    CLARIFICATION ON YOUR ADDRESS TO EX SERVICEMEN AT DEHRADUN ON 04 MAR 2019

    Hon’ble Raksha Mantri,

    1.        Please refer our letter dated 05 Mar 2019 (copy attached).

    2.       During your address to Ex Servicemen, you had touched upon a few important issues of defence personnel ie OROP and minimum pension.

    3.       May I request you for clarification necessary on the above issues as per succeeding paragraphs:-

    (a)

    OROP.  You had stated that the review of OROP will be carried out after three years and the same will be done this year.  If the Govt had decided equalization of pension every three year, then the review is due with effect from 01 Jul 2017.  In that case the Govt Notification needs to be issued to execute equalization of pension of defence personnel with effect from 01 Jul 2017.  If it is carried out this year i.e. 01 Jul 2019,  the equalization of pension would be after five years and not three years as stated by you, since OROP was granted by your Govt with effect from 01 Jul 2014 vide Govt Notification dated 07 Nov 2015.  This important issue needs to be clarified.  May I request you for early clarification please?

    (b)

    Minimum Pension of Rs 18000/-pm.  During your address, you had stated that the minimum pension which is Rs 10,000/pm as of now will be increased to Rs 18,000/-pm.  As per the existing order, minimum pension is  Rs 9,000+DA.  Will the pension of widows and reservists be increased to Rs 18000/-pm + DA as stated by you?  If it is so, it is very welcome decision by your Govt.  Defence widows and reservists are the most effected pensioners of def family.  May I request for your consideration and early clarification please.

    3.       May I also request you for meeting for half an hours of three members of Indian ex servicemen (IESM) at your earliest please.

    With regards,
    Yours Sincerely,

    Maj Gen Satbir Singh, SM (Retd)
    Advisor United Front of Ex Servicemen &
    Chairman Indian Ex-Servicemen Movement (IESM)
