DRDO Scientists Association appeals to grant two additional increments and PRIS.


DHRD officials said that a High power committee has been constituted to approve the cases of action w.r.t  two additional increments and PRIS. A case for two additional increments has been taken up with CGDA. A case for PRIS is being examined for adequate justification in view of objection by Ministry of Finance/ Deptt of Expenditure for preparing fresh case. Presently the proposal for PRIS is for DRDS cadre only.

      DSA requested that variable Increments at enhanced rates should be given w.e.f  01.01.2016 along with arrears.

     DRDO Hq officials said that the case has been turned down by Ministry of Finance. On persuasion, they have assured that it will be taken up again.


DRDO Scientists Association congratulates entire DRDO fraternity for successfully conducting an Anti Satellite (ASAT) missile test,named Mission Shakti, becoming the fourth country in the world to demonstrate the capability to shoot down satellites in orbit as part of Ballastic Missile Defence (BMD) programme.
