why this writer is trying to write in favour of old sinner Congress who are to be blamed for the most of the sufferings of the defence persons who were denied their demands consistently due to Congress arrogance . It is BJP\'s Modi who put balm on their sufferings after a long rule of Congress. Still the writer blindly supporting Congress and blaming BJP for wrong reasons , shame on her for spreading lies for political reasons . She is acting as agent of doomed party.

Well said but knowing Indians well they do not think of these as reasons to vote. Religion and caste only -:)
Is it not funny that an ordinary military officer expects that the prime minister of India should look after his seating arrangement. Either the said officer is under educated or the journalist who put the words in his mouth is.

BJP is somebody who actually brought in OROP It might have deficiencies but OROP was definitely brought in by BJP. In Congress time nothing was there ans you were taken care of? Why do you lie, you are looking through your religious glasses that is all -:)

BJP has only increased the pension one time, but has given it the name of OROP and this has mislead the civilians giving them a feeling that ex serviceman is making unnecessary demands. Every year the prises increase. A sickshaw wala also earns more than what he earned in previous year. Surely a defence man is also entitled for an yearly increase. And this is what is OROP that the defence man is asking for. Is this too much ?

Not sure not able to reply. Read my comments I did not say military is wrong in any way. In fact pension should be brought under planning commission. But we need to remember that it is BJP who did something and not anybody else

Be happy at least you have 85% of what you wanted. In any such protests/deals no one gets such a good bargain. At the same time I wish they get all of it..100%. I am not aware of the intricacies of the OROP demands and what the govt gave but I trust a soldier more than a politician and wish they get the balance 15%.
COming to who they would vote, it is ironic that you suggest the soldiers will vote for the congress who gave nothing, but not for the BJP who met 85% of their demands.
