Brother,
Sub: Merger
of 50% DA with Pay and grant of Interim Relief.
NFIR has been writing
to the Government of India (including Prime Minister, Finance Minister etc) for
merger of 50% DA with pay through its letters dated 10/01/2013, 05/08/2013,
27/09/2013. Also in its 27th National Convention held at Visakhapatnam from
10th to 12th December, 2013, the Federation had passed a resolution
demanding merger of 50% DA with Pay and grant of interim relief to employees of
Central Government including Railway employees.
NFIR feels happy to
convey that the Central Government has conceded the demand of the employees
raised by the Federation.
Union Cabinet is
likely to consider the issues to day for taking final decision. Federation will
advise decision when taken by the Government. Federation expects
that there may be Good News for all Central Government employees very soon.
Yours
faithfully,
sd/-
