PM assures prompt action regarding the main demand of OROP for retired armymen in his I day speech.
On the pay and pension anomaly issues raised by the armed forces, the Prime Minister said the government will take "prompt action" after receiving recommendations of a high- level committee set up in this regard.
The committee set up under Cabinet Secretary Ajit Seth was supposed to submit its report to the Prime Minister by August 8 but it has been delayed. The Services have also demanded their representation in the six-member panel comprising only IAS officers.
"This committee will also look into matters concerning pension of retired men and officers and family pension being paid to their families. We will take prompt action on recommendations of the committee, once they are received," he said.
The main issues being looked into by the committee include the elevation of all Lt Gen-rank officers into a higher pay scale, increased family pension and 'one-rank-one-pension' (OROP) demand of the ex-servicemen.(With inputs from Business Standard)

When somebody in the forces does not meet a deadline, strict action is taken. But here the PM orders have been disobeyed by delaying the report submission. Any action taken against the erring IAS offers ? It just shows the state of affairs and the importance given to the issue......JAI HO !!
IN FORCES , WE HAVE ALWAYS GIVEN
ONE ORDER ---DO IT OR DIE.----
A soldier who serves for 20 years in a single grade pay and leaves the services for want of dignity, hence needs consideration-
In this Brithish Raj defence forces the Men (so called PBORs) are always Indians..officers are still Indian-Brithishers! !.
Hence, the voice of men are always supressed..who will take the note of their concerns untill they are not part of representives)
Jai Hind..
