Winston Peters' State Of The Nation - 'Make New Zealand First Again'

Explained: First 4, then 3 and now 2%, how much did the salary of government employees increase..

^{Published on 2025-03-29 01:00:42 - Newspoint}

- The Union Cabinet chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on March 28 approved a 2 percent increase in Dearness Allowance (DA) for central employees and Dearness Relief (DR) for pensioners. Now the dearness allowance of central employees will increase from 53 percent to 55 percent.

The article from MSN discusses the recent changes in the salary structure for government employees in India. Initially, the government announced a 4% increase in Dearness Allowance (DA) in March 2020, which was later revised to a 3% hike in June 2021 due to economic constraints caused by the global health crisis. However, in a recent development, the government has now approved a 2% increase in DA, effective from January 1, 2023. This adjustment aims to provide some relief to government employees amidst rising inflation and cost of living. The DA is calculated as a percentage of the basic salary, and this increment will also affect other allowances linked to DA, like House Rent Allowance (HRA), thereby providing a slight boost to the overall compensation of government workers.
