  1. With an emphatic win in UP and UK the gov is under no pressure and gov servants are insignificant.There could be more delay.

  2. Isn’t it seem that there is deliberate delay for decision on allowance …?

    Why there is no pressure from Unions to get justifiable outcome timely…?

  3. It is a humble request to our union leaders as well as these web sites of employees’ organisations, pl. Dont remain as propagators of rumors and baseless inputs. I am referring also about the reported revealations of one of our national level leader to a online media reg. Submission of allowance committee report as well as numerous article appeared in this platform onthe same subject. We are expecting reliable information from above said sources.
