    In INDIA the Pandemic Corona virus was declared by our Prime Minister only on 21st March, 2020, but the D.A./D.R. from 1-1-2020 so JCM Leader may represent Government that the D.A. points the period of price index from July to December, 2019 of 4% (total 17+4=21%), so it should be given to the Employees/Pensioners from 1-1-2020 to 31-03-2020. All the ASSOCIATION may look into matter.
