Meghalaya employees get 32 per cent pay hike

The Meghalaya government has announced an overall pay hike of 32 per cent for all its employees with retrospective effect from January 1, 2007.

After a cabinet meeting last night, Chief Minister DD Lapang said the revised pay scale as recommended by the state's fourth pay commission will be implemented from October 1.

The state government will have to spend Rs 330 crore annually on salaries of about 70,000 employees.

Arrears, amounting to Rs 660 crore, would be divided between the current financial year and the subsequent years in the ratio of 40:60.

Meghalaya will require Rs 545 crore to implement the new pay scales. "The central government has assured us of a Rs 260 crore assistance for the purpose," Lapang said adding that for the remaining amount the state government will have to mobilise additional resources.
