Recently Jharkhand government has reduced the age limit of old age pension for Dalits and tribals.
This age limit has now been reduced to 50 years.
Earlier this limit was 60 years.
The government has taken this decision because the mortality rate among tribals is high and they do not get jobs after 60 years.
When Jharkhand was formed in the year 2000, only 16 lakh people were getting pension benefits.
Now about 36 lakh people above 60 years of age are getting pension benefits.
