Serious and hectic preparations are being organised by the workers to make the Parliament March on 25th November against the PFRDA Bil a grand success. The Steering Committee met earlier and has planned all details. It is expected that more than one lakh workers of Central / State governments, teachers, Railways, defence, Postal, BSNL and pensioners will be participating in the same. The March will start from Jantar mantar and the lakhs of signatures obtained against the PFRDA Bill will be submitted to the President and Prime Minister of India.
The Standing Committee has already sent back the bill to the government. The Cabinet has finalised the same, but without accepting some of the favourable recommendations of the Standing Committee. The government is aggressively working for getting it passed in the Parliament, so that the lakhs of crores of rupees of the pension corpus can be utilised by the Fund Managers and the private corporates for increasing their profits. But there is no assured benefit to the workers who contributed to the fund.
There is no doubt in the mind of the employees that this bill has to be thrown out and should not be allowed to be passed by the Parliament. The Parliament March on 25th November is one more step towards this target.
