The annual education allowance for differently-abled children of government employees has been hiked from Rs. 30,000 to Rs. 54,000.

Hostel allowance for children has also been increased to Rs. 6,750.

If both parents are government servants, only one can apply for reimbursement.

The new rules are in accordance with the provisions of the 7th Pay Commission.

Reimbursements will be released once annually, at the end of the financial year.

For reimbursement of the education allowance, employees need to provide a certificate from the head of the institution confirming the child studied there that year.
