The government of Sindh has proposed a 10 percent adhoc relief allowance for the employees (from BPS-01 to BPS-22) in order to equip them to bear the impact of inflation.
For the pensioners, Sindh has proposed an increase of 7 percent in the next fiscal year i.e. FY 2025-26. The cumulative impact of these relief measures will be around Rs. 52 billion per annum.
The relief is similar to the one announced by the federal government for the next fiscal year. Other provinces are also likely to adopt similar increases in both salaries and pensions.
