Dear Sir,
I am a senior doctor,not working in health deptt of Govt of the Punjab.
My deptt has agreed to provide all admissible allowances to me since my date of joining,as are allowed for doctors in Health Deptt Govt of the Punjab.
I understand that such allowances would be
1.NPA Non practicing allowance
2.HPA Health Professional allowance.
3.Special Health care allowance.
And maybe Health sector Reform allowance as well.
I need the copies of notifications of these allowances from their starting date,up till now.
I have searched your wonderful site,but hasn’t found all the notifications in choronological sequence.
Moreover my department refused to upgrade my post in 2012 because the member finance gave a document that there was a ban on up gradation at that time.
But since then that ban might have lifted many times.
They gave me an allowance in lieu of up gradation.
Should I apply now that the said compensation allowance should have Increased annually with increase in pay or inflation of governments annual increases in budget ?
I need your kind advice upon it.
I do hope that like you have helped so many,I will be immensely benefitted too by your humane selfless service towards humanity.
I am near retirement and your help will greatly facilitate me.
My most humble regards
Dr Muhammad Ch.
