💨 Abstract

The Assam government has increased the Dearness Allowance (DA) for its employees by 2 percentage points, making it the first state in India to offer 55% DA. This move, described as a Bihu gift, will benefit around 7.38 lakh government employees and pensioners. The enhanced DA will be paid with the last month's salary, and arrears will be paid in April and May.
