The Govt is summarily responsible for such vague laws, taking advantage of loop holes and loot the public. Irrespective of any Govt., their job is to shave salaried public only. You will still observe tax cheating big moneyed people, some politicians etc. But the Govt will completely shave ours. We should be ashamed of being in India under such conditions. Be it any FM, their focus is on the tax paying salaried people ONLY. We must unianimously protest to get our rights exercised. Let us join all the groups. Let us be united. more

I am Agreed with SARAVANAN MANOHARAN, the money is earned by us the (employee) and to withdraw our money only we will have ti wait till 58 years. or we can withdraw only the 50% of the employee share is not a good practice. if you need the money for marriage, construction of house, new house, land purchage, etc. then we should be able to remove the entire amount which is there in our PF Account. more

permanent withdrawl for purchase of dwelling house, marraige of dependents still hold good. Since Govt. is thinking of paying interest on dormant accounts, for withdrawal of full amount without any further employment, one will have to wait till attaining the age of 58 yrs. more
