OROP will certainly be implemented, don't lose heart: Gen V K Singh
Hyderabad, Jun 18: Minister of State for External Affairs General V K Singh today asserted that one-rank one-pension (OROP) scheme would certainly be implemented.
"The Prime Minister has made a promise regarding OROP. It would be implemented. There was some delay because calculations are going on. Therefore it is taking time. Let's not lose heart. I have full faith in the Prime Minister. It would be implemented exactly as wanted by the retired Armymen," Singh said.
