Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik on Saturday announced a Dearness Allowance (DA) hike of seven per cent for state government employees and pensioners.
It will be implemented with retrospective effect from July this year, said a release from the Chief Minister's Office (CMO).
The state government increased the DA to 132 per cent from the present 125 per cent.
A total of seven lakh people, including four lakh government employees and three lakh pensioners, would benefit from the decision, according to the release.

The Confederation of CG employees announced strike for one day.Why didnt they announce an indefinite strike?The answer is simple.This is a drama and they are sure about the failure of this strike drama.They are silent about the deferred strike of the NJCA.
