In what comes as a relief for Rajasthan government employees amid the coronavirus disease (Covid-19) pandemic, the state's chief minister Ashok Gehlot has allowed an increase in the dearness allowances of government employees from the existing 17% to 28%. The increase in dearness allowances was made applicable from July 1, an official notification said, adding that an amount around ₹4,000 crore per annum has been allotted to support the government employees during this difficult time.
