(To those who join the service after April, 2013.)
 Kerala has decided to introduce contributory pension scheme for those joining the government services from next financial year, even as the CPI-M led LDF opposition expressed its reservation on the new scheme. Chief Minister Oommen Chandy, speaking to reporters after a special cabinet meeting, said a government order in this regard has been issued by the Finance department and the new scheme would be applicable only to those who join the service after April, 2013"There will not be any difficulty for the present employees," he said. Except Kerala, West Bengal and Tripura, all other states in the country have introduced contributory pension scheme, Chandy pointed out as a justification for the UDF Government decision to go for contributory pension.
