On Monday, September 13th, over 19 lakh government employees in Maharashtra went on strike to protest against the recent decision by the state government to switch from the old pension scheme to the new one. The employees staged a walkout and held protests across the state.

The employees are demanding that the old pension scheme be reinstated, citing concerns over the financial stability and security of their future. Under the old pension scheme, employees were entitled to a guaranteed pension after they retire, which was calculated based on their last salary. In contrast, the new pension scheme, which is based on a contribution to the National Pension Scheme (NPS), is seen as less secure and leaves employees more vulnerable to market volatility.

The switch to the new pension scheme is part of a larger trend across the country, where governments are looking to cut costs and reduce the burden of pension funds on their budgets. While the move may save the state some money in the short term, it is likely to have long-term consequences for the financial well-being of its employees.

The workers’ unions have expressed their disappointment with the government’s decision to switch to the new pension scheme and have accused the government of betraying the trust of its employees. The unions have stated that they will continue their strike until their demands are met.

The strike has affected various services across the state, including healthcare, public transport, and government offices. The Maharashtra State Road Transport Corporation (MSRTC) has also been affected, with buses being cancelled or delayed due to the strike.

The state government has responded to the strike by urging employees to return to work and stating that it is open to talks with the workers’ unions. However, the unions have stated that they will not back down until their demands are met.

In conclusion, the strike by over 19 lakh government employees in Maharashtra highlights the mounting dissatisfaction among workers with the current state of pensions in the country. The switch to the new pension scheme is viewed as a betrayal of trust by the workers and has left them feeling vulnerable and insecure about their future. The strike is likely to continue until the government addresses the concerns of the workers and reinstates the old pension scheme.
