Answer given by the minister


MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF FINANCE (SHRI NAMO NARAIN MEENA)

(a) to (c): The pay scales and allowances of the employees of the Central Government, State Governments and Public Sector Banks are determined independently of one another. While the pay scales and allowances of Central Government employees are determined on the basis of the recommendations of the Central Pay Commissions, those in case of the employees of Public Sector Banks are determined through bipartite settlements between the management and Associations/ Unions. The question of pay scales and allowances of State Government employees falls exclusively within the domain of the respective State Governments. As such, there is no question of inter-se anomaly in the matter of salaries of these three different classes of employees.
