Telangana clears two pending DA instalments for employees, pensioners

The Telangana cabinet, chaired by CM Revanth Reddy, approved two pending dearness allowance instalments for state employees and pensioners, releasing arrears accumulated since 2024 at an annual cost of ₹2,500 crore.
The move clears arrears that had built up since 2024, bringing relief to lakhs of government employees and pensioners across the state.
The cabinet decision adds about ₹2,500 crore to the state's annual financial burden, with remaining instalments to be cleared in phases — though no timeline has been announced.
The announcement caps a busy weekend for the government, which also reviewed medical infrastructure projects and school inspections at a CMO meeting on Saturday.
