Alleging that the BJP has ‘snatched’ the economic security of the elderly by doing away with the old pension scheme, Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra today reiterated that her party will restore the old pension scheme, if voted to power in Himachal Pradesh and Gujarat assembly polls.

In a Facebook post, Priyanka Gandhi said the Congress believes that the employees who have contributed to nation-building should get a pension so that they don't have to depend on anyone in old age. She also said that the Congress governments of Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan have implemented the old pension scheme. Priyanka Gandhi alleged the BJP for abolishing pension scheme and said BJP snatched financial insecurity of the elderly in the country. Our soldiers who protect the country at the borders while risking their lives, their economic security is also being snatched away one by one, she added.
