7th Pay Commission – Defence Ministry yet to Clear File on Allowances For Military
The Defence Ministry is yet to clear the file on allowances and revised pensions for military personnel under the 7th Pay Commission, almost two months after they were approved by the Union Cabinet, official sources said. “The Defence Ministry is yet to clear the file and then forward it for approval of the Finance Ministry. This includes disability pension, revised pension for those retired January 1, 2016 and allowances,” a senior official said.
The revised 7th pay commission recommendations have already been implemented for civilian employees in the government “over a month ago”, the official stated. The Union Cabinet had approved the recommendations in June-end and the gazette notifying them was issued on July 6.
Based on this, various ministries were supposed to issue orders implementing the revisions.
It has been learnt that the file is pending with the Department of Ex-Servicemen Welfare. “There is no accountability. The files have not been sent till now,” an official said.
