The Supreme Court on Friday adjourned to March 24th the plea seeking implementation of the "One Rank One Pension" in Defence Forces. A division Bench of DY Chandrachud & Justice Subhash Reddy was hearing a plea filed by Indian Ex Servicemen Movement averring that despite assurance on floor of Parliament, what is being implemented is "different pensions for same rank depending on when the person retired" During the hearing today, Justice DY Chandrachud observed that the Bench of Justices Chandrachud and Subhash Reddy was scheduled to sit only for one day, and therefore the OROP case could not be taken up. The petitioners through their plea have averred that the Koshiyari Committee on 19th December 2011 had recommended that one rank one pension implies that uniform pension is to be paid to the Armed Forces Personnel who retire on the same rank with the same length of service, irrespective of their date of retirement and any future enhancement in the rates of pension will be automatically passed on to the past pensioners.
