  1. Govt.officers and employees are running this country working hard for years and years but attitude of BJP govt. To employees is highly disappointing.Employees and pensioners has no hope of mercy from this govt.

  2. It is not understood how KVS can genrate the remaing funds to implement 7th cpc to its employees and pensioners.All these years how they implemented.Why not this BJP govt. Better issue notification saying autonomous bodies are not eligible.

  3. We request to BJP government, please issue a strong statement to us, whether we are eligible or not to get 7th pay commission arrears? please give your statement clearly “The autonomous bodies are not eligible to get 7th pay commission benefits” after then we are doing work peace fully without anticipated any thing your great government.
