Latest Updated 30/10/2023: EPS 95 Rashtriya Sangharsh Samiti has demanded the benefit of dearness allowance along with minimum pension of Rs 7500. The organization termed the pension of Rs 1100 being given to the pensioners as a joke.
BS Rawat, General Secretary of EPS 95 Rashtriya Sangharsh Samiti, said that even after working for 35 to 40 years, pensioners are getting pension of only Rs 1100. Respecting the long services of the pensioners, the minimum pension should be made Rs 7500. Dearness allowance should also be ensured regularly. There is no budget problem regarding minimum pension. EPF has a capital of Rs 8 lakh crore. In this, interest of Rs 80 thousand crores is accumulated every month. Said that on this pensioners are paid an average pension of Rs 1150.
If the benefit of Rs 7500 minimum wage and dearness allowance is given, then only Rs 43 thousand crore will be spent. This will have a direct impact on 70 lakh pensioners as well as 7 crore EPS members. Said that until the pensioners are assured of these benefits, the agitation will be intensified.
