Demanding implementation of One Rank One Pension (OROP) to ex-servicemen in the country, retired armed forces personnel of the State under the banner of the Indian Ex-Services league, Odisha, will stage an agitation at the lower PMG here on June 14. league State general secretary Bidyadhar Nayak lamented that the OROP for the ex-servicemen of the country had got clearances at all levels, yet the BJP-led NDA Government at the Centre was not implementing it. Saying that OROP had been delayed too long from the UPA Government to the present NDA Government, Nayak said, “ In spite of a number of representations, the Defence Minister is yet to confirm the date for the implementation of the OROP compelling retired armed force personnel in the State to resort to agitation.”
