CHANDIGARH: The Haryana Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda today said that the revised pay scales according to the

recommendations of sixth pay commission to all State Government employees would be implemented from January 2006. The State

Government had already made a provision of Rs. 1500 crore in the annual budget
this financial year.

The Chief Minister while replying the questions of Media Persons at Rohtak said that a committee had been formed under the

Chairmanship of Haryana Chief Secretary to look into the matter and to decide the revised pay scales as per the

recommendations of sixth pay commission.

He said that the committee had received about 225 suggestions from different departments about the revision in the pay

scales. For the transparency in the fixation of pay scales the committee had given personal hearing to all the request and

suggestions. He assured that the new pay scales would be satisfactory and justifiable to each and every category of

employees.

Hooda said that "employees are the back bone of the administration set up and the present Congress Government is well-wisher

of the employees". He said that almost all the retrenched employees by the previous Government had been merged in the various

departments by this Government only. They had also been given relaxation to appear again in the departmental examinations.


He said that keeping in view the interest of the employees the Government had made the ex-gratia scheme more effective for

their dependents. This scheme would provide financial security besides giving social security to the employees.
