The nearly six lakh government employees in the State can now look forward to getting a bigger pay packet, with the State''s Fifth Pay Commission recommending an increase in salary ranging from Rs. 700 to Rs. 4,000 a month. The commission, headed by retired official M.B. Prakash, submitted the second volume of its report to Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy here on Tuesday.
The pay revision will place an additional burden of Rs. 1,350 crore on the exchequer. The notification revising the pay has already been issued. The benefits will be notionally effective from April 1, 2005 and the monetary benefits applicable from April 1, 2006.
