JAMMU, Apr 24: The State Pensioners Association (SPA) today welcomed the Union Government’s decision to release a 2% Dearness Allowance (DA) installment effective from January 2026 for its employees and pensioners.
In a press statement, Association president Krishan Singh urged the UT administration to implement a similar relief for its employees and pensioners.
