My dear Col Sohi
1. Thanks for your mail. Your contributions to the cause of ESM welfare is highly appreciated.
2. I would however request you that, we should wait for the Govt orders, analyse them and then plan our future course of action. Purely going by the News paper reports, that the recommended proposal will cost the Govt approx Rs 600 crore, one can clearly discern that it will be nowhere near the OROP. The earlier estimates of OROP which appeared in the News papers indicated Rs 2200 crores per year for grant of full OROP. Your saying that the Cabinet Secretary has recommended very very near to the OROP may not be correct.
3. Col Sohi there is only one interpretation of OROP ie all past pensioners must get the same pension as is given the new pensioners with same length of service and same rank and it should remain so all the time ie OROP should be granted in perpetuity. Going by this as a concept, anything less than the above will not meet the ends of Justice.
4. I request all ESM Organizations and ESM to Unite and continue the efforts Unitedely to get Justice for defence Personnel.
With Kind Regards,
Jai Hind
Yours Sincerely,
Maj Gen (Retd) Satbir Singh, SM
Vice Chairman Indian ESM Movement
