The demand to revive the old pension scheme (OPS) that has become an electoral issue, continues to keep the Shinde-Fadnavis government under pressure, especially after its negative impact was felt in the recently held legislative council polls for the teachers and graduates constituencies.
The Opposition had campaigned around the government’s refusal to revive the OPS. The present government has said that the previous government was of the same opinion, because of the huge impact the revival would have on state coffers and render the government broke in coming years.
