On the one hand, where the whole country is troubled by Corona, in the meantime, on the social media day, the false news is also not less than any problem. Recently, one such fake news is becoming increasingly viral on the Internet. According to the news, the central government is going to reduce the retirement age of its employees from 60 years to 50 years.


On 25 April, a website called The Sen Times published this news. Not only this, BJP leader and Rajya Sabha MP Subramaniam Swamy, who remained in the news with his statements, gave this thing further air in a tweet today. He claimed in the tweet that the government has decided to reduce the retirement age of government employees to 50 years.

Tweeting a screenshot of the article from The Sen Times, PIB Fact Check denied the news. He wrote in his tweet that a news portal has claimed that in times of crisis like Coronavirus, the retirement age of central government employees can be reduced to 50 years. The claim made in this report is false. The government is neither making any such plans nor has any such plans been discussed.
