- One_Rank,_One_Pension abstract "One Rank, One Pension (OROP), or "same pension, for same rank, for same length of service, irrespective of the date of retirement" was the basis for determining the pension and benefits of Indian Armed Forces till 1973, when it was terminated by the Indian Ministry of Defence (MOD), in an "ex-parte" decision, during the tenure of the Indian National Congress (INC) led by Indira Gandhi. The termination of OROP, and drastic decrease in Armed Forces soldiers' pension from 70 percent to 37 percent of last pay drawn, two years after 1971 Bangladesh war, caused disquiet in the Indian Armed Forces and, since 2008, has been cause of public appeals and protests, and hunger strikes by armed forces veterans, the overwhelming majority of whom retire before they are forty years old.Against the background of four decades of unsuccessful attempts by Armed Forces veterans for implementation of OROP, the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) Government, in 2008, during the tenure of Manmohan Singh as Prime Minister, while disregarding OROP for the Armed Forces, granted OROP to present, and future civil Servants, in perpetuity, at the apex pay grade (Rs 80,000), the highest pay grade in the government, and a pay grade at which majority of the officials of India's Central Civil Services, including police officers, retire.In contrast to near hundred percent Apex-OROP coverage to past and future retiree from the civil services, including majority of civilian officers in Ministry of Defence responsible for providing secretarial, logistic, and rear area services to the Armed Forces, only a fraction of one percent of the armed forces officers, as hedge against their opposition to the scheme were provided coverage under the 'Apex-OROP-2008'.'Apex OROP' was accompanied by two other radical decisions in 2008: grant of 'non-functional financial up-gradation' to all civil services including the Indian Police Service, and creation of several hundred new posts of secretaries and Special Secretaries, at the apex grade pay level, so as to make almost all civilian and police officers eligible for apex scale OROP pensions. In the Police alone over three dozen new apex grade pay level post were created. 'Non-functional financial up-gradation'(NFU) was not extended to Armed Forces.These decisions, which increased the pay-pension gap between defence and civilian officials, and sharply downgraded highly selective Armed Forces pay grades and ranks across the board, most significantly, at the senior ranks of Colonel to Major General, and their equivalents in the Indian Navy and the Indian Air Force (IAF), were widely resented by the armed forces. Growing unease in the Armed Forces, and escalating protest by veterans, with implementation of OROP as focus, led to setting up of a ten-member all-party Parliamentary Panel, known as the Koshyari Committee after its chairman, to examine the OROP issue. The Koshyari Committee after considering the evidence, and hearing oral depositions for eight months, in December 2011, unanimously found merit in OROP and strongly recommended that, "Government should implement OROP in the defence forces across the board at the earliest and further that for future, the pay, allowances, pension, family pension, etc., in respect of the defence personnel should be determined by a separate commission" Despite the Koshyari Committee report, public commitments, including in the parliament, and visible disaffection amongst the armed force veterans, the UPA Government was slow to reach out to the veterans and implement OROP.In May 2014, the UPA Government having lost the election was replaced by replaced by the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) Government led by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which like the Congress Party, had on several occasions committed to implement OROP: it was an integral part of the election manifesto of the INC and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Sonia Gandhi of INC, and Narendra Modi of BJP, at political rallies made repeated commitments to implement OROP, if elected. Narendra Modi, the BJP prime Ministerial candidate, in order to win armed forces and veteran support, had made Armed Forces issues, including implementation of OROP, election rallying call.The BJP leadership after it assumed office continued to make pledges, and promises, but was slow to implement OROP, raising doubts about its commitment to implement OROP according to the accepted definition. The BJP ambivalence provoked nation wide protests by the veterans, starting 15 June 2015.Finally, on 5 September 2015, the NDA Government following 83 days of very public protest, including hunger strike, and assault by Delhi Police on the protesting veterans announced, unilaterally, the implementation the 'OROP Scheme' for the Armed Forces. The Government announcement was greeted with dismay, and appointment. The veteran organization denounced 'OROP-2015' saying it was not OROP. It did not conform with the 'accepted' definition of OROP, and decided to continue with their protest.".
