  • 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.
