For many years, employees have been demanding
DAs of central government employees are updated twice a year from January to July. DA is calculated by multiplying the current rate of dearness allowance by the basic salary. DA is given to government employees, public sector employees, and pensioners. It is used to help employees pay for living expenses. Cabinet members will be laid off if the central government decides to do this in a meeting. There has been a long-standing demand for the stuck money of DA arrears from the employees.
The Prime Minister can resolve the issue
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been informed of the 18-month arrears. Pensioners Forum of India has also written to the Prime Minister regarding arrears payments. BMS has also asked the Prime Minister to intervene and direct the Finance Ministry to release the arrears of DA and DR withheld between January 1, 2020, and June 30, 2021, as soon as possible.
