AYURVEDIC WHOLE SYSTEM EFFECTIVE IN MANAGING RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS: STUDY

Posted On: 29 AUG 2024 4:22PM by PIB Delhi

A new scientific study has revealed the significant effectiveness of the Ayurvedic Whole System (AWS) in the management of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), a chronic autoimmune disorder affecting millions worldwide. This pioneering research demonstrates that AWS not only alleviates the symptoms of RA but also induces a metabolic shift towards normalisation in patients, offering a promising complementary approach to conventional treatments.

The study was conducted by a group of senior researchers from reputed research institutions, including Arthritis Treatment and Advanced Research Center (A-ATARC), Department of Kaya Chikitsa, State Ayurvedic College and Hospital, Lucknow University; Centre of Biomedical Research (CBMR), SGPGIMS Campus, Lucknow; Academy of Scientific and Innovative Research (AcSIR), Ghaziabad.

“This study is significant from the perspective of possible pathology reversal in case of RA being treated with whole system Ayurveda approach. This endorses ayurvedic concepts of ‘Samprapti Vighatan’ where a pathogenesis – disease complex is dismantled and ‘Doshas’ are brought back to normality.”, mentioned the first author Dr. Sanjeev Rastogi.

Published in the PubMed-indexed research journal, Journal of Ayurveda and Integrated Medicine (JAIM), the study highlighted substantial improvements in key clinical parameters among RA patients who underwent AWS intervention. There was a notable reduction in Disease Activity Score-28 Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (DAS-28 ESR), as well as decreases in both the total number of swollen and tender joints. Additionally, the Ama Activity Measure (AAM) Score, which assesses the presence of toxins in the body, also showed a significant reduction post-intervention.

The research further explored the metabolic profiles of RA patients, comparing them to healthy controls. At the study's outset, RA patients exhibited elevated levels of certain metabolites, including succinate, lysine, mannose, creatine, and 3-Hydroxybutyrate (3-HB), alongside decreased alanine levels. However, following AWS treatment, these metabolic markers began to shift towards the levels observed in healthy individuals, indicating a return to a more balanced metabolic state.

As per the researchers, this study is the first of its kind to clearly demonstrate the clinical efficacy of AWS in managing RA. The intervention not only reduced symptoms but also promoted a metabolic environment conducive to homeostasis, potentially leading to long-term benefits for RA patients.

While these findings are promising, the study's authors emphasise the need for further research to confirm these preliminary results and to better understand the mechanisms through which AWS exerts its therapeutic effects.

This breakthrough underscores the potential of integrating traditional Ayurvedic practices with modern medical approaches to improve patient outcomes in chronic conditions like Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Is the Unified Pension Scheme Better Than NPS? What You Need to Know Before Switching to UPS in 2025

 Is the Unified Pension Scheme Better Than NPS? What You Need to Know Before Switching to UPS in 2025

A lot of people are wondering if the Unified Pension Scheme is actually better than the NPS. Is it a good idea to switch from NPS to UPS? What should I do? And what do the experts think about the UPS?

Switching from the National Pension Scheme (NPS) to the Unified Pension Scheme (UPS) requires careful consideration, particularly since the full details of the UPS are not yet finalized. Here are some factors to consider based on the available information:

Unified Pension Scheme Salient Features

Thinking about switching from the National Pension Scheme to the Unified Pension Scheme? With the Unified Pension Scheme launching on April 1, 2025, many government NPS subscribers are wondering if they should make the move. Check out this Unified Pension Scheme Salient Features and decide!

• Assured pension: You’ll get 50% of your average basic pay from the last year before retirement, but you need at least 25 years of service. If you’ve worked less, the amount will be adjusted for a minimum of 10 years.
• Assured family pension: Your family will receive 60% of your pension right before you pass away.
• Assured minimum pension: You’ll get at least ₹10,000 a month after retirement if you’ve served for at least ten years.
• Inflation indexation: This applies to the assured pension, family pension, and minimum pension.
• Dearness Relief is linked to the All India Consumer Price Index for Industrial Workers (AICPI-IW), with an average annual increase of about 5% over the last decade.
• You’ll also receive a lump sum at retirement, in addition to gratuity, which is 1/10th of your monthly pay (including DA) for every six months of service, without affecting your assured pension.

