2021 is going well for government employees. Because the Modi government is completely kind to them. The government has made it clear that they will not cut their allowances and other perks. In the Rajya Sabha, Minister of State for Finance Pankaj Choudhary himself announced this. In fact, there was fear about the cut in allowances to the government employees. To remove his fear, a Rajya Sabha member asked a question to the Minister of State for Finance about this.
Fear of being cut off Transport Allowance
Work From Home (WFH) was adopted in many government departments in the lockdown caused by the Covid 19 Mahamari. That is, when the employees were working from home, they felt that the government could withdraw the Transport Allowance (TA) during that period. When the question came in front of Pankaj Chaudhary about this, he said that the government is not thinking of doing anything like this. This means that TA during WFH will not be withdrawn from government employees.
Allowances increased from July 1
The minister informed that the government has released the installments of Dearness Allowance/Dearness Relief in respect of Central Government employees/pensioners from July 01, 2021, which are dated 01.01.2020, 01.07.2020 and 01.01.2021. was payable from Central Government employees/pensioners will get Dearness Allowance/Dearness Relief from July, 2021 at the rate of 28% (11% over the existing rate of 17%). He also pointed out that the recommendations of the 7th Central Pay Commission have already been implemented as far as the salaries and allowances of Central Government employees are concerned.
