According to the Medium-Term Expenditure Framework Statement tabled in Parliament by the Government, the salary outgo of central government employees will go up by 9.56 per cent to Rs 1,00,619 crore in 2015- 16. It will increase further in the next year.

The Pension amount also is expected to increase, since a large number of employees are retiring every year.

The government seems to be finding out justification for its decisions on VII CPC in advance.
