Imphal, October 19 2023:
Pointing out that the DA/DR of central government employees and pensioners have been increased to 46 per cent while the state employees receive only 28 per cent leaving a gap of about 18 per cent, Indian National Trade Union Congress (INTUC) Manipur branch has urged the state government to ensure equal benefit to all the employees.
In a release, INTUC Manipur president Yumnam Ranapratap said that the minimum wage is still the same for the last seven years and proposed revision of the minimum wage for the welfare of the working class.
Expressing hope that the government will honour the demands, he also appealed for releasing the pending salary and arrears of pensioners at the earliest.
