Is
there any connection between the report of 7th CPC and OROP announcement?
“Is there any connection between the submission of report of
7th CPC to Central and the announcement of OROP to Defence Personnel?”
The
7th Pay Commission has announced through on its portal last month that the task
was given by the Government to the commission will be completed within the time
frame and the commission will submit its recommendations before September this
year to Central Government.
Some
believe that the two reports could be linked.
“The 7th Pay Commission is all set to submit its report to
the Government before August 15.”
“The Prime Minister is expected to announce the
implementation of OROP in his Independence Day address to the nation.”
According
to unofficial sources, the 7th Pay Commission is going to submit its report to
the Government before August 15. The fact that the commission has completed its
work much ahead of its deadline is indeed commendable. This is the first time
in the history of Pay Commissions that a Commission has completed its report
ahead of its deadline. Pay Commissions are synonymous with arrears. Last time,
20-month arrears were paid in two installments. If the new Pay Commission’s
recommendations are implemented on time, it would be another first – the first
to not have any pending arrears.
On
June 24, the Pay Commission itself said on its website that the
report-preparation is in its final stage, and that work will be completed on
schedule. The announcement was welcomed by Central Government employees, and
helped clear lot of doubts in their minds.

has plenty of unconfirmed reports on various issues related to the 7th Pay
Commission, including a minimum basic pay of Rs.21000, removal of the Grade Pay
system that was introduced by the 6th Pay Commission, and a uniform 2.86 pay
scale for all grades. The website also said that the railway employees
federation had confirmed that the 7th Pay Commission will submit its report on
August 30. This created tremendous excitement among Central Government
employees.
Meanwhile,
a popular English newspaper reported that the Pay Commission will submit its
report towards the end of October.
In
the midst of all these uncertainties, there comes another unconfirmed report that
the recommendations will be submitted well before August 15. It adds that the
Prime Minister will also announce the OROP scheme in his Independence Day
speech.
We
have been unable to find out if the 7th Pay Commission has any recommendations
on OROP. But, there is wide expectation that the report will have some
suggestions related to it.
