The centre has made two big announcements for the poor and the pensioners. The free ration scheme has been extended till December 2023 and the OROP has been revised. This is touted as the Centre's gift for the poor and pensioners. The Union Cabinet on Friday decided to extend the free ration scheme to 81.35 crore poor people under the National Food Security Act (NFSA) for a year. In another major decision, the government has approved the revision of pension for armed forces under One Rank One Pension (OROP) scheme with effect from July 1, 2019. The former pensioners' pensions would be recalculated using the average of the minimum and maximum pensions received by defence forces retirees in the same rank with the same amount of service during the calendar year 2018.
