కనీస పెన్షన్‌ పెంపు ఎప్పుడు?

Retired employees under the EPS-95 scheme, who were removed from loss-making central public sector units via the Voluntary Separation Scheme since 2002, are demanding an increase in their minimum pension from ₹1,000 to ₹7,500 along with dearness allowance and health benefits.

Despite repeated petitions from Members of Parliament, parliamentary committee recommendations, and assurances from Union Ministers, the Narendra Modi-led central government has not implemented these changes, leading to protests by pensioners nationwide.
