7th Pay Commission: Arrears on Allowances to Impact Exchequer? Employee Forum Says No
Mohammed Uzair Shaikh August 5, 2017 4:04 PM IST
"There is no question of HRA and other allowances impacting inflation because they have been rolled-out without arrears," NJCA chief Shiv Gopal Mishra said.

"Except for Group C employees not being granted the (HRA) benefits, we can say the Cabinet's decision was satisfactory. Even the decision of increasing HRA when DA crosses 25 per cent, instead of 50, should be lauded," top union leader Shiv Gopal Mishra told India.com.

The decision, if announced today, will end a long wait for some 50 lakh government employees, who might get arrears and hikes from next month.

"At the time, we thought it is in the best interest of the employees to compromise our stand and allow government to take 4 months to address our demands," Shiv Gopal Mishra told India.com.

The report on allowances was submitted last week by Finance Secretary Ashok Lavasa.

"The exploitation is akin to the conditions prevailing for workers before May 1, 1886. Railway sector employees are forced to work 12 hours a day."
Mohammed Uzair Shaikh April 24, 2017 6:28 PM IST
"The non-timely implementation by Government has further agonised the employees. The question now is - how long should we wait?"

Apart from delay in higher allowances, the JCM would also formulate the strategy for availing 'option 1' for pensioners.

The scenario will only emerge clearer when Ashok Lavasa Committee submits its report in the next week.

There had been reports that the Committee on Allowances was likely to suggest to raise HRA to 30 per cent of the basic pay as against the 24 per cent recommended by the 7th Pay Commission.
Mohammed Uzair Shaikh April 13, 2017 1:22 AM IST
The NJCA chief, however, did not rule out the possibility of calling the strike. "If situation comes down to it, we can call the strike. We have not called off the strike but only deferred it," Mishra said.
Mohammed Uzair Shaikh April 11, 2017 4:51 PM IST
"Minimum salary is an important issue. We will surely negotiate it with the Government. Once the matter pertaining to allowances and pensions gets settled, the NJCA will raise it," Shiv Gopal Mishra said while speaking to India.com.
Mohammed Uzair Shaikh April 6, 2017 5:49 AM IST
"There is no confirmation given to us regarding the same. The committee on allowances is yet to finalise its report," NJCA convenor Shiv Gopal Mishra said.
Mohammed Uzair Shaikh April 5, 2017 4:50 PM IST
"Government had allocated Rs 1 lakh, two thousand crores for implementation of 7th Pay Commission. That amount has not been completely spent," NJCA chief Shiv Gopal Mishra said.
