Training of Bhavishya will start from April 2021 in multiple sessions across the Central Government organizations. Central Armed Police Force (CAPF) offices at different locations across the country will also be covered in this training.
Similarly, going by the rule of “75”, an online workshop on Pension Awareness Rules for senior government pensioners and family pensioners will be held for those above the age of 75 years.
