Federation Leaders associated with National Council JCM are keep telling
that Allowance Committee might submit its report on 20th February 2017.
The CG Staff are already very much upset over the Government’s
deliberate attempt to delay the payment of Allowances by constituting
many committees. Because the payment of revised Allowances is
considered will impact the Governments Exchequers.Lot of Committees
formed and Meetings held after the Notification issued for
implementation of 7th CPC Recommendations. But there is no any fruitful
outcome from these meetings. No sign of making decisions which satisfy
the Central government employees.
Had the Allowance like HRA is paid in revised rates from the date of
Notification ie 25th July 2016, it seems more beneficial than waiting
for the subcommittee reports. Because if revised allowances are not
given retrospective effect, it will be a huge loss for Central
Government Servants.Reports suggests that the Allowance Committee may
submit its report on 20th February 2017 and it will be notified with
effect from 1st April 2017. Federation sources told that It is
unacceptable and we will fight it out until the revised allowances
implemented with effect from 1.1.2016
