Pensioners Demand ₹7,500 Minimum Pension, Call for Protest

Pensioners Demand ₹7,500 Minimum Pension, Call for Protest

Pensioners who worked for many years in factories and other jobs are not getting enough money when they retire.

They want the government to give them at least ₹7,500 every month instead of the current ₹1,000.

They also want free medicine for themselves and their spouses.

The group that represents them says the money they get now is too low for living costs.

They plan to protest on August 5 in New Delhi to ask the government to change the rules.
