Whereas at present there are more than 5 crore contributors who are contributing to this fund. Old pensioners who have spent half their lives in government and non-government companies are being given only a few rupees as pension in this era of severe inflation.

Whereas they are dependent on others for the expenses incurred on their health! Under the Employees Pension Scheme 1995, the National Agitation Committee is constantly demanding an increase in the pension! The Ministry of Labor and Employment under the Central Government has also assured an increase in the pension!
