Patna, Nov 3 (IBNS): Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Thursday urged the government to focus on the demand of ex-servicemen.

Tweeting on the issue of ex-servicemen Ram Kishan Grewal's suicide, Kumar termed it as saddening.

"Death of ex-soldier Shree Ram Kishan Grewal ji is saddening. The central government should focus on the demand of the ex-servicemen. #OROP," his tweet in Hindi read.

Grewal committed suicide on Wednesday over the One Rank One Pension (OROP) issue by consuming poison.
