Parliament Panel Calls Rs 1,000 Pension Totally Insufficient

A parliamentary panel is raising eyebrows, declaring that the Rs 1,000 pension under the Employees’ Pension Scheme is like trying to fill a swimming pool with a teaspoon! With rising costs, this pension barely scratches the surface of basic needs. They're pushing for a review to boost it to something more respectable, so if you're banking on this for retirement, it's time to stash away some extra cash!
