After successful negotiations with the All Government Employees Grand Alliance, the federal government has decided to increase the salaries of its employees by 40%.
In this regard, Federal Interior Minister, Sheikh Rasheed Ahmed, said that a formal announcement will be made before the upcoming budget, adding that the disparity in salaries will be addressed and recommendations of the Pay and Pension Commission will be implemented in the next budget.

The Minister noted that Prime Minister Imran Khan fully believes in the welfare of both federal and provincial employees.
However, the federal government cannot notify a raise in salaries of provincial employees because salary and pension have become a provincial subject after the passage of the 18th amendment.

Sheikh Rasheed also urged Chief Ministers of all provinces to increase the salaries of provincial employees.
Reports suggest that provincial employees have also decided to follow in the footsteps of federal employees and stage protests in order to get their demands of increase in salaries accepted.

Why tho ? Govt employees already take a lot of money.. why cant this money be invested in something better ?
yes obviously on the motor industry as to low the prices of vehicles.
No they do not? Their pay is very low, most are forced to do corruption. Pay increase is important due to yearly inflation.
Atleast 100% increase must be made because of inflation.
what about pensioners ? 40% increase increment should be done for pensioners too
Not a vice decision it increases operational expense and taxes to all who are paying regular taxes, if the government thinks to their employees then they should take relief measure to active tax payers also.

With alot of their benefits like guest hoses taken away, it was fitting that they would be compensated in a similar way. Although it would be nice that they use integrated technology for better audit.
