The Press Information Bureau (PIB) has debunked a viral WhatsApp message claiming that the Centre has stopped DA hikes and Pay Commission benefits for retired government employees as part of the Finance Act 2025 as fake and misleading.

PIB further noted that the amendment under Rule 37 of the CCS (Pension) Rules, 2021, only applies to absorbed PSU employees dismissed for misconduct, leading to forfeiture of their retirement benefits.
