Merged Units and Provident Fund Confusion: Can Workers Access Their Funds?

Suppose A and B are two units of the same organization, and A has merged into B. This information has been communicated by the organization to their workers; there are no changes in the terms and conditions of the company. However, the organization created a new P.F. account only for the workers of 'A', and the old P.F. account has been closed for 8 months.

Questions Regarding P.F. Account Changes

1. What will be the case?
2. Is it possible to withdraw? If yes, please provide details.

Dear Sir,

Employees of Organization A who were merged into Organization B and are currently working in Organization A can apply for the transfer of their P.F. accounts from A to B.

Employees who have left Organization A and are not employed in Organization B can apply for the withdrawal of their PF amount.
