The Telangana government has issued orders implementing revised pay scales to all the state government employees.
Separate GOs were issued on salaries, dearness allowance, house rent allowance, retirement gratuity, pension, additional quantum of allowance and salaries of outsourcing and contract employees on Friday.

He said the hiked salaries will be paid from June salary i.e July 1.
The government said the monetary benefit of the revised salaries would be paid from April 1, 2020, but the arrears for the period from April 1, 2020, to March 31, 2021, would be paid at the time of retirement of the government employee or to the legal heirs in case of demise of the employee.
