DA Hike: The Assam government on Sunday approved a 3 per cent hike in dearness allowance (DA) for state government employees. State Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said that the cabinet has approved it. According to ANI report, the Chief Minister said that the increase in DA is a Diwali gift from the government to the employees. This is the second time this year that the Assam government has increased the DA for its employees. In March, the state government had increased the dearness allowance by 4 per cent, increasing it from 46 per cent to 50 per cent.

Total DA increased to 53 per cent

He said that this increase will be effective from July this year. The state Chief Minister said, “With this, the total DA will be 53 per cent, which is equal to the central government employees.” He said that the increased dearness allowance will be payable with retrospective effect from July and the outstanding amount will be paid in four equal installments with the monthly salary from January to April next year.

Salary with revised DA from December

The CM said that the employees will get salary with revised DA from December. The cabinet also decided to abolish the earlier provision in the Assam Tea Plantation Provident Fund Scheme, under which tea garden workers with monthly salary of more than Rs 15,000 were barred from getting PF benefits. The Chief Minister said, “Since the salary of the workers is increasing now, we do not want anyone to be deprived of PF benefits.”
