The Court then asked Singh to file a formal affidavit in reply to the petition and fixed the matter for hearing after four weeks. The Indian Ex-servicemen Movement (IESM) and others have challenged the government’s policy of periodic review of pension once in five years. It has sought a direction for the government to implement OROP as recommended by the Koshyari Committee with an automatic annual revision, instead of the current policy of periodic review once in five years. “OROP is the uniform desire of all three defence services. Ex-servicemen are presently drawing pension that is not consistent with their rank and/or length of service... the pension of past pensioners be automatically and contemporaneously enhanced, whenever there is any future increase or enhancement in the rates of pension,” said the petition. It added the government should be directed to fix the pension on the basis of highest pension of financial year 2014-15 and not 2013.
