  1. Granting of DA as per inflation is mandatory for Central Govt. to its employees. This can’t be termed as gift. It seems the present Govt. is misguiding its employees by terming DA as a gift. After so much of deliberation on increase of multiplying factor from 2.52 to 3.68 so far Govt. has not done anything. Is all CG Employees federations appreciated the issue? if not what action they are going to take?
