Imagine getting consistently a nice, big check every month. This is the promise of the 8th Pay Commission for the over 50-lakh central government employees and 65-lakh pensioners in India.

Suffice to say that the dying moments of destitution, which drag on into eternity, demand the introduction of a life-saving endeavor or two: an antidote or two at least for all their erratic struggles. Considering Cabinet approval of the Terms of Reference (TOR), a giant step is made toward reshaping livelihoods-for her inspired faithful work flair, clutching equity unlocked with liberty.
