New Delhi: A combative Rahul Gandhi yesterday stepped up pressure on the government over OROP, accusing Prime Minister Narendra Modi of "lying" on the issue.
The Congress vice president asserted that OROP was the right of military personnel and the government "will have to give it". "What PM says is One Rank-One Pension is actually pension enhancement and not OROP.
PM should stop lying on the issue. OROP is the right of armed forces personnel and government will have to give it," said Rahul.