If you’re a government NPS subscriber, you can switch to the UPS, but you’ll need to transfer most of your NPS funds to the new scheme. For those in the UPS, the monthly contribution will be 10% of your basic pay plus DA, while the government will chip in 18.5%, which can vary based on actuarial assessments.

What is Experts Opinion About UPS vs NPS : Is the Unified Pension Scheme Better Than NPS?

According to the CNBCTV18.Com Report, here’s what it says:

“The announcement has sparked a debate among employees currently enrolled in the National Pension System (NPS) about whether they should transition to the new UPS.”

According to Krishan Mishra, CEO of FPSB India, one of the most appealing aspects of the UPS is its hybrid model.

“UPS will offer a combination of the stability of Old Pension System’s (OPS’s) fixed benefits with the flexibility and self-contribution features of NPS,” he explained.

Mishra pointed out that unlike OPS, which placed a significant financial burden on the government, the UPS is designed to cap this burden while ensuring that employees still receive a secure post-retirement income.

“The government is likely to find this approach more fiscally sustainable in the long term,” he added.

UPS offers increased pension security and predictable benefits

For individuals, the UPS offers increased pension security by blending the assured benefits of OPS with the market-based returns of NPS.

“Compared to NPS, UPS may offer more predictable benefits and security for retirees,” said Mishra.

He also pointed out that the government’s increased contribution from 14% to 18.5% is a welcome step that could enhance the overall pension outcomes.

However, the transition to UPS is not without challenges.

Mishra emphasized the potential market risks and the complexity of managing a hybrid pension system.

UPS not matches the Benefits of OPS

“While UPS offers more security than NPS, it might not match the full guaranteed benefits of OPS,” he cautioned.

A balanced solution?

Experts believe that the UPS has the potential to combine the best elements of both OPS and NPS.

However, they also acknowledged that political and logistical challenges could complicate the implementation of the scheme.

Additionally, the decision to switch from NPS to UPS depends on individual circumstances.

Younger employees should stay with NPS

Some suggest that younger employees should stay with NPS for potentially higher returns from equity market investments.

Others advocate for the UPS due to its guaranteed pension benefits, which could appeal more to employees closer to retirement.

Which is better, NPS or UPS?

The comparison between NPS and UPS raises the question of which option is better. UPS offers a guaranteed pension amount, whereas the pension amount from NPS is contingent upon the performance of investments in market-linked securities. While UPS ensures a fixed pension, NPS has the potential to yield a higher pension amount due to the possibility of greater returns from market investments. Employees who prefer a risk-free, guaranteed pension may find UPS to be more advantageous, whereas those willing to engage in market-based investments for potentially higher returns may favor NPS.

So you need to consider the above aspects and calculate the benefits in both schemes before taking a decision on NPS or UPS

Implementation of Unified Pension Scheme effect from 01.04.2025

 Implementation of Unified Pension Scheme effect from 01.04.2025

BRIEF
Ministry of Finance, Department of Expenditure

Dated: 24.08.2024

Unified Pension Scheme (UPS)

Cabinet has approved introduction of Unified Pension Scheme (UPS) to improve the National Pension System (NPS) for Central Government employees. Government employees have been representing that they need certainty in their pension, in particular assurances regarding pension, family pension, minimum pension and inflation indexation. While Government is keenly aware of these concerns, Government also has a responsibility to protect the interest of the common citizen so that pension does not lead to a huge burden of higher taxes for them in future.

Keeping this in view, Government had appointed a committee, headed by the Finance Secretary to review the existing NPS and to make recommendations in the matter. The Committee consulted the State Governments as well as the representatives of the employees and considered suggestions from associations, experts, etc. The Committee also looked at international experience and consulted the Reserve Bank of India. The Committee has now submitted its report. The UPS is based on the recommendations of the Committee.

