Now a special cabinet meeting has been called on Friday. In this, there is bound to be a big announcement for the central employees.

The track record of the Modi government has been that it takes such decisions, which no one thinks about. If sources are to be believed, the cabinet meeting was proposed on Wednesday, but it was not done due to some reasons. That’s why the government has called a special meeting of the cabinet on Friday (March 17).

In this, arrears of two months January and February will be given. The total dearness allowance of employees with a basic salary of Rs 18,000 will increase by Rs 720 per month. They will also be given arrears in the same proportion.

Pensioners will also get benefit

The government refused to give the arrears of dearness allowance for 18 months during the recent Lok Sabha session. In such a situation, the increase in dearness allowance of 4% will be a great relief. With this, pensioners will also benefit along with the employees. There are a total of more than 52 lakh pensioners and more than 60 lakh central employees. The dearness allowance and dearness relief of all these are set to increase.

Why only 4% DA Hike happened?

The Labor Bureau calculates dearness allowance and dearness relief for employees and pensioners under the 7th pay commission. For this, calculation is done on the basis of Consumer Price Index (CPI-IW). The Labor Bureau is part of the Ministry of Labour. For January 2023, 4% has been increased.

From the CPI-IW data released on January 31, 2023, it was decided that there would be an increase of 4.23% in dearness allowance. But, it is given in round figure, so the total increase is 4%. Now it has to be approved.
