Association says they have not received it since November 2015
Retired employees of Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation (TNSTC) on Monday staged a demonstration in front of the Madurai Collectorate demanding payment of increased dearness allowance (DA). The retired staff have not received it since November 2015, they said.
TNSTC’s Retired Employees Welfare Association (REWA) said that there were about 85,000 retired employees in the State. Several representations were made to the authorities, but the demand has not been met, said its general secretary R. Devaraj. They urged the authorities to disburse the dearness allowance immediately.

India’s gem and jewellery industry continues to demonstrate remarkable resilience and a spirit of innovation, said Kirit Bhansali, chairman of the Gem and Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC), at the inauguration of the 4th edition of IIJS Bharat-Tritiya 2026 at Bengaluru International Exhibition Centre (BIEC) here on Saturday, March 21.
