Cricketer Mohammed Siraj, who holds the rank of DSP in the Telangana government, receives a salary under the 7th Pay Commission, which includes allowances. Let's find out the details...

Team India's fast bowler Mohammed Siraj has brought glory to the country with his powerful performance on the field. Recognizing this achievement, the Telangana government has bestowed upon him the prestigious rank of Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP). This news has raised several questions in people's minds. The biggest question is: how much salary does DSP Siraj receive, and if the 8th Pay Commission is implemented, will he also benefit from it?

Mohammed Siraj made his place in international cricket through hard work in challenging circumstances. Impressed by his performance, the Telangana government offered him the DSP position. This position brings both honor and responsibility. Although Siraj's primary focus remains cricket, this government position has been given to him as a mark of respect from the state.

What is the salary for a DSP position?

Officers holding the DSP position in the Telangana Police receive a salary according to the 7th Pay Commission. Currently, the monthly salary for this position ranges from Rs. 58,850 to Rs. 1,37,050. This salary depends on the officer's seniority and length of service.

In addition, DSPs also receive various allowances. These include house rent allowance, medical allowance, travel allowance, and other government benefits. Adding these allowances further increases the total income.

What was the fitment factor in the 7th Pay Commission?

The 7th Pay Commission used a fitment factor of 2.57 to determine the salaries of employees and officers. Based on this, the old salary was increased to determine the new salary. This resulted in a significant increase in the income of government employees.

Now, discussions about the 8th Pay Commission are underway.

Discussions about the 8th Pay Commission have intensified across the country. Although there has been no official announcement from the government regarding its implementation yet, it is expected that a decision may be taken in the near future. If the 8th Pay Commission is implemented, the rules for determining salaries could be revised again. It is believed that the new fitment factor may be higher than the current level. This would lead to an increase in the salaries of all government employees and officers.

How much could salaries increase?

If the 8th Pay Commission is implemented and the fitment factor is increased, officers like DSPs could also see a significant increase in their salaries. According to estimates, the minimum salary for a DSP could exceed ₹80,000, while the maximum salary could reach ₹1.80 lakh to ₹1.85 lakh.
