OPS, welfare initiatives to continue despite financial crunch, says Himachal CM
SHIMLA: Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Sukhvinder Sukhu on Tuesday reaffirmed the state's commitment to the Old Pension Scheme (OPS) and various public welfare initiatives, despite the Central government's withdrawal of the Revenue Deficit Grant (RDG).
Chief Minister Sukhu emphasised the government would continue these schemes by mobilising its own resources, ensuring that the rightful entitlements of the people remain protected under all circumstances.
Refuting the Opposition's stance, the Chief Minister told the media here that had the BJP been in power, they would have replaced the OPS with the Unified Pension Scheme (UPS), effectively ending the security currently enjoyed by government employees.
