The Jammu and Kashmir government joint consultative committee (JCC) has urged Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti not to defer the recommendations of the seventh Pay Commission and implement the same at the earliest.
"It is very unfortunate that the state government decided to defer the implementation of the seventh Pay Commission by two years, we urge the state government to implement the recommendations at the earliest," JCC member Amrik Singh said today.
He said while the state government has enhanced the salaries of the MLAs and MLCs, the reluctance to implement the recommendation of the seventh pay commission for the employee was an "injustice" with the working community.
Singh said that the JCC would be left with no other option but to launch an agitation for the implementations of the recommendations of the pay commission.
