recommendations
The Government has
decided to implement the recommendations of the 7th Central Pay Commission
relating to pay, pension and related issues. The
requisite notifications are being issued shortly.
The increase in pay
as recommended by the 7th Central Pay commission is based on the detailed
deliberations by the Commission keeping in view all relevant factors having a
bearing upon the prevailing circumstances
Employee
Associations of Central Government had given a call for strike with effect from
11.07.2016 which has since been deferred. However, the Government is responsive
to the concerns of the Employees’ Association and it would be the endeavour of
the Government to ensure that the eventuality of a strike does not arise.
In view of the
multiplication factor having been accepted based on the recommendations of the
7th Central Pay commission, no such proposal is under consideration of the
Government, at present.
