Government employees in West Bengal are escalating their protest against the state government’s failure to release Dearness Allowance (DA). The Joint Forum of Agitating Government Employees has announced plans for a series of protests, including a march to the state assembly and potentially legal action. This move follows the government’s inability to meet the employees’ demands for DA, which is a significant part of their salary. The crisis highlights a growing tension between the state administration and its workforce, with potential disruptions to public services if the situation is not resolved. Residents may experience the impact of these protests through potential disruptions to government office operations and public services.
