  • Grant of Adhoc Relief Allowance 2025 @ 10% of current / running basic pay
  • Increase in Pension for the pensioners @ 5% of the net pension
  • Minimum Wage Rates increased from Rs. 37,000/- per month to Rs. 40,000/- per month.

 

Demands of Employees

 

This seems to be a not-so-good salary increase package for the Punjab Government employees. As there is no mention of the Disparity Reduction Allowance (DRA) 2025. The Punjab Government employees have already demanded that their salaries should increase, keeping in view the hike in prices of daily use items. They demanded that their salaries and pensions should increase minimum @ 50%. They are facing a lot of financial issues due to their low salary. The pensioners are also facing the same issues..
