Government pensioners are the people who are most adversely affected by the rising cost of living. After giving of their best during their years, and now in their twilight of their lives, they are finding it difficult to make ends meet.

Most of them have no other income besides their meagre monthly pension. We must thank the Government for considering our plight from time to time, whenever a salary increase is granted to state employees. Unfortunately the increase given does not correspond with the high cost of living.
