is funny to see that so many people feel that the Govt employees should work without getting paid properly. It is easy to cry foul, but the country's machinery is run by this work force and they are paid just a pittance as compared to the people out side. Today the highest govt servant is recommended to get 90000/- per month, the structure of which is frozen for the next 10 years. But a young graduate in his mid twenties gets more than that in jobs else where. It is really a pity to see there are still people to cry foul that the Govt servants' salary is being hiked. How many of these people will come forward or send their children to guard the boarders of the country in inhospitable terrains? Will these people shedding tears be responsible if the Govt does not get good brains for good scientists and engineers, professors and administrators because of poor pays. Can some of them visit the families of our soldiers living in humble conditions when their sons are posted in Ladakh? And these people are against them being paid in a bare minimum scales. The revised pay is nowhere near the pays given by many industries. And just to think that the poor Govt servants have to make do with it for the next 10 years!

The salary comes as a bonus. The under table money is quite sufficient for them to sustain their families for decades. In my building where each flat costs more than 80lacs, 90% are owned by Govt servants from Police to excise. Now what u say on that. By the way i am on rent earning 5 times my owner as on paper. The actual income all knows. Moreover dont preach bout Govt Culture. Anyone with a habit of it will be kicked out of an MNC within no time. Give Bonus on Productivitya s the genuine hard workers should always be compensated well but no blanket rise please.

Buddy these central govt BABU's are run by bribes only. same amount of work is done by just less than 10% work force in private organizations. The very first thing govt shld do kick of those 90% non perfromers and then give 100% hike to rest, we tax payers don't mind that much hike.
Some body pelase clean up this paste called as central govt employess :(
