Tripura announces central pay scale for employees

ROPA 2015 issued.
The Tripura government today sanctioned central pay scale, revised pay band and modified grade pay to the state's 1.7 lakh employees at par with the recommendations of the 6th Central Pay Commission. 

"In view of the disparity of the pay structure of the state government employees with that of the central government, there has been long standing demand of the state government employees for equivalent pay structure as recommended by the 6th Central Pay Commission. However, the state government could not give the similar pay structure due to financial crunch," Chief Minister Manik Sarkar told reporters.

"But, we have made an appropriate assessment of the recommendations of the 14th Finance Commission and have found we can now implement the central pay scale as recommended by the 6th Central Pay Commission," he said. 

He, however, said fixation of pay would be fixed notionally from April 1, this year. Apart from this, fixed-pay employees in the government, autonomous bodies and public sector undertakings would be increased. They would also get benefit of 10 per cent hike in wage and benefits of DA. 

The Chief Minister said implementation of central pay scale and related other benefits would result in annual expenses of Rs 406 crore in 2016-2017, Rs 487 crore in 2017-2018, Rs 560 crore in 2018-2019 and Rs 645 crore in 1019-2020. 

"We have asked the Centre for additional sanction of Rs 17,700 crore on the non-plan head and if the amount is sanctioned, we will be in a comfortable position. We hope the government headed by Narendra Modi will consider our case sympathetically," Sarkar added.
