ABBOTTABAD:

Like other parts of the province, government employees in Abbottabad Thursday also held a protest rally and a press conference, warning the government of an indefinite sit-in in Peshawar if their three-point demand agenda is not fulfilled.

The All Government Employees Grand Alliance (AGEGA) demanded that the provincial budget include Disparity Reduction Allowance (DRA), pension reforms and salary increases equal to those granted by the federal government.

AGEGA President Zulfiqar Abbasi and others said that government employees are stakeholders of the state.
