Jaipur : There is a stir among the employee organizations of the state in Rajasthan regarding the Central Government’s Unified Pension Scheme (UPS). However, the Old Pension Scheme (OPS) is already in force in the state. The employee organizations of the state are evaluating UPS. On Sunday, we talked to many employee organizations of the state about UPS and OPS. The employee organizations said that UPS is better than NPS, but are calling OPS the best for employee interests.
giving arguments like this
Employee organizations say that in OPS, an employee is entitled to 50 percent of full pension after completing 20 years of service, while in UPS, 50 percent pension will be available after completing 25 years. In OPS, employees do not have to make any contribution, while in UPS, employees will have to make 10 percent contribution.
who said what
OPS has no competition, there is no deduction in it for the employees. GPS and State Insurance money is received with interest on the day of retirement. OPS is the best in terms of employee interests. – Gajendra Singh Rathore, President, State Employees Federation Integrated
The welfare of the employees lies in OPS only. If OPS is tampered with in Rajasthan, we will protest.
Employees in UPS will suffer loss in gratuity and pension, while in OPS there is only benefit. Central employees have to think about this.
The name of NPS was changed to UPS. It would have been better if OPS was implemented. If an attempt is made to bring UPS in Rajasthan, we will oppose it.
