In today’s era, the biggest concern for employed people is their old age. Now pension has been abolished even in government jobs. However, pension is still being given to old government employees. But, this is not the case with new employees. Pension is a type of fund in which money is added during the employment years of an employee and that money is paid to the employee after his retirement. The pension amount is also paid per month and can be paid in one go.

This is the reason why people are often worried about their old age. But, now you have no need to worry. You can avail pension of up to Rs 5,000 per month after retirement by investing in the government’s Atal Pension Scheme. Especially the farmers can secure their old age through this pension scheme.
