Government Employees: In MP, Mohan government has given the gift of increase in 13 types of allowances including transport and house rent to seven lakh employees in the Indian New Year. The increase has been decided afresh on the basis of 7th pay commission, which will be 5-10%. The government will incur an annual expenditure of 1500 crores. Employees will benefit from this. Re-determination of allowances was approved in the cabinet meeting chaired by CM Dr. Mohan Yadav. Employees were also waiting for DA increase, but it did not happen.

Allowance increased after salon

Regarding this decision, the employee organizations say that it is a good thing that the allowance has been increased after so many years, but it is not enough. State General Secretary of the Third Class Employees Union, Umashankar Tiwari, says that allowances have been received after 13 years but they are very less. The employees of Madhya Pradesh will get an increase in house rent allowance from 945 to 7915. If this increase was done as per the centre, then the employees would have got a lot of relief in this inflation.

Tiwari says that this allowance will also be provided after 13 years from the previous order and 9 years after the seventh pay commission. That too is not according to inflation. Employees were hoping that the government is delaying it and employees will get proper benefits but this has not been received as expected.