The recommendations of the Committee were discussed with representatives of the employees through the Staff Side of the National Council of Joint Consultative Machinery (JCM). The employee representatives gave valuable suggestions to the Committee in reaching a broad consensus.

The Broad contours of UPS include the following:

Employees who have adequate service will get an assured pension of at least 50% of the last 12 months’ average salary as pension.

Minimum pension of Rs 10,000 per month will be given to those with at least 10 years’ service.

Family pension to spouse will be given @60% of the pension.

Dearness relief will be given on the assured pension, minimum pension and family pension.

In addition, a lumpsum will be provided at the time of retirement.

There will be no increase in the contribution from employees but Central Government will increase its contribution. Those who have already retired under NPS will also be eligible for this benefit. Arrears will be paid to such past retirees after adjusting the withdrawals already made by them.

The scheme details and eligibilities are given below.

The employee contribution shall remain un-altered at 10% of (Basic pay + DA). The Government contribution will increase from the present 14% to 18.5%. The pension corpus will be divided into two funds:

• an individual pension fund to which the employee contribution (10@% of basic pay and DA) and matching Government contribution will be credited.
• a separate pool corpus with additional Government contribution alone (18.5% of basic and DA of all employees).

The employee can exercise an investment choice for the individual pension corpus alone. The employee can withdraw upto 60% of the individual pension corpus with proportionate reduction in assured pension.

Assured Pension for minimum qualifying service of 25 years

Assured pension will be based on the ‘default mode’ of investment pattern notified by PFRDA and considering full annuitization of individual pension corpus. In case the benchmark annuity is lower than the assured annuity, the shortfall will be made good. In case the individual employee corpus generates higher than assured annuity (based on investment choice exercised by the employee), the employee will be entitled to such higher annuity. In case however, the annuity generated is lower than the default mode, the top up provided by Government through UPS will be limited to the benchmark annuity

Full assured pension will be available for a minimum qualifying service of 25 years. For lesser service, starting from at least 10 years, pro rata assured pension will be given.

Employees would have a choice to opt for UPS. An employee could choose to continue with the NPS, if s/he so desires.

The UPS will be given effect from 01.04.2025. The necessary administrative/ legal support framework will be put in place.

The scheme can also be adopted by State Governments. This is expected to benefit over 90 lakh employees (23 lakh Central Government employees, 3 lakh employees of Central Autonomous Bodies and another 56 lakh employees of State Governments and 10 lakh employees of State Autonomous Bodies, if adopted by the State Governments).

While benefiting the employees, it will also safeguard the welfare of the common citizens because the scheme will be fully funded, i.e. Government will fully pay its contribution each year and will not postpone the pension expenditure, thus preventing fiscal hardship to future generations of citizens.

High Court Defends Pension Rights, Overrules GPF Deduction Lapse

 High Court Defends Pension Rights, Overrules GPF Deduction Lapse

 Allahabad High Court ruled that an employee cannot be denied pension due to the employer’s fault in not allotting a General Provident Fund (GPF) number. Justice Subhash Vidyarthi emphasized that GPF deductions are not a prerequisite for pension eligibility and that the petitioner was not responsible for the non-deduction of his contributions.

The petitioner, an Assistant teacher appointed in 2004, faced salary payment issues initially resolved by the High Court. However, no GPF deductions were made until 2022, when the petitioner was close to retirement. The petitioner retired on March 31, 2023, but did not receive his pension, leading him to approach the High Court again.

The Court noted that a government order from 1978 provided pension rights to permanent, full-time teachers in state-aided institutions similar to government school teachers, even if no GPF deductions were made. It highlighted that GPF deduction is not a condition for pension eligibility under Rule 6 of the U.P. General Provident Fund, Insurance, and Pension Scheme Rules.

The Court further stated that since the petitioner was not responsible for the absence of GPF deductions, he should not suffer for the employer’s oversight. Consequently, the Court allowed the petition and directed payment of pension arrears to the petitioner.
