7th Pay Commission
Reliable sources indicate that the central government will announce higher allowances under 7th Pay Commission for the central government employees only after the completion of five states assemblies poll process, as the model code of conduct has come into effect from Wednesday.

The 7th pay commission has already submitted its report, the Committee on Allowances set up by the government is also ready with its reports, however the government is not willing to accept it now, its buying more time.  The Government may delay it till mid March or March end.
Sources, however confirmed, the central government had no plan to give allowances in arrears from August for the central government employees.
The ‘Committee on Allowances’ has finalized the report on the allowances in October, and were waiting for a invite from the ministry to submit its report. however the government gave extension to the committee till February 22, 2017 to submit its report for getting normalized on the cash crunch position.
Its very clear that although the report was, and is ready, government bought some time to delay the implementation hiding behind demonetisation.
