Choudhary has issued instructions to all departments to ensure the necessary action is taken.<br \/>\nChief Minister Shri Sai said that for him, the government is not just a system, but a family of dedicated colleagues who are sincerely engaged in public service. This decision to pay the salary in advance before Diwali is a symbol of that affection \u2014 so that the government can participate in the happiness of every colleague and spread light and joy in every household.<br \/>\nHe stated that the festival of Diwali symbolizes happiness, unity, and enthusiasm. The government&#8217;s objective is for every officer and employee to be able to celebrate this festival joyously with their family and not face any financial inconvenience.<br \/>\nTo ensure the smooth completion of the salary payment process, all treasuries and sub-treasuries in the state will remain open even on October 18 (Saturday, a holiday), so that no employee faces any difficulty in receiving payment.<br \/>\nThe state government has also clarified that advance payments for other heads such as wages, honorarium, and remuneration can also be made as per rules.<br \/>\nChief Minister Shri Sai said that the advance salary payment before Diwali will not only provide financial convenience and relief to government employees but will also increase the vibrancy in the state&#8217;s markets during the GST savings festival, boost commercial activities, and accelerate the economic flow. This will directly benefit local traders, artisans, and small entrepreneurs, creating an atmosphere of celebration and trust in the state&#8217;s economy.<br \/>\nChief Minister Shri Sai concluded that every decision of the government is linked to the happiness and respect of its hardworking colleagues. The advance salary payment before Diwali is a symbol of that sincere emotion that light should spread in every home and the lamp of happiness and trust should glow in every heart.<br \/>\nWould you like me to translate another text or provide any specific information about the &#8216;GST savings festival&#8217; mentioned here?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Raipur, October 16 Keeping in mind the convenience of its government officers and employees on&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":74,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,36,2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-22384","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cg","category-latest","category-national"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.3 -
