Old age pension will be increased to Rs 2000 per month if Jan Suraaj voted to power : Prashant

Patna, May 31 (UNI) " Jan Suraaj " founder Prashant Kishor on Saturday said that old age pension will be increased to Rs 2000 per month, if voted to power in next Bihar assembly elections, slated for October-November this year.
Kishor during his " Badlao Yatra " in East Champaran district , told media persons that old age pension would be increased to Rs 2000 per month if his party was voted to power in Bihar in next assembly elections. At present, Nitish Kumar government was giving only Rs 400 per month as old age pension, a meagre amount to meet even few basic needs, he added.
" We are also committed to provide jobs to youths of Bihar and they would not be required to go outside state after their return during Chhath festival if Jan Suraaj voted to power ", Jan Suraaj leader said adding it was a shame for all of us that youths of Bihar were being forced to migrate to other states for petty jobs of Rs ten to twelve thousands per month. His party would change the scenario if got an opportunity to serve people of Bihar, he asserted.
" We will also ensure free education to all children under age of 15 years in private schools of Bihar", Kishor said adding that poor students would become fluent in english speaking and they would have bright prospects for employability, if they studied in private schools.
