GENETICALLY MODIFIED O.R.O.P IS AN ASSURED TERMINAL CANCER FOR MOD - REMEMBER GOD IS ON THE SIDE OF SOLDIERS Dear Members IESM is little surprised on the reaction of only few veterans who are propagating against the proposed veterans Rally on 1 Feb 15. They are also saying that this might annoy the Govt. These fears are all ill founded and not based on any solid inputs. Can anyone tell IESM that 1. What is the confirmed news with them that the implementation letter would be issued by so and so date? 2. Do they have confirmed news that OROP definition will not be diluted under the pressure of MOD/CGDA. Please remember Veterans have been shortchanged number of times by manipulation by bureaucrats? Attempts are still being made for that and that is the reason of this undue delay. It is any body guess as to when and in what form implementation letter will be issued. IESM had been waiting for last 10 months and had been relentlessly projecting your demands to Govt. IESM has also confirmed that IESM delegation has also given valuable inputs to Defence Minister on 9 Dec 14. In-fact Defence Minister has been consulting many more veterans to clear his thought process. IESM confirms that this rally is not to confront Government. In a democratic set up every one has a right to project their demands and ask questions. IESM has been asking questions but did not get any reply. In India Rallys and protest are the best method to project your genuine demands. IESM has called this rally only to ask few questions and these are 1. Does it take 10 months to issue a letter for a full majority Govt? 2. When the OROP has been accepted in principle by the Govt and necessary funds have been catered for why is this undue suspense and delay in issuance of notification? 3. When PM of the nation has confirmed at three different occasion after taking oath as PM and innumerable times during campaigning for elections that OROP is his personal commitment to Armed Forces, why has the notification not been issued? 4. Why is MOD resorting to selective leaks to test the reaction of veterans? In fact these leaks are deliberate to test the strength of opposition to dilution of OROP. 5. Why is Government hesitating to commit that OROP letter will be out by so and so date and why is the Govt buying more time? In fact RM has bought time till 25 July 2015, Is this acceptable to veterans? 6. Why cant Government issue the notification of OROP by 1 Feb 15. What is holding issuance of the notification? All process of consultation and acceptance and approval has been completed. 7. What is stopping Govt to call for a press conference and give a clear statement about OROP? There are many more questions to be asked. IESM is sure that OROP can not be cancelled now and NDA Govt is committed to give OROP. What IESM is not sure is will it be full OROP or diluted OROP? IESM has called for this rally only to ask this question and clearly send a message that any dilution in OROP will not be accepted to veterans. IESM is asking one simple question to the veterans, please tell me will you accept diluted OROP? if not then all veterans must join the rally in large numbers. At the end IESM requests veterans who are opposed to the rally that they are free to have their view and are free to not to join the rally if they are not convinced about the utility of the rally. IESM has been getting very encouraging feedback from members from all states to go ahead with the proposed rally on 1 Feb 2015. Veterans from Tamil nadu, Karnataka, Andhra pradesh, Madhya pradesh, Chhatis garh, Gujrat, Rajasthan, Haryana, Punjab, uttaranchal, Himachal Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh and Bihar have already confirmed their participation in the rally. Ofocurse a large number of veterans from Delhi will be leading the rally. IESM HAS ANNOUNCED THE RALLY AT 1030H ON 1 FEB 2015 AT JANTAR MANTAR AFTER TAKING VIEW OF THOUSANDS OF VETERANS AND IT IS A CONSIDERED DECISION OF VETERANS. RALLY WILL DEFINITELY BE HELD AS PLANNED ON 01 FEB 2015 SUNDAY. ALL VETERANS ARE REQUESTED TO JOIN IN LARGE NUMBERS AND SEND A STRONG MESSAGE TO GOVERNMENT ON THIS UNDUE DELAY IN ISSUANCE OF NOTIFICATION. IESM IS DEFINITELY NOT WANTING ANY CONFRONTATION WITH THE GOVT BUT IS MAKING A REQUEST TO GOVT TO ISSUE THE NOTIFICATION AT THE EARLIEST. IN-FACT IESM WILL BE VERY HAPPY TO THANK THE GOVERNMENT IF THE LETTER IS TAKEN OUT BY 1FEB 2015. AMEN Regards Gp Capt VK Gandhi VSM Gen Sec IESM Block N5, Flat no 801, Narmada Block Pocket D6, Vasant Kunj New Delhi. 110070 Mobile 09810541222
