NPS has turned into ‘no pension scheme’: Council members
The Hindu
Members of the BJP and the JD(S) on Thursday urged the State government to revert to the Old Pension Scheme (OPS) for State government employees as the New Pension Scheme (NPS) had failed to deliver the perceived benefits.
While JD(S) member K.T. Srikante Gowda raised the issue, several BJP members, including Ayanur Manjunath and Y.A. Narayanswamy, also urged the government to return to the old scheme.
