Addressing the media at the Secretariat, Law Minister Ratanlal Nath said, except West Bengal, no other state had increased pays of the employees due to COVID-crisis. He also claimed that Mamata Banerjee hiked it for election purposes.
But, though Ratanlal Nath claimed that no other state increased pay except West Bengal and Tripura but Kerala and Delhi also hiked pays recently. Infact Delhi hiked DA as per 7th Pay Commission.
However, still something is better than nothing. So, employees and pensioners are happy over the announcement.
