Some states did not implement the recommendations of the last pay commission and set up their own pay commissions, like Karnataka.
While the State salaries are very low compared to Central salaries, take the case of a lecturer in a first grade college working under Karnataka State scales of pay. He/She draws less than Rs.12,000/- while a Senior Clerk of the Central Govt. draws more pay in comparison.
How is that one for comparing one with a Post graduation/Ph.D qualification with a mere matriculate?
