Early Times Report
Jammu, Jan 1: National Old Pension Restoration United Front (NOPRUF), an Combination of workers associations, today held a peaceful protest at Panama Chowk Jammu seeking restoration of the Old Pension Scheme.
The protest demonstration was led by its UT president Mr. Rajesh Sharma, who said that the new Pension Scheme does not provide the guarantee of minimum pension and is not in the welfare of employees and their family members.
On the occasion Dr Rakesh Chib President JUNTEU and Chief Convenor NOPRUF also addressed the media and said that the new pension scheme (NPS) is full of demerits and flaws. NPS was introduced in JKUT in January 2010 which is not at par with the old pension scheme (OPS) in terms of post retirement benefits. Chib said that it is not beneficial for the post retirement life of an employee. Under the new pension scheme employees cannot even meet the expense of medicines and other requirements. It has been witnessed that retirees are getting just an amount around Rs 1500 as a monthly pension in present time.
Dr Rakesh Chib said that the campaign for restoration of the old pension scheme will continue until the Government scraps NPS and restores employees friendly old pension schemes.
Those who were present in the Protest included, National Vice President Mrignayani Slathia, Sanjeev Kumar, Sakoon Manir, Jeelani Naik Upasana Singh, Asma Parvez, Shivani Manhas, Anjali Kotwal, Rajni Sharma, Saima Begum, Sanjeet Manhas, Shafket Hussain, Dost Mohd, Zaheer Sheikh, Bushan Kumar and others. |
