Dear
The news has been published today (2nd Oct) in the newspapers. In winter season it would be put before parliament and then it would be further taekn.
Though the eligibility limit for covcergae has been enhanced to INR10,000/- (Basic +DA) but computation limit has been raised merely by INR1,000/- which is not right at all consdiering the fact that limit has been raised after 10 years.
