Panel seeks salary assured through G.O.
The legal coordination committee for government doctors has appealed to the Chief Minister to grant them pay band-4 at 12 years of service. According to a press release, the committee said that when entering service, both the Central and State government doctors were given the same basic pay of ₹56,100. After 13 years, Central government doctors got a basic pay of ₹1,23,000 due to pay band-4, while State government doctors got the same salary only after completing of 20 years. Noting that the Central government doctors were drawing a “sizeable” salary by way of additional allowances, the committee said that they were not demanding salary on a par with them but for salary as assured through Government Order 354.More Related News
