Rajasthan launches composite salary account scheme for government staff and pensioners

The state government of Rajasthan announced a new composite salary account package aimed at its civil servants and eligible pensioners. Under the scheme, salary and pension disbursements will be credited to a single bank account, simplifying financial transactions for beneficiaries.
The initiative is part of the administration's broader effort to streamline payroll processes and promote digital banking among public sector workers. Officials said the unified account will reduce paperwork, lower transaction costs, and enhance transparency in fund transfers.
Implementation is expected to begin in the coming weeks, with participating banks instructed to set up the necessary infrastructure. The government will roll out the scheme in phases, covering all departments and pension schemes across the state.
Stakeholders have welcomed the move, noting that a single account arrangement can help employees manage their finances more efficiently and align with the national push for financial inclusion.
