Its a quite average article which one undergoes in every walk of life. However, its good for high earning men/women. But, when it comes to the matter of a low salaried Govt servant, below the rank of a section officer, whose gross salaries start from 4000 to 16000 PM, he could not buy any sort of accommodation except rely on the govt. accommodation which needs to be vacated upon supperannuation. Here, I would like to mention, a govt servant cannot even buy a house being offered to the Economically Weaker Sections (EWS) coz, the clause mentions very particularly, that a person's income should not exceed 25,000 or 36,000 per annum. When this factor comes into consideration of whether you want to buy, ther is no way for a govt servant coz, his salary goes to over 48,000 PA thereby denied an EWS house as well. Even if he stays on rental basis(until he is allotted a govt. accommodation, which may take atleast 8 years on an average), he has to suffer a hell in a city like delhi, where the rents for a small 1BR house ranges between 3500-5000 in a far locality in delhi which is just inaffordable for a low salaried govt servant. These kind of problems are commonly faced by a low salaried govt servant in Delhi. Lastly, I would like to say, the low salaried govt servant cannot buy an asset for himself or live on rental basis and thereby, forcing him to live in unhygenic conditions and eating unhealthy food and inviting all sorts of diseases and also forcing some people to resort to some kind of other source for living, provided he is not caught and in case he is caught, he gets suspended and loses the 2nd job as well. So friends, plz do not resort to go for secondary jobs while ur serving the govt as you may land in trouble. Friends, lets wait and watch whether if any government would show some mercy on the low salaried govt servants. Thanks for reading my article. Plz write to me in case you have any views / opinions on my article.
