NO NOC REQUIRED FOR SALE OF ASSIGNED LAND TO EX-SERVICEMEN IN TELNGANA
Monday, February 6, 2023
Once again pre-2016 ‘X’ Group sergeants are downgraded in OROP-II
The
Table No 7 & 8 issued along with circular 666 by the implementing Agency for the revision of
Pension w.e.f.01/09/2019 has divided a homogeneous class of Retirees to Pre
& Post 2016 between the above two tables & has created a class within
class namely Pre2016 OROP Pensioners & Post 2016 OROP pensioners which is against the cabinet approved & President assented
Principle contained in both of the OROP notifications.
The
basic Pension as a sergeant of Group X with Rs 6200 as X Group pay having 15
years of Qualifying service as shown in Table 8 Rs 25920 as basic Pension is
denied on the basis of date of retirement in Pre 2016 which calls for the
intervention of the court. All the X GP
Veterans with X GP Pay of Rs 6200 & discharged Prior to 01/01/2016 in the
Rank of Sergeant with 15 years of qualifying service is illegally included in
Table No7 showing basic only as Rs 24160.
Therefore, all the ‘X’ Group sergeants are requested to study the matter and get prepared to file a case in AFT in due course.
Veterans in Hyderabad and Telangana may contact me for further details. my Whatsapp No.9849313988

OROP-2 UPDATE
IT IS UNDERSTOOD THAT THE OROP-2 TABLES ARE READY AND ORDERS ARE EXPECTED NEXT WEEK.
DO NOT EXPECT MIRACLES AND GET DISAPPOINTED, THE INCREASE MAY BE VERY LITTLE AS THE GAP BETWEEN OLD AND NEW PENSIONS IS NOT MUCH. AS ALL OF YOU KNOW THE MACP BENIFIT IS NOT ACCEPTED BY HON'BLE SUPREME COURT TO OLD PENSIONERS, THE INCREASE MAY BE MINIMAL. AS PER MY VIEW IT MAY BE AROUND 500 TO 1500.
