PENSION ANOMALIES IN OROP II APPLICABLE FROM 01 JULY 2019

Hon’ble Defence Prime Minister of India,

1. One rank one pension II is a great deception to the JCO’S /NCO’S equivalent ranks in the defence forces. What can be fun if JCO/NCO’s and Hony officers’ pensions are reduced on the name OROP II?

2. In the OROP II officers one rank one pension done 100 percentages as per the pay rules for army officers 03 May 2017 .The Tables of Pay rules and OROP II is attached for your reference.

3. The OROP II is a disaster for the JCO’S / NCO’S and Hony Commissioned officer’s equivalent ranks. The pension is not enhanced as per the pay rules for the Ranks 03 May 2017. The Tables of Pay rules and OROP II is attached for your reference.

4. Why the pension of JCO/NCO’s and Hony officers’ is not compatible with the given pay rules for the Ranks 03 May 2017 whereas it is done for the officers.

This pattern shows that Defence officers are the custodian of the defence force and JCO/NCO’s and Hony officers ‘are the contract employees. You give them any Pay and pension as you like.

This pattern will break the all the traditions of the defence force.

For this disparity our own defence officers are responsible; they never pay concentration to the subordinates. It is a great injustice to the personnel below officer ranks.

6. It is very unfortunate but true our defence officers cannot survive without disparity among officers and personnel below officers.

There is a disparity in the Ration, uniform, MSP, accommodation and service a huge cap in pay and pensions.

It will be better if a committee of IAS & IADS officers be instituted for the welfare of personnel below officer ranks for all purposes rather than defence officers.

Seeing these OROP II tables JCO’s / NCO have lost the faith in defence officers. It will be great setback for any defence force.

7. The letter of National Federation of Honorary Commissioner officers is also attached explaining how the Honorary commissioner officers were downgraded from the 5th CPC ,6CPC , 7th CPC and after OROP I & II.

Therefore you are requested to take immediate action to discard OROP II tables and order to prepare correct tables considering the same hike in percentage to all ranks.

I shall be very thankful to you for your early action please.

Yours Sincerely

President

If it is one rank one pension, then why the table number 7 and 8 issued for the same rank with different pension.
It is injustice for defence ex-servicemen.

I think it is not one rank one pension but created difference between the pension of pre 2016 and post 2016 JCO and or for X group pension there are two different table table no 7 for pre 2016 pensioner and table no 8 for post 2016.
