NPS

A pension scheme that is neither social nor secure

Exactly twenty years after it was introduced, the participants in the New Pension Scheme (NPS) are feeling the pinch. Neither the government, nor the trade unions, nor even the beneficiaries - the employees of state and central governments - heeded the economists' hints and analytical advice at that time.

Demand for old pension scheme gains momentum

A national convention of unions and associations of Central and state government employees is being held in the National Capital on Saturday to decide the future course of action against the government.
