Supreme Court Stays Delhi HC Direction That Old Pension Scheme Is Applicable To Paramilitary Forces/CAPF Personnel

The Supreme Court has stayed a Delhi High Court order that extended the Old Pension Scheme (OPS) to paramilitary forces. The stay indicates the Supreme Court's intent to carefully examine the implications of applying OPS to paramilitary forces, which could have significant financial and administrative consequences. The final decision will determine whether the paramilitary personnel can revert to the OPS or must remain under the New Pension Scheme (NPS). This case highlights the ongoing debate over pension schemes in India.
