Kathmandu. The government has decided not to increase the salary of government employees in the upcoming fiscal year’s budget.
Finance Minister Bishnu Poudel, while presenting the budget for the upcoming fiscal year in the joint sitting of parliament today, informed that the dearness allowance has been increased without increasing the salary of government employees. The government has increased the dearness allowance of the employees by Rs 5,000.
Finance Minister Poudel said it was not possible to increase the salary of the employees due to pressure on resource management. “All employees will get dearness allowance with effect from July 1, 2019,” he said.
