The first dearness allowance (DA) hike of 2023 for over 50 lahks Central Government Employees are expected to be announced on March 17, today.
Lakhs of government employees are currently waiting for a 4% DA hike. Amid all this, there is a giant buzz considering the 8th Pay Commission. In 2022, the Union government denied the claim and said that there will not be an 8th Central Pay Commission to revise salaries, allowances, and pensions of Central Government Employees and pensioners.
Union Minister of State for Finance Pankaj Chaudhary, in a written reply, had said that there was no such proposal to consider. He was replying to the question "whether it is a fact that the Government is considering not constituting the 8th Central Pay Commission (CPC) to revise salaries, allowances, and pension of Central Government employees and pensioners."
