Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has welcomed the Union Cabinet's decision to increase Dearness Allowance (DA) and Dearness Relief (DR) for central government employees and pensioners. He described the 3% hike, effective July 1, 2026, as highly commendable and a significant step ahead of Diwali. Adityanath also lauded the Container Manufacturing Promotion Scheme, calling it a far-sighted initiative with a Rs 10,000 crore outlay until FY40.
