Four eunuchs from each ward can get MCD pension

New Delhi, Feb 14 (PTI) Giving a push to its unique pension scheme for eunuchs, the Municipal Corporation of Delhi today announced reserving quotas for four persons from 'third gender' in each municipal ward.
The MCD had in November issued a notification including eunuchs in its social welfare pension scheme, making them eligible for a Rs-1,000 pension per month.
The pension scheme of the civic agency benefits different sections of the society including the elderly, widows and physically challenged. Like others, eunuchs too will have to get a recommendation from the area councillor for securing the pension but there were complaints that there were no clear-cut guidelines on how to use this discretionary quota for them.
