What steps are being taken by the Indian government to provide financial security to its employees

The Indian government is planning to provide which type of pensions to its employees?
The Indian government has undertaken several measures to provide financial security to its employees. In this regard, it has planned to introduce different types of pensions for its employees.
  • The government will introduce a new pension scheme that allows employees to contribute for their pension plans. This scheme will replace the current Defined Benefit Pension scheme.
  • Under the new scheme, employees can choose their contribution amount, which will be matched by the government.
  • The National Pension System (NPS) is another popular pension scheme in India, which is managed by the Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority.
  • The NPS is a market-linked pension plan in which employees can choose their fund manager and invest in different asset classes such as equity, debt, and government securities.
  • The government has also introduced a Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA) bill to regulate the pension sector in India.
  • The government is also offering a voluntary exit scheme, which allows employees to retire before their retirement age with a lump sum amount.
These initiatives by the Indian government aim to provide financial security to its employees and ensure that they have a comfortable life after retirement.
