ANSWER
MINISTER OF THE STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF FINANCE (SHRI NAMO NARIAN MEENA)
(a)&fb): Increase in Dearness Allowance payable to Central Government employees
with effect from January, 2011 will be worked out on basis of accepted formula
which is based on the recommendation of 6th Central Pay Commission.
(ch(d) &(e): No proposal to
declare DA as dearness pay, after DA crosses 50% is under consideration of the
Government. The Sixth Pay Commission did not recommend merger of
dearness allowance with Basic Pay at any stage. Government accepted this
recommendation vide Government of India Resolution dated 29.8.2008.
what a shame UPA government. They are increasing all the entitlements of parliament members. They said they accept recommendations of the 6th CPC. But in fact they revised it to their will and fancy. eg.
ReplyDelete(i)after accepting the recommendations of 6CPCthe grade pay assistants in central secretariat revised from Rs. 4200/- to 4600with effect from 1/1/2006 but the other caders such as Auditors/Sr. Auditors of C&AG were not revised so far
(ii) the group B status was given by 6CPC to those having grade Pay of Rs.4200 and more but this was not notified in the case of Sr.Auditors in IA&AD
(ii) The Group Insurance contribution has not revised so far
No proposal to declare DA as dearness pay, after DA crosses 50% is under consideration of the Government.
