The
wait to get clarity on allowances like House Rent Allowance (HRA)
and Dearness Allowance (DA) under the 7th Pay Commission may be over
on Wednesday as the Cabinet is likely to convene a meeting and announce its
decision.
One
crore Central Government employees and pensioners are waiting for
news on their arrears and allowances like HRA and DA.
The
7th Pay Commission had recommended HRA too be fixed at 24%, 16% and
8% depending on the cities employees work in.
However,
employees were not happy with this increase and demanded 30%, 24% and 16%
HRA.
