  1. Rajasthan Govt. sanctioned DA & DR simultaneously on 10-9-2018 to its employees & Pensioner. But GOI have not yet issued orders on DR, even-though DA orders to serving employees issued on 7th September 2018 itself. Why this disparity. GOI ill-treating Pensioners/Senior Citizens ? The Govt. have agreed to issue simultaneous orders on DA/DR long back but not implemented. It’s unfortunate & injustice done Senior Citizens. GOI should issue DR Orders with further delay.
