SIXTH PAY: WAS IT NECESSARY?
Recently the Maharashtra Government in India announced implementation of 6th Pay Commission for its state government 
employees from retrospective date i.e. 1st Jan 2006. This pay is going to benefit nearly 14 lacs employees & 7042 pensioners. I don’t understand why government is partial between government employees & private employees. On going economic slowdown in India the government should save its earnings and should it for productive purposes. The fact is government people are inefficient as compaired to private employees.
Every one in the world is trying to cut their unproductive expenses and saving. The Maharashtra government is already in debt by Rs. 144325/- (INR) & 6th Pay will enhance the debt by Rs. 1837/- Crores (INR). The earning are also down due to economic slowdown in India & financial crisis all over the world in form of tax revenue. One of the reasons why the government is implemented 6th pay because of the Central & State elections are their in coming months. Is it a dirty politics or matured one?
