According to the sources available on history, the total expenditure on pension in year 1920 was Rs. 2, 155,792.10. The total expenditure on basic salaries during same year was Rs. 20,889,613.38. Further the total number of pensioners in the same year was 1200. Rs. 1,249,833.29 put of the total expenditure on pension had been paid for the local workers and further an amount of Rs. 905,958.87 had been paid through Crown Agent for foreign workers as the number of such workers in Government service was as a considerable level. Widows and orphans’ pension, which had been introduced by Widows and Orphans’ Pension Ordinance No 01 of 1898, had been implemented up to 1906 as a Widows and orphans’ fund. However it has been transformed to a pension scheme with the abolition of the fund in 1906. Accordingly all the contributions, which have been recovered, have been credited to the Consolidated Fund of the Government. As a result of this measure, payment of Widows and Orphans’ pension has become a burden to the Consolidated Fund.
