  1. It is true and well come . However OROP scheme is not implemented to APS officers who have in the army as a combanat for more than 30 years. CGDA says that pension of APS officers is not sanctioned by the defence accounts. While in service their pay is disbursed by the PAO of APS and they are considered as defence service person. But after superannuation they are not considered as defence person on OROP benefit ONLY even though the same PAO of APS is paying pension. The barrier in this case has to be broken by the competent authority and make way to pay the OROP benefit for APS officers also.
