Around 10,000 veterans from across 14 states are expected to take part in the rally.
It has been a week since the Narendra Modi government announced One Rank One Pension (OROP) for military veterans, but it has failed to end the protest by ex-servicemen at Jantar Mantar in the national capital.
The veterans are slated to hold a massive rally, dubbed the 'Sainik Satyagraha', on Saturday. Around 10,000 veterans from across 14 states are expected to take part in the rally.
This comes as the protesting ex-servicemen have rejected the One Rank One Pension Scheme announced by the government.
They have opposed the once in 5 year increment policy demanding an annual increment. They have also demanded the inclusion of those who opt for premature retirement.
