JAMMU, Sept 2: National Mazdoor Conference (NMC) has demanded release of pending instalments of five per cent DA (due from July 2019) to both Central and State Governments employees and pensioners.
In a handout NMC president, Subash Shastri urged upon the Prime Minister, Narendra Modi to get release the pending instalment of DA so that salaried class and pensioners may heave a sigh of relief from rising prices.
Shastri also demanded that Jammu and Srinagar cities be declared as A-I Cities as the same would ensure more flow of funds to upgrade infrastructure and modernise civic amenities in these cities.
He also demanded setting up of National Wage Commission for evolving National Wage Policy throughout the country, total exemptions of DA from income tax, enhancing wages of daily rated workers to Rs. 600 per day at national level and accepting the recommendations of Ashok Lavasa Committee report.
