The cabinet meeting is likely to be held on Tuesday noon and in today's meeting the govt will make the correction in the mistake it did while taking the decision about Revision of Pay for the employees and pensioners of state govt in April . It is really very surprising that the State going on quite contrary line of the 7th CPC , state govt gave the effect of Pay and Pension Revision from 1st April 2017 instead of 1st January 2016. Again while calculatingthe minimum pay of the lowest level of employee state govt made a grave wrong in thesl no of 'clothing ' section by multiplying 5.50 with 164.88. While the correctresult after multiplication would have been 906.84 the govt kept it 164.88 ,a grave wrong . However, it is learnt that though the govt will rectify the ROP , it will not increase the minimum pay of the lowest level employee w.e.f 1st April 2017. | 11-Jul-2017 |
