COMMENTS
What about option I regarding pensioners.
I would earnestly request GOI MOD to give effect of their order dated 30th September (De-linking Q.S of 33 years) while giving effect on the OROP Fixation of basic Pension which is w.e.f.1.7.2014 is based on pro-rata reduction in pension and the order of 30.09.2016 is without any pro-rata reduction w.e.f.01.01.2006. Only after giving effect of the latest order as above the GOI MOD may be pleased to fix the 7th CPC Basic Pension. I request GOI MOD to please review the above anomaly and issue necessary orders since the OROP Order is based on Pro-rata reduction of Pension.
