THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The government has given moratorium to government employees over EMIs for loans they have taken from government or Provident Fund.
This arrangement is to ease the difficulty employees may face when their six days’ salaries are put aside.
The payment of suspended EMIs will have to be paid in 10 equal instalments from September to June.
The employees who need this concession should give an application for it to Drawing and Disbursing Officer (DDO).
There is also an order from Finance department to help employees who find it difficult to put aside six days’ salaries every month till the fifth month. According to this, PF contribution can be re-fixed at 6 pc of the basic salary.
Meanwhile, the government will start the distribution of salaries of government employees, teachers and health workers on April 4.
The government has also made changes in the salary distribution software to exempt high court judges from the salary challenge.
