Former Chief Secretary Sudhakar Rao has been appointed as the chairman of the commission for the revision of the pay scale of the state government employees, he said.

A joint action committee of various associations of government employees had earlier petitioned the government to appoint a retired High Court judge as the chairperson of the 7th Pay Commission.

Bommai in March had announced that a commission would be set up to revise salaries of government employees.

The proposed pay commission would cover the salary prospects of some six lakh employees in the poll-bound state.
