AGPR strike: Thousands without salary

Tens of thousands of Federal government employees including president, prime minister, federal ministers and top judges, could not receive their monthly salaries as Accountant General Pakistan Revenue (AGPR) workers continued their strike for the 26th consecutive day on Wednesday.
Over 7, 000 employees of AGPR are on strike over the past many days in support of their demands for pay raise and improvement in service structure. No work is being performed by the APGR employees, who simply come to their offices, mark their attendance and sit idle for rest of the day. They were calling for pay raise at par with salaries of other federal workers besides audit and pension allowance and service structure.
The AGPR workers said they were forced to go on strike after their demands were ignored by the government. AGPR action committee president warned that if their demands were not fulfilled, they would stop other benefits to be released for Eid package.
On the other hand, federal government employees who are normally paid on the first of every month, went home without any salary to the dismay of their families. There is no time limit by which date the salary would be paid to them because of the disorderly procedure being followed in Pakistan where the Finance Ministry allocates funds, concerned departments prepare the salary bills and then the cheques are issued by the AGPR.

  4. Discrimination should come to an end. All the FG employees should be given equal pay structure. The AGPR/AGP employees are on right no one is listening to them since july. The right should be given to them.

  7. As a federal government emplyee have witnessed that the AGPR is the most corrupt department and the AGPR employees and not just dependent on salaries they getting commissions on every payment including medical expenses. Striking employees should be kicked out of AGPR

  8. AGPR is doing very well job about increasing the salery of Federal Government employees. The salery should be increased and and equall to others federal govt employees. I and about thousand of federal govt employees want that their salery and allowances should equal then others. Now the govt has been declare the difference salery package in federal govt departments and ministries which is injustice.
