Dear Veterans,
like most of you I also watched the NDTV prog on OROP.
I have only the follwing arguments to support our case –

1 OROP is a commitment of the successive govts and the civil servants should find the ways and means to implement this rather than put legal and other obstacles to it.

2 when the lady gave the argument that OROP is tenable for the Secretaries to the govt of India because they get fixed pay and not to others because they have a scale of pay and it would tentamount to revising their salaries from retrospective effect ( when they were not in service ), our argument shoud have been---- aren't the ''fixed pays of the old retired secretaries also being revised retrospectively ( when they were not in service ) to enable them to get the same pension as th recently retired ones? How is that legally tenable?

Jai Hind
