The bill for increase in salaries was accepted by KPK assembly which has a majority from PTI, while PTI chairman previously opposed the increase of salaries in National Assembly which has a PMLN majority
Previously the salaries of Chief Ministers, MPA’s and others were also increased by PTI government and it’s the second time that the salaries were increased by 3 to 5 times.
KPK government is facing criticism that salaries are increased by huge margins while the performance of assembly remains the same. It was also observed that many members didn’t attend any sessions for many months.
