Whether the Cabinet has approved the DA merger of Central Government employees today's meeting ?
This is million doller question.
The actual story behind the DA merger is like this..
It is stated by the prominent news paper (Business Standard)'s web site, that the Cabinet has approved the DA merger and this news posted it its site at 2.14 pm. It spread like wildfire in all the Central Government employees sites and blogs. By 4.00 pm there was confusion among most of the employees. But at 4.15 pm the official website of Press Information Bureau, stated that "DA of additional 10% has been approved" and "Terms and Reference of VII Pay Commission" have approved by the Cabinet.
So, friends, it is evident that the 50 percent DA merger decision is not yet taken by the Cabinet.
BUT IT IS CLEAR THAT THE CABINET HAS DECIDED THAT MERGING OF 50% DA IS PART OF TERMS OF REFERENCE.
Technically looking, there is mention of DA merger in VI PRC report. So it constituted the VII PRC and handed over the matter to it. It indicates that UPA-II Govt only will see it been recommended by the VII PRC's interim report, before the Election takes place, and announces it.
