In a big set back as it is confirmed now, that Government is not going to change the Minimum pay as the Department of Expenditure has said that minimum pay will not come under the purview of the National Anomaly Committee. This shattered the hopes of Central Government employees awaiting for some good news after the 7th Pay Commission recommendations were cleared. Now there is no scope for changing the minimum pay in January or April. Reports quoting Finance Ministry sources stated that government clearly has no plans to make any changes to the minimum pay for central government employees.
