7th Pay Commission: Enhanced allowances with arrears to be paid in January

7th Pay Commission: Enhanced allowances with arrears to be paid in January
New Delhi: The government is going to pay of enhanced allowances to its 4.8 million central government employees according to 7th Pay Commission recommendations in January along with five months arrears, when situation will return to normalcy after cash crunch period.
The payments will be made after cabinet nod following the the committee on allowances report, the finance ministry source said.
The government has to pay the arrears of enhanced allowances this time because the enhanced allowances under recommendations of 7th Pay Commission have not been paid in August when the pay hike and its arrears were paid, he added.


The committee on allowances, which was set up in July this year on the direction of the cabinet, is looking into the provision of allowances other than dearness allowance under the 7th Pay Commission recommendations as the pay commission had recommended of abolishing 51 allowances and subsuming 37 others out of 196 allowances.
The committee met up with the deadline of four months given to it by the cabinet to submit the report, the official revealed.
We are ready to submit our report, when the Finance Minister Arun Jaitley calls up, the committee on allowances head Finance Secretary Ashok Lavasa said recently.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi scrapped Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 notes, which accounted for 86% of all cash in the economy, in a move to catch out Indians with black money, earned by corrupt means or evading taxes. But a bumpy rollout of the new currency has seen millions of people line up outside banks and ATMs.
The situation is worse in in all India. There is an acute shortage of cash supply. Dirty, soiled and non-issuable notes are also being re-circulated.
So, people continue to suffer after demonetisation from November 9 on account of cash crunch and it compels the Finance Minister Arun Jaitley to keep in abeyance the enhanced allowances till things normalize and it is likely to implement from January next with arrears, Finance Ministry official today told on condition of anonymity.

   G.D.S. BROTHERS ALERT 

BHARATIYA EXTRA DEPARTMETNAL EMPLOYEES UNION

                        T-21, Atul Grove Road New Delhi- 110 001

Dear friends ,
        You are all aware of it that presently there are rumors throughout the country. The rumors and gossips are rising high after receiving the payment order of arrear bonus to the regular employees. Friends, We have to be beware of all of this ill conspiracy.
       Friends, you all aware of it that on 29.08.2016 joint Dharna at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi with the joint action of BPEF , GENC , BEDEU on the demand of raising bonus ceiling to Rs 7000/- took place with great excitement and on the same day i.e. on 29.08.2016 the Government issued the order of raising bonus ceiling to Rs 7000/-
      In case of getting arrear bonus to the GDS employees , I ensure that the Gramin Dak Sevak employees will get the arrear bonus with raising ceiling. The matter has been taken up with the Finance Ministry and the Finance Ministry forward the file to the GDS Committee. On receiving approval from the GDS Committee the case is now lying again with the Finance Ministry. We may certainly expect that the order of raising bonus ceiling to the GDS employees  will be issued by the Government within this week.
     There are so many gossips and rumors and anti- government, anti-employee sentiments. A group of unions are making so many declarations for proposal of strike, deputation etc for the fulfillment  of demands for bonus arrear etc. But in practical , they are playing with the sentiment of the innocent employees. When the Government , the Minister in charge of the Ministry of Communication assure us that our demand for raising bonus ceiling also the the GDS employees will be considered. Then there is no meaning of arising tensed situation. This group of unions are doing such only to make business with the innocent employees. They are doing nothing but will collect donations from the hard earning  bonus amount from the innocent employees. But all should beware of the fact that such type of cheating and humiliation to the innocent employees will not continue days after days.
     I assure all the GDS employees that our union BEDEU as well as BPEF will only fight for the right and will fulfill our demands with every effort. So friends in this situation where the sovereignty of our country is in a stake I appeal all to keep close watch and wait for right moment.
