8th Pay Commission: The Central Government has given a big gift to the government employees and the Union Cabinet has approved the 8th Pay Commission. The employees and pensioners of the Central Government were eagerly waiting for the 8th Pay Commission and the government has given them this gift. Soon a committee will be formed for this and the process of forming the 8th Pay Commission will be started. Today the Union Cabinet meeting was held at the residence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and this decision was approved under the chairmanship of PM Modi.
The demand was being made for a long time
The organizations of the central employees had met the Cabinet Secretary for this and demanded the formation of the 8th Pay Commission and these organizations were constantly pressurizing the government to form the 8th Pay Commission. In the last one year, several times the employee unions have demanded the central government to clarify the situation. When Finance Secretary TV Somanathan was questioned about this after the last budget, he said that we still have enough time for this work.
7th Pay Commission implemented from January 1, 2016
The 7th Pay Commission was implemented in the country from January 1, 2016. This benefited about 1 crore people. Since the Pay Commission is implemented every 10 years, it is now expected that the Narendra Modi government at the Center will implement the 8th Pay Commission from January 1, 2026. This is expected to bring a big change in the minimum wage and pension.
A new commission comes every 10 years
More than 10 years have passed since the formation of the last Pay Commission. Usually the next Pay Commission is formed every 10 years. There is also usually a gap of 10 years between the implementation of the recommendations of the new Pay Commission in place of the old Pay Commission. In such a situation, the formation of the Eighth Pay Commission became necessary.
When was the previous commission formed?
The 7th Pay Commission was formed on 28 February 2014 during the tenure of former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. The 7th Pay Commission submitted its recommendations to the Central Government in November 2015, about one and a half years later. After that, the recommendations of the 7th Pay Commission came into effect from 1 January 2016, which are still in force.
