As per the news, Approval of 25% Special Allowance for Punjab Govt Employees has been made by the Chief Minister Punjab Sardar Usman Buzdar.
25% Special Allowance for Punjab Govt Employees
He rejected the proposal of 15% or 10% and allowed for the employees a Special Allowance @ 25% per month. This special allowance is till 30th June 2021. The Government will merge the allowance in the coming budget 2021-22. If the Government merges this allowance then there is much chance that Government will introduce Revised Basic Pay Scales 2021.
The GEO News Channel shared this news on 20-05-2021 at 1645 Hrs. This news still not confirmed when the employees will get this allowance. The employees demand the same from 1st March 2021 and there are chances that Government will implement the same wef 01-03-2021.
The employees of BPS-01 to BPS-19 will get this allowance. The number of employees who will get benefit from this allowance is 7, 21,000. The employees who are already getting this allowance, will not get the same. I hope the heading of this allowance the Government will suggest is Disparity Reduction Allowance 2021, which the Federal Government also granted to Federal employees.
The Chief Minister Punjab said the Government employees are their hands and arms. He further added that the employees will get more good news in the coming budget 2021-2022.
