The Jammu and Kashmir Cabinet has approved the implementation of the 6th Pay Commission in the state.

The Cabinet, which met in Jammu under the chairmanship of chief minister Omar Abdullah on Thursday evening, approved the recommendations of the Cabinet Sub Committee on implementation of the 6th Pay Commission, including one that there shall be no lock-in period for withdrawal of arrears deposited to the GP Fund.

Chief secretary S S Kapur said that revised pay structure in the state will be made effective from July 1, this year, with notional increments from January 1, 2006.

The salaries for the month of July will be drawn in the revised pay structure and disbursed to the state government employees on August 1.

The arrears will be admissible from January 1, 2006. However, the issue of payment of pay revision arrears to the state government employees will be considered for settlement only after a proper and full funding for the same becomes available, he said.

As soon as funding becomes available to the government, for which it shall make all necessary efforts for seeking the required financial assistance from the central government, to meet the expenditure on account of pay revision, arrears will be paid in a phased manner, he said.
