenditure.
The central government employees are demanding around 44 percent hike on the basic minimum pay of Rs 18,000 announced in the 7th CPC recommendations. Even the Defence employees have expressed their concerns on the recommendations of the 7th CPC.
As per government sources there are around 48 lakh central government employees, and 55 lakh pensioners in the country.

Numbers of govt employees and pensioners constitute relatively meager in our country. If the govt itself hesitant to pay the emp and pensioners satisfactorily then, the private sector and corporate may start paying too less to their employees as now already pay meager . The middle class in the society already in trouble to make both ends. It is very sad by reading these things.
The OROP comes into News for wrong reasons. It's implementation is dateless. The CG employees should go ahead with their own plans for 6CPC implementation.
In reality, there is absolutely no link between the two and it would be unnecessary to link the two and should be treated as independent issues and thus the delay could be avoided.
