The Madhya Pradesh government has recommended the 6th Pay Commission in accordance with the University Grants Commission (UGC) to the universities’ staff including respective registrars, vice-chancellors, sports officers and librarians with effect from January 2006. This will put an additional burden of Rs 479.96 crore on the state and central exchequer in 80:20 ratio. Of this, the central government will share Rs 383.97 crore. “The state government has written a letter to the Centre to release the fund at the earliest,” higher education minister Laxmikant Sharma said today. “The arrears from January 1, 2006 to 31 August 2008 will be paid separately to all the universities’ staff. The government will release payments from September 2008,” he said.
A lecturer’s pay scale at present is between Rs 8,000 and Rs 13,500. For assistant professor, assistant professor (senior scale) and assistant professor (senior grade), the pay scale will now be between Rs 15,600 and Rs 39,100 while the grade pay will be from Rs 6,000 to Rs 8,000. A teacher will also be entitled for annual increment of three per cent of the basic salary with compounding effect.
