It 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!

I still dont understand why Govt should annouce pay hike and how did they arrive at 40%. Is this % that will win these vote banks. Is this the reason why it is flat accross various sectors. So now all fresh candidates who need to seek rather purchase govt. jobs need to shell much more than what they used to.

Govt6. servants work for 124 days only(pl. calculate).There bunk office,come late and normally do not work.There is no accountibility,no transparency in their work.Corruption is rampant in every Govt. Department. You are talking about Soldiers.For your info. govt. spend huge money on their welfare but hardly 50 % of that money spent on them.Rest of the money go into the deep pockets of top officials. THERE SHUD BE HIKE BUT WITH ACCOUNTABILITY. In private sector only efficient survives and thrives and rest are fired.

I dont thnk Lalu had to fire anybody to bring in 24K crores profit to Railways. In fact, he has increased the numbers by including coolies. Why blame Govt employees when a determined leader is all it takes to show results in the bottom line. Tell u abt private sector, yes ofcourse, the owners suck ur last drop of blood to profit and vn u r donewith obviously u r useless. Forget about pvt employee's effiency, it is the owners efficiency to suck u dry.

Hi Look so concerned about the welfare of the country. Right candidate to take uniform and guard the boarder in Ladakh and fight in Kargil. Prepare and see how cosy it feels there and how different it is from writing baeutiful language on your internet blog and then cooment what the Govt servants deserve.
If you are not part of the system, you fail to understand it and so do not make cheap comments.
