New Delhi: Finance Ministry sources today said on condition of
anonymity, there is no scope to major changes in 7th Pay Commission
recommendations.
The sources came up with the remark while talking to us about hiking
of pay scales of all central government employees and officials by the
Empowered Committee of Secretaries than the 7th Pay Commission
recommendations.
Those who will hope over this issue will gain nothing but some minor
changes on 7th Pay Commission recommendations of pay scales are
possible, they added.
Replying to a question, the sources said, “The demand of central
government employees over their pay scales is likely to be lightly
considered by the Empowered Committee of Secretaries.
They said adding “Though Finance minister Arun Jaitley had promised
them that they will get proper pay scales with hiking minimum pay of
lower paid employees, after the review of the new pay scales by the
Empowered Committee of Secretaries.”
The 7th Pay Commission headed by Justice A K Mathur recommended on
November 19, the highest basic salary at Rs 250,000 and the lowest at Rs
18,000 and its increased the pay gap between the minimum and maximum
from existing 1:12 to 1:13.8, while all pay commissions made up pay gap
between employees and officers from second Pay Commission 1:41 ratio to
Sixth pay commission 1:12.
A 13-member secretary-level Empowered Committee headed by Cabinet
Secretary P K Sinha was formed by the central government in January to
review the 7th Pay Commission proposals before cabinet nod.
