🇮🇳 8वें वेतन आयोग

The 8th Pay Commission is a body in India responsible for reviewing and recommending revisions to the salaries, allowances, and pensions of central government employees. It is currently trending due to intensifying demands from employees for significant salary hikes and an increased fitment factor, with discussions around the potential for substantial pay increases. This comes amidst recent news that the government has denied arrears for Dearness Allowance and Dearness Relief from the COVID-19 period. Pay Commissions are typically constituted every ten years to update the remuneration structure for government staff.
