State government teachers soon to get benefits of 7th pay commission



The central government has approved the proposal to extend the benefits of the 7th pay commission to the teachers and academic staff of the government and government-aided technical institutions. The revised pay scales will be applicable from 1.1.2016 and the annual financial liability of the move will be about INR 1241.78 crore. Addressing a press conference, HRD Minister Prakash Javadekar said “the government would reimburse 50 per cent of the total additional expenditure that would be incurred by the institutes for payment of arrears on account of the revision in accordance with 7th Pay Commission recommendations.” “This will directly benefit a total of 29,264 teachers and other academic staff of state government-funded institutes. Besides, about 3.5 lakh teachers and other academic staff of private colleges or institutions within the purview of All India Council of Technical Education (AICTE) will also benefit from the approval,” he added. Javadekar also said that 10 percent reservation quota for the EWS category of the general category will be implemented in all educational institutes from the new academic year and to implement this there will be an increase of 25 percent in the universities seats across the nation.
