8th Pay Commission Schedules New Stakeholder Meetings in Delhi for August
The 8th Central Pay Commission (8th CPC) has resumed its stakeholder consultations after a two-week pause, scheduling fresh meetings in Delhi on August 7 and 10, 2026. These sessions will involve associations, federations, and unions representing central government and Union Territory employees who have submitted memorandums but not yet met the Commission. The consultation process, which includes meetings across various states, aims to gather feedback before finalizing recommendations on pay, pensions, and allowances. Employee bodies had expressed concerns over delays, which the Commission's renewed schedule seeks to address.
