New Delhi, August 28 (ANI): A delegation of ex-servicemen met Home Minister Rajnath Singh at his residence on Friday and demanded early implementation of One Rank One Pension (OROP) scheme. Major General (Retired) Satbir Singh said that the Home Minister assured the delegation that he will talk to Prime Minister Narendra Modi regarding OROP and get the scheme implemented as soon as possible.
