Chandigarh, Feb. 16 -- Haryana chief minister Nayab Singh Saini on Sunday hit back at the opposition over allegations regarding social security pensions, accusing it of misleading people and urging it to introspect.

Addressing the 'Viksit Sohna-Tauru Rally' in Tauru town of Nuh district, Saini assured senior citizens that there was no need to worry about their pensions. He said that "those who delayed pensions for up to six months during their tenure" were now raising questions and asked the opposition to "first introspect" instead of misleading people.

Saini claimed that while pensions were delayed during the previous regime, the BJP government had increased social security pensions by Rs.2,200 over the past 11 years.
