 16th July DA and arrear DA  maybe announced: West Bengal

A meeting of the finance department has been called on July 18. Where all the financial aspects of the department will be examined. It is also being heard that it will be discussed how much it will cost to comply with the High Court's order to pay the arrears of DA to the employees.

The first four months of the current financial year are about to pass. At this time, Nabanna wants to shape the financial condition of the state government departments and plan for the next eight months. To that end, a special meeting has been convened on July 16 with the financial advisors of each department. This important meeting will be held at 11 a.m. in Salt Lake Karunamayi's Shubhanne. Six special areas have been placed on the government agenda. According to a Finance Ministry official, the current status of central projects will be discussed. This is because the Modi government has stopped giving money for multiple central projects, including 100 days of work. 

Because, a few days ago, the state government has released crores of rupees from its own funds for the 100-day work project. The Center has arrears of around Rs 5,000 crore for multiple such projects. Naturally, it is becoming virtually impossible for the state government to bear this additional financial responsibility by running its own social projects.

In this context, the purpose of this meeting is to find a workable solution beyond the central deprivation. Anikshini demanded that the official of the finance department. There has been money in the state budget and so far there has been money actually spent. Accounts will be discussed. If necessary, the office budget will be cut for social projects.

Money may be withheld. The bureaucrat of IAS rank claimed that several hundred crores of rupees are needed for a bunch of projects including Lakshmi Bhandar, Kanyashree, Rupashree, Yubashree. On top of that, the government employees have to work hard to meet the salaries and pensions of the retired employees.
