THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The release of pay revision arrears announced for government employees and teachers will be delayed as the state is facing a severe financial crisis. The Finance Department has issued an order in this regard.
The government had earlier announced that the first instalment of the arrears would be credited to the employees' PF accounts on April 1. However, the finance department issued an order stating that the decision has been deferred in the context of the financial crisis.
