    ANSWER TO QUESTION ASKED IN RAJYA SABHA REGARDING OROP

    GOVERNMENT OF INDIA
    MINISTRY OF  DEFENCE
    RAJYA SABHA
    UNSTARRED QUESTION NO-1296
    ANSWERED ON-05.12.2012

    Decision on one rank one pension scheme


    1296 .    SHRI PRAKASH KESHAV JAVADKAR
    HUSSAIN DALWAI
    (a) whether Government has taken any decision regarding the demand of ‘one rank one pension’ for the ex-servicemen;
    (b) if so, the details thereof;
    (c) if not, the reasons therefor; and
    (d) how Government proposes to give full ‘one rank one pension’?

    ANSWER
    MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF DEFENCE
    (SHRI JITENDRA SINGH)
    (a) to (d): Government has always been sensitive to the demand of One Rank One Pension. Keeping in view the spirit of the demand, several Commissions / Committees were appointed. Though the demand was not accepted, their recommendations resulted in improving the pension of past pensioners.
    A Committee was set up under the Chairmanship of the Cabinet Secretary in June, 2009. The Committee went into the demand and other related issues. It made seven recommendations aimed at narrowing the gap between earlier and current pensions. This has benefited about 12 lakh retired PBORs / Officers at an annual cost of Rs.2200/- crores approximately.
    Government constituted another Committee in July, 2012, headed by Cabinet Secretary for looking into the pay and pension related issues of relevance to Defence service personnel and Ex-servicemen. The Committee submitted its report. Its recommendations have been accepted by the Government and are in the process of implementation.
    Substantial improvements have been made in the pensions of Armed Forces Personnel after 01.01.2006. However, improvement of pensionary benefits is an ongoing process.

    "We feel that it  would be appropriate that the petitioner files separate writ petitions in   respect  of  each of the OA which were filed before the Tribunal. The  present writ petition shall be considered as the writ petition in respect  of OA No. 655/2010.  We are issuing formal notice in this matter."   The learned counsel for the respondents state that there would be no necessity to file a counter-affidavit and  they would be relying on the pleadings before the Tribunal and shall not press the contempt application before the  Tribunal till the next date of hearing.  An adjournment slip has been filed on behalf of the respondent. 
      The case was again heard on 29.11.12. Respondents submitted Counters to the  Petition with a point wise reply  in writing. Court gave 4 weeks time to UOI to submit  their Rejoinder.Next date of hearing as per listing is 29/04/2013 .
    ( unreliable sources says that the  Govt. may issue orders before the next date of hearing accepting modified parity prospectively to avoid embarrassment as in the case of rank pay case of defense officers in which govt was directed to pay the arrears retrospectively with interest w.e.f. 1986. )
