Jumla, April 27
For the first time in the Himalayan district of Jumla, e-pension services have been introduced for permanent government employees. Manjit Achhami, the District Treasury Controller Office (DTCO) in Jumla, announced that the e-pension service initiated by the Ministry of Finance of the federal government has been implemented in Jumla.
Under this service, Kamal Thapa Kshetri, an agricultural officer from the Agriculture Development Office who retired from Chandannath Municipality, has become the first beneficiary. The necessity to travel to Kathmandu has been eliminated with the introduction of the e-pension service, resulting in savings of both time and costs, Achhami said.
