The verdict

A December 2023 notification moved about 13,000 employees recruited through pre-April 2006 notifications to the OPS; the remaining NPS staff were not covered. In September 2026 the Deputy CM said the government had decided to scrap the NPS and bring back the OPS soon, with no order yet. Provisional rating.
