 Extending his support to the ex-servicemen protesting at New Delhi's Jantar Mantar, senior lawyer Ram Jethmalani expressed his concern over the delay in the implementation of the 'One Rank One Pension', saying PM Narendra Modi had “failed his dream”.

Joining the ex-servicemen's protest at Jantar Mantar on 78th day, Jethmalani added his voice to the growing chorus demanding the implementation of 'One Rank One Pension' and slammed the Modi government for not fulfilling the demands. “I am ashamed to say that Modi has completely frustrated my dream of him,” the ANI quoted Ram Jethmalani as saying at OROP protest in New Delhi.

“The politicians unfortunately have let down the entire nation,” said Ram Jethmalani, adding, “I feel ashamed in saying I'm a politician too, but I'm not one of those politicians who will forget their friends & people of nation”.

THE OROP STRUGGLE AT THE FINAL STAGE-

A final solution to the ‘One Rank One Pension’ row remained out of reach despite hectic back channel talks, as the protesting ex-servicemen today rejected government's formula saying an attempt was being made to “short-change” them.

“The government is hell bent on short-changing. There are only three points of contention," a source here said.

Sources said the government wants 2011 to be the base year, besides no 3 per cent annual increase. The government also wants payment to begin from April 1, 2015 as against the agreed date of April 1, 2014.

Talks between the government and representatives of the retired veterans of the forces to break the One Rank One Pension (OROP) impasse remained inconclusive tonight. “The agitation will continue as it is,” Major General Satbir Singh (retd) of Indian Ex-Servicemen Movement said after the talks.

Late in the evening, a group of retired soldiers met Army Chief General Dalbir Singh Suhag. The veterans refused to make public the content of the talks and the offer, if any, made by the government to call off the agitation.
