Election Compulsons Forced BJP To Review For Return Of Old Pension Scheme?

BJP till the very last moment always said they are not in favour of the return of OPS and in this connection RBI also issued a circular that states should not indulge in the return of the OPS and should continue with NPS to foresee the financial burden in payments source says. Probably for the first time such hard-hitting letters were issued to the states committed to the return of OPS and ignored the financial burden on the exchequer in paying post pension for every position held by a person source says. The policymakers have taken a U-turn and now a committee has been constituted to review the earlier decision of introducing NPS in place of OPS source says. This step itself gives hope and a political handle to the campaign for the 2024 elections source says. This also speaks that government is not averse to the misery of the employees under the NPS source says. The financial burden will indeed increase but to save the country from financial burden why only dedicated persons who spent their entire life in the service of the nation be asked to sacrifice whereas the other group of people are availing all amenities source says.
