Govt. to study Seventh Pay Commission report in right perspective: Jitendra Singh
Minister of State in the Prime Minister's Office Jitendra Singh on Sunday said the government will study the Seventh Central Pay Commission report in the right perspective.
"There is a procedure for the pay commission. It is better to speak on it then when the procedure is done. The DoPT department has done many revolutionary works within 17-18 months under Prime Minister Narendra Modi," Singh told the media here.
The Seventh Central Pay Commission had on Thursday submitted its report to the government in which it has recommended a 23.55 percent hike in salary, allowances and pension to the Central Government employees and pensioners.
There are about 47 lakh Central Government employees and 52 lakh pensioners.
