Thiruvananthapuram : The Cabinet meeting on Wednesday froze order raising retirement age to 60.The order enhancing pension age was issued recently by the Finance Dept. The DYFI and several youth organisations demanded withdrawal of the order.
The order was meant for having uniform retirement age across the Public Sector Units, which now have varied ages as decided by their individual managements. Soon as the order was issued, DYFI raised strong protest and demanded that government intervene for its repeal. The govt move to help youth realise their dream of job, is heartening, said DYFI.
