Tripura CM Biplab Kumar Deb has recently confirmed that the central government has provided Rs 1,500 crore to the state for implementing 7th pay Commission report recommendations for the state government employees.
Benefits for Government Employees under 7th CPC
Explaining the BJP led government's steps to promote the interest of employees during the past 15 months, Deb mentioned that the employees who died before retirement, their families would get full salaries of the deceased employees remaining service period until 60 years.
The Tripura CM has addressed the 2nd Triennial Conference of the Tripura Rajya Karmachari Sangh, a pro-BJP organisation of government employees. He also said, "Home Guards had been getting Rs 6,000 per month, the BJP government increased their wages to Rs 18,000 per month. The gratuity amount has been increased to Rs 10 lakhs from Rs 4 lakhs. Insurance limit of the linemen of the power departments has increased to Rs 10 lakh from Rs 2 lakhs,"
Deb pointed out all the benefits that the state government would get post-implementation of the 7th Pay Commission recommendation for the state government employees.
Caution for Government Employees under 7th CPC
Though, the CM also had a word of caution for the state employees. He informed that the state government employees are getting higher pay-scale from the BJP government in Tripura according to 7th Pay Commission. But still if they are found to be insincere, incompetent and remiss, then they will be forced to go on retirement. However, they would be provided financial benefits which they are eligible for.
CM Biplab Deb further added, "The state government would provide all the financial benefit to the employees and the government would also extract full works from the employees. All the employees have to complete their task with full responsibility, for the interest of the government and the people. After every three months, the performances of officials and employees from the Chief Secretary to a peon will be reviewed and according to it the government would take action."
It is to be noted that the Tripura government in July issued a notification on the compulsory retirement of the government employees. It also formed four committees to check the performances of the officials and employees of all ranks.
