He further added that there is also no proposal to revise the pension structure for federal government employees. However, the minister mentioned that the government is reviewing the limits for hiring and ceiling allowances for employees. On the other hand, the Finance Ministry replied that it is considering increasing the limit on hiring private houses for government employees.

People like you are the reason this country is in this mess. I do not support the former or the current government, however, to say that this government is better than the last one shows that you have an intellectual level of a tea pot. Instead of supporting leaders, start supporting your country. when things are wrong, have the backbone to call them wrong no matter what government is in power.
Jo jail mein charsi gadha baitha hai woh aur bhee jahil aur nakama hai
tum teen gadhey kyun larh rahe ho apne apne leader ko salam thoko aur fauj ka shukriya ada kro ke gadhey woh chun kr dete hein.

Bcz he wants his own salary to rise
So? What’s the big deal?! 🤷♂️
The ministers just got their 200% salary raise. All is well in their world. The rest of us can “go fish!” 🤣
All of them, regardless of party affiliations, agreed on their pay raise. They really know which issues are worth standing together on and fighting together for. 🙄Makes you proud!!!🤦♂️
Well he had to pay himself . 😆
Assalamu Alaikum Meri Imtiaz kare
کچھ کابینہ کے نئے بھرتی ملازمین کو باہر نکال پھینکو ، ان سے مراعات واپس لو اور محنتی عوام کی تنخواہ اور پنشن بڑھاؤ۔
Government cannot afford such massive salary hikes of government employees. Now its time to reduce workforce and such huge salaries and facilities are not justified at all. If it will continue then Pakistan will default
Very bad. Is there any news of salary tax reduction that was increased in last budget?
For the level of services govt employees provide their salaries should be cut in half.
