Reform in 'disability compensation' 7th Pay Commission: The central government has decided to extend 'disability compensation' to all its serving employees. It will be applicable if they get disabled in the line of duty and are still retained in service despite their disability. This is in line with the efforts of the government to simplify the rules and rectify discriminatory clauses.

He said that disability in the performance of duties was generally reported in their case due to hostile and difficult work environment and constraints in job requirements. Source: PTI
