HRA 30% , 27% or 24% ? All eyes on cabinet meet today
The wait to get clarity on allowances like House Rent Allowance (HRA) and Dearness Allowance (DA) under the 7th Pay Commission may be over on Wednesday as the Cabinet is likely to convene a meeting and announce its decision.
One crore Central Government employees and pensioners are waiting for news on their arrears and allowances like HRA and DA.
The 7th Pay Commission had recommended HRA too be fixed at 24%, 16% and 8% depending on the cities employees work in.
However, employees were not happy with this increase and demanded 30%, 24% and 16% HRA.
Hope a better discussion today....
