Confusion over minimum basic salary Government is contemplating to give around 19 percent raise on the existing  minimum basic salary.

Central government employees who are not happy with present proposal want minimum pay Rs 26,000 Army officers Vs civilian counterparts Army Officers are not happy with the present recommendations of Pay Commission and have aired their grievances many times to Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar Defence forces have this feeling that if pay commission will be implemented in present form then it will position them much below their civilian counterparts in terms of salaries, facilities and status One of the main grudge that the armed forces have is with regard to risk-hardship matrix.

  These officers say that a soldier posted in Siachen Glacier, which has the highest degree of both risk and hardship, gets an allowance of Rs 31,500 per month. In contrast, a civilian bureaucrat from the All India Services draws 30 per cent of his salary as "hardship allowance" when posted anywhere outside the comfort zone.

Under the new scale, a senior IAS official posted in a city in northeast will draw much more as "hardship allowance", compared to the Rs 31,500 per month drawn by military officers in Siachen. Government assured Army men Recently Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar said that concerns of Armed forces will be addressed In an interview, he said, "The concerns raised by the armed forces would be taken up by the commission".
