This has increased the concerns for the central government employees and pensioners. The National Joint Consultative Machinery (Staff Side)-NCJCM has written a letter to the government asking that the Terms of Reference (ToR) of the 8th Central Pay Commission should be made public and the 8th CPC committee should also be constituted at the earliest. According to the media reports, the ongoing delay in formally issuing the Terms of Reference (ToRs) has created widespread speculation and uncertainty among central government employees and pensioners. The staff further noted that the lack of clear and timely communication will lead to concerns among employees about the credibility of the announcement related to the formation of the 8th Pay Commission.
