8th Pay Commission ke Staff Side ne ek proposal rakha hai jismein Dearness Allowance (DA) ka formula revise karne ki baat hai. Unka kehna hai ki 25% DA ko basic pay mein merge karna chahiye aur ek open-market inflation indexing mechanism adopt karna chahiye. Fatafa, current DA formula All India Consumer Price Index for Industrial Workers (AICPI-IW) par based hai, jiski base year 2016 hai. Lekin ismein criticism hai ki yeh real-time cost of living aur central government employees ke consumption patterns ko reflect nahi kar raha.
Sources ke according, Staff Side jo various central government employee unions ko represent kar raha hai, kahe raha hai ki existing formula current economic realities se peeche hai. Essential commodities, housing aur healthcare ke prices badh rahe hain, isliye yeh formula unko capture nahi kar pa raha. Proposal mein base year recalibrate karne ki baat hai taaki inflation trends ko better capture kiya ja sake. Aur 25% DA ko basic pay mein merge karne se salary structure improve hoga. Ye move 1 crore se zyada central government employees aur pensioners ke liye accurate cost-of-living adjustment provide karega.
