We couldn't independently confirm this verdict against a government order or an established news source. This assessment is provisional — read it with caution.
Help us verify“We will abolish the current Contributory Pension Scheme (NPS) and re-introduce the Old Pension Scheme (OPS).”
The manifesto highlights promised to abolish the Contributory Pension Scheme, also known as the National Pension System, and reintroduce the Old Pension Scheme for state employees. No approved-source evidence was found that Telangana has notified the abolition of the contributory scheme or the restoration of the Old Pension Scheme as of July 2026; employee and pensioner associations were continuing to press the demand, and the fiscal cost of reverting to the Old Pension Scheme has been flagged in audit commentary. Because neither the abolition nor the restoration has been implemented, the verdict is pending, and the sustained inaction over more than two years makes it a candidate for a broken verdict. Budget: reverting to the Old Pension Scheme carries a significant recurring fiscal cost, and no approved-source evidence of a provision to implement it was found.
Pensioner associations continue to demand scrapping the contributory scheme and restoring the Old Pension Scheme
