Government Employees are enjoying a dearness allowance
Currently, Central Government Employees are enjoying a dearness allowance of 53 percent, whereas Manipur Government employees are getting 14 percent less from this amount. This gap really counts in light of the pressures of inflation. The dearness allowance for central employees continues to be effective till December this year and is again expected to increase at the beginning of the new year.
