DA Merger would have been more beneficial than Pay Commission

DA MERGER WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE BENEFICIAL THAN PAY COMMISSION

The 7th CPC submitted its report in November 2015. The Empowered Committee of Secretaries blocked it for 7 long months. Finally the cabinet approved the report without any modification, The Gazette Notification on the pay and allowances of employees was issued on 25-07-2016.
