The ex-servicemen under the banner of ‘Sabka Sainik Sanghrash Committee’ against the alleged discrimination with the personnel below officer rank (PBOR) observed a black day by protesting in Tarn Taran on Thursday.
Subedar Pargat Singh, National Chairman of the Committee while speaking on the occasion said that the 7th Pay Commission recommendation given under OROP to PBOR has failed to make them satisfied as it was not up to their expectations.
He demanded that to give them their due, the Union must form a three-member committee of retired Supreme Court judges under the supervision of the Supreme Court to counter the differences of the 7th Pay Commissioner. Jagtar Singh Bath, Joginder Singh, Sarwan Singh, Satpal Singh, Sukhbir Singh were among their others who also spoke on the occasion and stressed that their demands would be addressed.
