₹43-Crore Pension Scam Uncovered in Uttar Pradesh's Chitrakoot

Imagine some sneaky people stole money that was supposed to go to the families of people who had retired from their jobs and passed away.

This happened in a place called Chitrakoot in India.

These people opened fake bank accounts to get the money, sometimes even using the names of the dead people.

They would get more money than they should have, and then they'd use it to buy expensive things.

Over ₹43 crore was stolen!

Now, the government is trying to find out who did it and get the money back.

They're checking how the fake accounts were made and who approved them.

Some of the families of the dead people didn't even know their names were being used!
