Nitish Kumar Launched Old Aged Pension Program for Bihar

This is a landmark move on behalf of the JD(U) head. Many agencies have reported that Nitin and his party will continue to oppose the triple talaq bill which is an NDA initiative. JD-U had voiced their opposition in the Rajya Sabha, pertaining to this matter.

Therefore, people above 60 will be receiving a pension of Rs. 400 every month. Rs 500 would be the pension for those above 80. 35 lakh people in the state will be beneficiaries of this scheme.

This announcement is expected to influence Bihar's old-aged population who are supposed to go into the state elections phase next year.
