The Congress's delight at the introduction of the Unified Pension Scheme -- a move they have termed rollback of the BJP-led government "-- has drawn a fresh barb from the BJP. Senior party leader Ravi Shankar Prasad today questioned when the Congress will meet its election promises, particularly the one on pension.
"I want to ask Rahul Gandhi -- has his government implemented the Old Pension Scheme as promised in Himachal Pradesh?" said Mr Prasad, a former Union minister who handled the law portfolio.
