Employees of Fire Department of the City District Government Karachi (CDGK) on Wednesday staged a protest at the head office to press their demand for resolving the issues of their salaries and overtime allowance. The protesters displayed placards and wore black arm bands. They also chanted slogans against the management of Fire Brigade/Department.
They demanded of the authorities concerned to pay heed to this burning issue. They said the employees of Fire Brigade Department are facing hardships to run their kitchens as the management has not only stopped providing overtime to them for last four months but is also using delaying tactics to pay their monthly emoluments.
When contacted, official source said that the management of Fire Brigade/Department has started deliberations in this regard, and added that the issue would be sorted out shortly. He said that the Sindh government has stopped providing funds to the district government, which led to create financial problems for CDGK to meet its running expenditures. Further, he said, the management of Fire Department has discussed this issue with higher authorities in CDGK and hoped that the issue would be resolved shortly.
