7th pay commission: With the arrival of 2019, good news came for the employees of these states. Amidst the central government employees 'demand of rise in salary and change in fitment factor, government staff of this state will now get a dearness allowance (DA) at 125 per cent of their basic salary.
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Thursday announced that the government employees of the state will get DA at 125 per cent of their basic pay from this month, while assuring the employees of clearing all the dues by January.
The decision to pay DA at 125 per cent from January was taken by the West Bengal government in June 2018, a leader of the West Bengal State Coordination Committee informed PTI on Thursday.
Earlier in December, the government of Maharashtra has decided to implement 7th Pay Commission recommendation in giving salary to employees. This was a long standing demand of employees and there have been several stand-offs between the government and employees.
Earlier, 17 lakh employees in Maharshtra went on a 3-day strike, demanding a pay hike and the earliest implementation of the seventh pay recommendations. However, it should be noted that around 1.5 lakh gazetted officers withdrew from the strike after a Government Resolution (GR) was issued stating that the pending arrears of the Dearness Allowance (DA) for a period of 14 months will be paid to them.
The decision is significant as next year is very important for Maharashtra politically. Not only there is Lok Sabha polls but assembly polls are also slated to be held later in the year.
