Plea to Finance Ministry : Timely Declaration of DA/DR w.e.f. 01.07.2023 and Bonus/Ad-hoc Bonus

In a recent development the Confederation of Central Government Employees and Workers has raised a crucial issue that has stirred concerns among employees and pensioners alike. The Confederation has drawn the attention of the Minister of Finance Smt. Nirmala Sitharaman towards the non-declaration of the due installment of Dearness Allowance (DA) and Dearness Relief (DR) with effect from 01-07-2023.

Traditionally, the announcement are made in the last week of September each year and arrears are paid in the first week of October. However, the delay this year has sparked severe discontent among approximately thirty five lakh Central Government Employees and sixty nine lakh pensioners & family pensioners.

Furthermore, as the festive season, especially Durga Puja is approaching, there is also a need for the declaration of Productivity Linked Bonus (PLB) and Adhoc Bonus (Non-Productivity Linked Bonus). In light of these issues, the Confederation has called upon the Finance Minister to intervene immediately and ensure the timely issuance of DA/DR orders and bonus declarations.
