This move comes in the wake of the BSNL employees protesting demanding salary hikes and promotions and pension revision according to the recommendations made by the 3rd Pay Commission. This according to them is applicable every 10 years. Their demands are likely to be addressed only in the next budget session.

On the other hand a notification was released by the Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions, which speaks of a five fold hike in incentives. The incentives would be applicable to the following:

  • PhD or equivalent: Rs 30,000
  • PG degree/diploma of duration of more than a year or equivalent: Rs 25,000
  • PG degree/diploma of duration of less than one year or equivalent: Rs 20,000
  • Degree/Diploma of duration of more than 3 years or equivalent: Rs 15,000
  • Degree/Diploma of duration of less than 3 years or equivalent: Rs 10,000

Amidst all the pale and gloom, this news comes as some relief for lakhs of CG employees. The 7th Pay Commission had recommended a hike of Rs 18,000 in the basic minimum pay, but the CG employees have been demanding Rs 26,000.
