One Rank One Pension 2016:
The war table of one rank one pension 2016 has been released by the government. The 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 Defense (MOD), in an “ex-parte” decision, during the tenure of the Indian National Congress (INC) led by Indira Gandhi. The table of one rank one pension 2016 for defense and ex-servicemen is given below
From the long time Army Personnel have been demanding the One Rank One Pay System. Current pension system takes into consideration, the last drawn pay while deciding one’s pension amount. However, the One Rank One Pension term suggests that armed force personnel holding the same rank and same length of service must be given same pension, regardless the last drawn pay. Another important point in this scheme is that any hike in pension rate will be automatically implemented to the past pensioners of the military.
What are the Reasons for the Demand of One Rank One Pension?
The civilian employee retires at the age of 60 while on the other hand the retirement age of Army officer is very less. So, the family responsibility for such army military personnel becomes a matter of concern and the 2nd career option is not very easy
Spays in Military retire at 35-38 years while NCO & JCOs retire at 40 to 45. Only 10 percent of Spays make it to the rank of JCOs
Most of the Officers retire in Early 50’s
If you know any army personnel, you will surely agree that military service is much tougher that any other job.
Military personnel are posted to different areas from time to time and most of the places where they are posted to are risky for their lives. In other words – They keep their lives at stake
Also there has been a gap of pension amount due to successive pay commission.
