This is the DOPT order delaying the annual appraisal system uptil next year.
As per 7th cpc norms, unless last year's appraisal is complete, file work for next increment is not started.
In this case, increment grant can now be given only when centre marks an exception to this clause due to emergency covid times.
Till now there is no such remark and increment...
more... is to be given in the month of July. Process is already delayed.
I will be more than happy if this news goes wrong in future as it's incurring financial loss to me also
