The Union Cabinet, under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, approved a 2% increase in Dearness Allowance (DA) and Dearness Relief (DR) for central government employees and pensioners, effective January 1, 2025. This revision raised the DA from 53% to 55% in accordance with the formula based on the 7th Central Pay Commission recommendations.
