They r demanding their own right. Distributing sweets during war time is not enough. These soldiers r really hero. They deserve respect and not misbehaviour. I just want to challenge these bureaucrats go and stay in glacier or any border. They will not able to. This is army. Who r facing all problems without any problem. If they r in border. They just think about their country. But this country has no emotions for these great people.

Its the least the government can do for its soldiers, who sacrifice their lives for the nation. This whole issue of the OROP has really demotivated the fauj.. who feel really let down by the government and people of India.

The way in which our veterans were treated was shameful. What has happened to the national conscience? ?? Arise from your slumber countymen!! Time to speak up for those who had pledged their lives for your safety and sovereignty. ..

MODI AND THE MENTOR RSS HAVE TO LEARN A GREAT DEAL FROM THIS CONGRESSMAN SHASHI THAROOR REGARDING " DESHBHKTI AND VETERANS
Excellent article by Shashi Tharoor on OROP:-
New Year's Resolutions, it is said, are made to be broken. There's something about a new dawn that inspires the earnestness of yearned-for virtue in most of us, and we solemnly pledge to do this and that in the course of the New Year which we never thought ourselves capable of fulfilling in the old. And then, as the New Year turns less new, we tend to regret those rash resolutions, modify them, ignore them, or most of all, simply forget them.
Our new government didn't wait for the New Year to make something of a habit of breaking its promises, as a celebrated Congress Party publication on the BJP's many U-turns pointed out in early December. To some degree, this is unsurprising in most democracies: after all, as New York Governor Mario Cuomo famously pointed out more than two decades ago, "you campaign in poetry, but you govern in prose".
Extravagant campaign promises tend to look much more difficult to fulfil when faced with the reality of government.
But still, it is something new to discover a government breaking a promise that it has repeatedly made not just in its campaign but on the floor of Parliament, expressed by the Finance Minister in his Budget speech and repeated by the Prime Minister himself. A failure to fulfil such promises is normally, in most parliamentary democracies, a resigning matter, but our government carries on, blithely unconcerned. Meanwhile, of this particular promise, there is no sign of any intention to actually fulfil it.
What am I going on about? Very simple: it is the pledge to ensure "One Rank One Pension" for our retired military personnel, who currently suffer gross injustice through the provision of pensions that have not been indexed to inflation, so that a Brigadier who retired twenty years ago gets a lower pension than a Captain who leaves the

This is a sad state of affairs indeed. If the govt. and people of this country continue to pay only lip service to the armed forces and don't give a damn for them, then that day is not too far away when they may not live to regret it... The pot has been on a boil for too long, its about to burst now and singe everything in its way.
