Lucknow: The Uttar Pradesh Cabinet under the
leadership of Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav on Tuesday approved the
recommendations of the seventh pay commission.
As per new salary
structure, entry salary that is of the lowest rung will be around Rs
18,000 and pay for highest office of Chief second will be around Rs 2.25
lakh.
Addressing the
media on Tuesday over the big decision taken few months before the Uttar
Pradesh Assembly polls, Akhilesh Yadav said that the pay hike will be
implemented from January 17.
Claiming that the decision is in the
favour of the people, Yadav asserted that the 2017 UP Assembly elections
will be historic. "We will win and if the alliance happens, we will
cross 300 plus seats."
Earlier, a committee constituted by state
government had submitted it's report to the UP CM recommending pay hike
at par with central government employees.
Through this move, around 24 lakh employees and pensioners will be benefited.
Attacking Prime Minister Narendra Modi over demonetisation decision,
Yadav said, "We all want black money to end but, demonetisation without
adequate preparation has thrown people in trouble. Farmers are in
distress. Those who were talking of 50 days are now talking of 50 more
days."
Hinting at UP Assembly elections, he asserted that those
who are standing in queues outside banks to get cash today, will soon
stand in lines to teach a lesson to the Centre.
Rejecting the claims of rift in the party, he said that such issues keep coming up.
