New Delhi: Hundreds of thousands of central government employees who are eagerly waiting for the implementation of increased pay as recommended by the 7th Pay Commission may finally get some relief in April.

As per media reports Finance Minister Arun Jaitley has assured to implement the pay hike for government employees from April.
