CIFA and TLA have signed an MoU to boost China-Turkmenistan logistics cooperation, focusing on mutual benefit, professional talent development, information exchange, and joint events. Growing collaboration includes the China-Europe Railway Express, cross-border transport, and strengthened port links, enhancing regional connectivity and integration. According to data, total trade between China and Turkmenistan reached $12.2 billion in 2024, representing an 8.4 per cent increase year-on-year.

8th Pay Commission: how much money officers up to level 8, level 9, soldiers & JCOs are getting as Siachen allowance under 7th Pay commission?
After the execution of 'Operation Sindoor' the life of soldiers and officers whose posting is in tough areas are discussed recently. Let us take a look at the Siachen Allowance provided to Jawans, JCOs (Level 8 and below), and Officers (Level 9 and above) under the 7th Pay Commission. Siachen Allowance Under 7th Pay Commission Considering the extreme challenges in weather and risks faced by officers deployed in Siachen, the 7th Central Pay Commission has given Siachen Allowance in the RH-Max cell with two new slabs. The allowance rates were increased as follows: For Jawans and JCOs (Level 8 and below): From Rs 14,000 to Rs 30,000 per month. For Officers (Level 9 and above): From Rs 21,000 to Rs 42,500 per month. This increase in Siachen Allowance is more than double its earlier rate. It will benefit the soldiers and officers who work in high-risk and high-altitude regions. Tough Location Allowance (TLA) In addition to the Siachen Allowance, the 7th CPC also revised other geographical allowances. Tough Location Allowance (TLA) replaced several allowances like Special Compensatory (Remote Locality) Allowance (SCRLA), Sunderban Allowance, and Tribal Area Allowance. The rates for TLA are categorized into three groups on the basis of geographical and weather conditions. It ranges between Rs 1,000 and Rs 5,300 per month, as per different cells of the R&H Matrix. Special Duty Allowance The 7th CPC suggested that TLA should not be given in combination with Special Duty Allowance (SDA) in areas like the North-East, Ladakh, and the Islands. But employees were given the option to take SCRLA at pre-revised rates with SDA at revised rates. 8th Pay Commission Speculations As discussions on the formation of the 8th Pay Commissions are going on, there is curiosity about the revisions for central government employees salary. Though nothing is officially announced yet, the 7th CPC allowances provide hints about the 8th Pay Commission.
