Over 33 lakh Central government employees have reasons
to smile as the Narendra Modi led NDA Government has agreed to continue
interest-free advances for medical treatment, travelling allowance (TA)
for family of deceased, TA on tour or transfer and Leave Travel
Concession (LTC) overriding the recommendation of the Seventh Pay
Commission.
Plus, the computer advance has been
enhanced to Rs. 50,000.
The allowance could be drawn a maximum of five
times during the entire service span of an employee.
In
June this year, the Centre announced acceptance of most of the
recommendations of the Commission with effect from January 2016.
The
Pay Commission examined a total of 196 existing allowances and, by way
of rationalisation, recommended abolishing 51 and subsuming 37 of them.
