Sixth Pay Commission: Forces introduce draft notification
NEW DELHI, Sept. 29: The armed forces on Monday initiated the move to issue draft notification for their new pay-packages (Sixth Pay Commission) following the formation of a high-level three-member ministerial committee to take up the issue of disparities in salaries of armed forces personnel vis-a-vis the paramilitary forces and civilian bureaucracy.
The government had announced the new packages for the armed forces in August after making certain modifications in the recommendations of the Sixth Central Pay Commission report.
The armed forces had earlier refused to implement their new pay-packages in protest against these pay-disparities.
Indian Navy Chief and Chairman of the Chief of Staffs Committee Admiral Sureesh Mehta had earlier written to all naval personnel explaining the reasons for delay in the issue of the draft notification. But the Indian Army, Navy and Air Force have now initiated the move to issue the draft notification.
While the process would take time, the government had moved swiftly on Saturday to announce ad hoc payment of arrears for the current year to all ranks of the services at the earliest. This is in view of the forthcoming festive season.
