Now the demand for old pension is increasing continuously in the country, in such a situation, where on one hand the central government was refusing to give OPS, on the other hand, now the central government has proposed to form a committee for this. With the formation of this committee, some hope has arisen among the government employees of the Center and BJP-ruled states.
Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Friday proposed in Parliament to set up a committee to look into issues related to pension of government employees. The Finance Minister said that a committee will be formed under the leadership of the Finance Secretary. This committee will review the new pension scheme.
Let us tell you that from January 1, 2004, NPS i.e. New Pension Scheme is applicable in the country. After the formation of the committee, the OPS will also be reviewed and after that the central government can take a decision.
