DA Case Update: Get the Latest Update on the DA Case in Malay Mukherjee’s Statement Today

DA Case Update: A recent statement by Malay Mukherjee, the General Secretary of the Confederation of State Government Employees of West Bengal, has sparked new discussions regarding the Dearness Allowance (DA) case. In his statement, he discussed the current situation of the DA case, the role of the government, and the next steps for the employee organizations. In this report, we will highlight the main points of Malay Mukherjee’s statement.

Key Points of Malay Mukherjee’s Statement

In his statement, Malay Mukherjee strongly criticized the state government’s delay concerning the pending DA of the state government employees. He stated that despite a clear order from the Supreme Court, the state government is depriving the employees of their rightful dues.

• Government’s Inaction: He mentioned that although the Supreme Court had ordered the government to pay 25% of the DA within six weeks (by June 27th), the government did not comply. Instead, on the last day of the deadline, it filed a Miscellaneous Application, attempting to prolong the case. According to Malay Mukherjee, this is equivalent to cheating the employees.
• Contempt of Court Case: He informed that the Confederation of State Government Employees has filed a contempt of court case against the Chief Secretary and the Finance Secretary for this inaction by the government. He said, “We will continue the legal fight and establish the rights of the employees.”
• Next Hearing: Malay Mukherjee announced that the next hearing of the case will be on August 4th. The court has ordered this case to be placed at the top of the list, which proves its importance. He expressed hope that the court will rule in favor of the employees in this very hearing.

Message to the Employees

In his statement, Malay Mukherjee addressed the concerns of the employees, especially the retired ones. He said, “We know you are waiting anxiously. Many retired employees are dependent on this money for their medical expenses. We are with you and will fight till the end.”

He urged the employees to remain united and have faith in the organization. He said that this fight is not just for financial claims, but it is a fight to protect the dignity and rights of the employees.

From Malay Mukherjee’s statement, it is clear that the DA case has entered a new and crucial phase. The employee organizations are prepared for a legal battle and are hopeful that the employees will receive their due DA very soon.

The hearing on August 4th will play a decisive role in determining the future of this case. All employees and pensioners are now looking forward to that day.
