Srinivasan Verma also said that the sacrifices of the employees, especially 1000, have been made a joke of but in July, a big decision was taken by the Labour Ministry regarding the EPS fund but now there is also news that with the beginning of 2026, there may be a new announcement regarding the rules and the Eighth Pay Commission, during which the pension received after retirement will also be increased.
How much will the basic minimum pension Hike?
As you all know, the basic minimum pension has increased from ₹1,000 to ₹7,500 per month, with a dearness allowance tied to inflation. Despite this significant change, pensioners are often unhappy.
