New Delhi: According to big news, now 18 months of Dearness Allowance or DA of central employees stopped during the Corona epidemic will no longer be given. In fact, in response to a written question in the Lok Sabha, the Modi government has informed that during the Corona period, 34,402 rupees were spent by the government by deducting the dearness allowance of the central employees. 32 crores have been saved. The government has used this money in the fight to overcome the corona epidemic.
Please inform that, during the Corona period, three installments of dearness allowance and dearness relief for central employees and pensioners were not received. At the same time, dearness allowance and dearness relief for January 2020, July 2020, and January 2021 were also not given. Along with this, the Modi government has clarified that at present the budget deficit is double as compared to the provisions of the FRBM Act, so this time it is not proposed to give DA.
It may be known that from today, 18 lakh government employees in Maharashtra are going on an indefinite strike regarding the old pension scheme. In fact, on Monday itself, the Action Committee had a meeting with Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, but then this meeting could not reach any result. In such a situation, due to this strike of employees, the necessary work in hospitals, schools, colleges, semi-administrative offices, and ministries can also be affected.
