Higher Allowances for central staff likely from 1st April

7th Pay Commission: Govt not to hike minimum pay, higher allowances to be paid from April 1.

No Arrears likely.

 In a setback to central government employees, Centre has decided not to hike minimum pay under the 7th Pay Commission recommendations. Higher allowances and minimum pay under the 7th Pay Commission have been the major bone of contention among majority of the central government employees. The government seems in no mood to increase minimum pay of Rs 18,000 under the 7th Pay Commission. Though the government is expected to announce higher allowances in March, it had no plan to give allowances in arrears from August.
