However, the Central government employees continue to keep their hope alive as their demand for the minimum pay hike is yet to be met. The CG employees are presently getting a minimum pay of Rs 18,000. They are demanding a hike of Rs 8000- Rs 26,000- an increase in the fitment factor by 3.68 times from the existing 2.57 times.

While reports were there that the government may consider and increase the minimum pay of the employees early next year, news are also there that there will be an increase in the minimum pay but it will not be Rs 8,000 as demanded by the CG employees, rather it will be around Rs 2000.

First, their demand is genuine and second, as elections are around the corner, the NDA government will not take risk of facing the wrath of around 50 lakh Central government employees.
