Rajasthan News: Ahead of Diwali 2024, the Bhajanlal government in Rajasthan has announced a significant financial boost for its employees and pensioners. In a major relief to retired employees, the Rajasthan government has decided to extend the benefit of pay increments to pensioners who retired on June 30 and were subsequently denied the benefit from July 1.
In addition, the government has also made serving employees eligible for House Rent Allowance (HRA) payments during holiday periods. The finance department has issued separate orders regarding both these benefits.
Relief for Pensioners
As per the finance department’s order, pensioners who retired on June 30 and missed the benefit of pay increment from July 1 will now receive notional benefits from July 1, 2006, to April 10, 2023. From April 11, 2023, onwards, they will receive these benefits in cash.
HRA Benefits for Employees
In another order, the finance department clarified that employees on leave for up to 120 days will be entitled to HRA. Additionally, maternity leave will qualify for HRA for up to 180 days. Employees on leave for serious illnesses such as cancer, leprosy, tuberculosis, or mental illness will be eligible for HRA for up to 240 days.
These announcements bring significant financial relief to both retired and serving employees of Rajasthan, reinforcing the government’s commitment to employee welfare.
