Babushahi Bureau
Mohali, October 6, 2024: The state-level executive of the Punjab Senior Vets Association, at a meeting held here today, condemned the AAP government for failing to fulfill the promises it made to the electorate, especially employees and pensioners.
They pointed out that although more than half the tenure of the government had elapsed, the promise of implementation of Old Pension Scheme(OPS) for the employees who had been recruited post-2004, had not been fulfilled. Whereas, the government in the neighboring state of Himachal Pradesh had in its very first month of formation had implemented OPS.
They alleged that the Punjab government was just gaining time by making committees for finding ways and means to restore OPS.
They urged the Punjab Government to issue notification of OPS so that the employees could have a sigh of relief and a secured future and thereby work with full zeal and dedication in public interest.
