CHP's Erol makes a statement about pension increases.

Important developments are taking place regarding pension increases and holiday bonuses. CHP Elazığ MP Gürsel Erol highlighted the financial struggles of retirees.

Erol stated that millions of retirees with a base salary below 10,000 TL are waiting for an increase that depends on legal regulations. He called on the Turkish Grand National Assembly to prioritize this issue.

Erol emphasized that 'the condition of retirees is not an advertisement, but a matter of conscience,' expressing the difficulties retirees face with rising prices in markets. He mentioned hearing countless complaints from retirees.

CHP Niğde MP Ömer Fethi Gürer also stated that the holiday bonuses for retirees need to be increased. He pointed out that the financial struggles of retirees are growing every day.

Gürer remarked, 'Retirees cannot make ends meet, and those who want to retire cannot do so due to low pensions,' calling for a uniform increase of 15,000 TL for all retirees.

In conclusion, urgent steps need to be taken to improve the living standards of retirees. The government is expected to take action on this matter.
