VIJAYAWADA: The State government on Wednesday issued eight orders pertaining to implementation of the Pay Revision Commission (PRC) and circulated the GO copies to leaders of the employees' associations during a meeting held in the Secretariat.

Principal Secretary (Finance) Shashi Bushan Kumar said apart from the eight GOs, two more GOs would be issued either on Wednesday night or on Thursday. Some more GOs will also be released soon in this regard.

Special Chief Secretary (Finance) SS Rawat said all measures are being taken to implement the PRC pending issues. Similarly, all the pending bills of employees will also be cleared on a priority basis, he said.

The employees' association leaders said though Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy promised to clear all the pending bills of employees by April 30, they are yet to get GPF loans, APGLI and other dues. They appealed to the government to implement 16 per cent HRA to employees working in the headquarters of 13 new districts.
