A delegation of pensioners<\/a>‘ body EPS-95 National Agitation Committee<\/a> on Tuesday met with senior officials of the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation to press for their long-standing demand for a minimum monthly pension<\/a> of Rs 7,500. The members also demanded full medical coverage<\/a> for EPS<\/a> members and their spouses, EPS-95 National Agitation Committee<\/a> (NAC) said in a statement. <\/p>\n

“An invitation came to us from Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO<\/a>) for a meeting. The objective of the meeting was to resolve the pending demands of the pensioners,” EPS-95 NAC President Ashok Raut said.<\/p>\n

The EPS-95 NAC members have been protesting to press for their demand of Rs 7,500 as monthly pension<\/a> instead of an average monthly pension of only Rs 1,450 at present, he said. <\/p>\n

Raut said the pensioners have been demanding an increase in the minimum pension for the past eight years, but the government<\/a> has not addressed their demands.<\/p>\n

The EPS-95 NAC, which includes around 78 lakh retired pensioners and 7.5 crore working employees of industrial sectors, is headquartered in Maharashtra.<\/div>\n
