The Bihar state cabinet has approved a uniform 3% pay raise for all government staff, part of 32 decisions taken in the recent meeting.
During a recent cabinet meeting, the Bihar government announced a 3% increase in salaries for its entire cadre of state employees. The decision, announced by the cabinet, applies uniformly across all departments and levels of the state bureaucracy.
The pay hike is intended to address inflationary pressures and improve the purchasing power of government workers. Officials said the increase will be reflected in the next salary cycle, without altering the existing pay structure.
The move forms one of 32 resolutions passed by the cabinet, which also covered various administrative and development matters. While the salary revision is the most visible outcome for employees, the broader set of decisions aims to streamline governance in the state.
State authorities have indicated that the increase will be funded from the current fiscal allocation, ensuring no additional burden on the state's finances.
