Central Govt. employees may get good news today related to the allowance. A
high level committee of secretaries can meet today on the allowances. The
committee, headed by Ashok Lavasa, has given its review report to the seventh
Pay Commission on Finance Minister Arun Jaitley a month ago.
There is no
official announcement of this meeting, but if some media reports agree, then on
May 24 this committee of secretaries can be held. Cabinet Secretary PK Sinha,
including Home Ministry, Personnel and Training, Health and Family Welfare,
Railway officials can participate in the meeting on the seventh pay commission.
These are
the main things:
1. Increase
in arrears and basic pay on revised allowances are two main issues. Central
employees are getting allowances at the old rates.
2. If Ashok
admits the Advisory Committee of Lavasa Committee of the Secretaries, then the
report will be sent to the Central Cabinet for final approval and the reports
of Lavasa on the allowance can be presented to the Modi government this week.
3. On the
performance of the central employees, the Modi government gave finance
secretary Ashok Lavasa the task of reviewing the recommendations of the Seventh
Pay Commission by the Modi government.
4. The
Seventh Pay Commission had advised to eliminate 52 allowances out of 196
allowances for central workers and 36 minor allowances were said to be included
in large allowances.
5. In
another recommendation, according to the category of cities, there was a
reduction of 2 to 6 per cent in house rent allowance.
6. After the
recommendations of the Ashok Lavasa panel's implementation, about 50 lakh
central workers will be benefitted.
