Are the heavens falling ?

7CPC recommendations are accepted by the Govt, but with many actions pending.  The media and the public are responding sharply to the Govt decisions. I am not referring to the Govt employees and pensioners (who are the prime beneficiaries ).

The Media is quite funny ! Many reports they project show the Govt employees and Pensioners in very bad light. It's as if they are getting something undeserving. As if they are looting the Govt exchequer !

I must tell one such comment.
Today morning, in local Aakashvaani, one  young Congress MLA was saying that the " Government is taking from the beggars' bowl and putting into the golden platter " ( പിച്ചക്കാരന്റെ ചട്ടിയിൽ കയ്യിട്ടുവാരി  സ്വർണ തളികയിൽ ഇട്ടു കൊടുക്കുന്നു) . I wonder , what this guy understood on the whole matter ! At the same time , he forgot what his Neta  Dr. Manmohan Singh did in 2008 (6CPC) . Did he loot the beggars  while implementing 6CPC ?
I think it's better we don't comment or respond to such immature politicians.


However, there are certainly very positive evaluations. Let me quote The Hindu today.
In the Editorial, they say, "A fillip to growth, and may be inflation".......  The implementation of 7CPC recommendations will impart fillip to the consumption demand and economic growth.......  However, there are some risks from the increased salary and pension outgo. ....  Finance Ministr is confident that the budget deficit will be contained within the 3.5 percent of GDP this year. But how this will be achieved is yet to be clear."

That's understandable, ofcourse.

Some of the individual comments too ..
It is shocking that despite hefty hike in pay and allowances, there is dissatisfaction .....
It is unfortunate that Govt employees are unhappy ...
Do Central and State Govt staff deserve such a huge hike ? ...

There are certain favorable comments too.

The calculation arrived - 23.5 % hike in pay - is distorted.....  As the revision comes after 10 years, The rise is meagre.
This is not atall a huge hike ...
and so on .....
