B’swar woman gets pension with interest

Saturday, 28 May 2022 | PNS | BALESWAR

An eligible beneficiary covered under the Madhu Babu Pension Yojana, who has had to run from pillar to post to get her pension, finally got the pension following the Orissa High Court’s intervention.

Ambikarani Behera of Samilhasinpur village under Rupsa area had applied for the pension and it had been approved. However, despite the approval, she was not getting the same. She had apprised everyone including the panchayat officer, BDO and the Sub Collector of her plight, but in vain.

Failing to get a relief, she had moved the HC and the court after examining all the documents, had ordered the authorities to disburse her dues with 7 per cent interest within two months. On Monday, the BDO called her to the block office and gave a sum of Rs 4,500, including Rs 315 as interest, for keeping the pension pending for eight months.
