It has been amply clarified, on number of occasion since yesterday; by the power that be; that the benefits of OROP will be applicable and available in all respects to the veterans, who have taken PMR and are already drawing military pension. However OROP including Pension for future PMR seekers will not be implemented. The VRS clause was actually meant for the SSC officers leaving the Defence Forces, after their contractual period of may be till 14 years. The issue probably got cluttered, when the veterans highlighted to the MOD; that there is nothing like VRS in the Defence Forces. It is then the fire fight ensued, to correct this mistake. The issue which was a last minute addition in the OROP order, found MOD in Red Face; and became difficult to justify. The veterans, due to this inadvertent error, were shocked and totally disappointed; causing severe set back to their legitimate and honorable fight for their Pride. All is well that ends well, so far it seems? The issue of OROP to till date veterans on PMR is solved.
