Assam has taken the lead in constituting its 8th State Pay Commission, a first among Indian states. This move comes ahead of the expiry of the 7th Pay Commission on January 1, 2026.
The Chief Minister has appointed a former chief secretary to head the panel, bringing valuable experience to the table. This commission is expected to review and revamp the pay structure for state employees.
The constitution of the 8th Pay Commission demonstrates the state's commitment to the welfare of its employees. It is anticipated that this move will have a positive impact on the lives of thousands of state employees.
The implications of this development are significant, and it will be interesting to see how other states respond to this precedent. As the commission begins its work, all eyes are on Assam, watching for the potential benefits and changes that this move may bring.
