Hike in dearness allowance
In the month of July, the central government had given great news to the central employees by increasing the rate of dearness allowance. In the month of July, the central government had increased the dearness allowance to central employees from 17 percent to 28 percent.
After this, the dearness allowance was increased by 3 percent, after which the central employees are getting dearness allowance at the rate of 31 percent.
Due to the outbreak of Corona epidemic in the country, dearness allowance to central employees was stopped from May 2020 to June 2021.
Prime Minister can take a decision soon regarding the outstanding DA
The dearness allowance of central employees is pending for 18 months, regarding which the employees also staged a sit-in in the month of September. Employees have also sent a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi in this regard.
Now such speculations are being made that by the end of the month of November, Prime Minister Modi can take a big decision regarding this.
Employees demand to increase fitment factor
