THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: With the state government considering to cut the salary of government employees for six more months, the next government will be made liable to repay the deducted salary to the employees. While the government has already deducted the salary of govt employees for the past five months, it is now considering to deduct the salary for six days for the next six months. This means that the next government will have to repay the salary for 66 days in total and this will amount to Rs 5000 crore.

According to the government, the deducted amount will be dissolved in the PF on April 1 and the employees will be able to withdraw the amount in June. Those employees without PF will receive the amount in instalments along with their monthly salary.
