"Release of additional installment of DA by the Central Govt. is an increase of 2 per cent over the existing rate of 5 per cent of the basic pay/pension, to compensate for price rise," Shastri said this while addressing NMC workers meet here. He said that the new rate will be applicable from January,1 2018.He said the dearness allowance and dearness relief are provide to employees both in central/state governments and pensioners to neutralize the impact of inflation on their earnings. Shastri said that this becomes necessary as Central Government has already released this DA installment to its employees and pensioners hence, any delay in the release of this installment of DA to the employees of the state Govt. and pensioners would ultimately pile-up the arrears thus adding extra burden on State Government.
