NWFP chief minister Ameer Haider Khan Hoti has said that the government employees were the backbone for running the affairs of government machinery, saying his government will spare no effort in providing them their rights and facilities.
Chief Minister was addressing Regi Lalma Township plots allotment letters distribution ceremony among the secretariat employees at the Sabzazar of Civil Secretariat on Monday.
Provincial senior ministers Bashir Ahmad Bilour and Rahimdad Khan, provincial information minister Mian Iftikhar, Engineer Humayun Khan, Arshad Abdullah, Nimroz Khan, Saleem Khan, MPAs additional chief secretary and other officials and a large number of secretariat employees and their leaders were present on the occasion.
Addressing the gathering, Ameer Haider Khan Hoti said that the government was aware of the problems and difficulties being faced by the government employees who were feeding their families in low paid salaries. However, he said the provincial government within the available resources will provide maximum relief to the government employees.
He said it was the right of the secretariat employees to be given plots in Regi Lalma Township, as they were also part of this world where poverty and other problems of life had gripped the humanity. The chief minister said the distribution of allotment letters among the secretariat employees was delayed due to his hectic engagements regarding security problems in the province.
Hoti said it was the main objective of his government to restore peace in the province. He said without peace there will be no development and prosperity. Hoti also said that the employees will submit the amount in eight instalments which were earlier four and the time of instalment submission has also been increased to six months. On request of the employees, the chief minister also lifted four-year ban on sale and purchase of the plots.
However, he said the ban was imposed in a view that the plots were the right of the employees families, as many workers had sold their plots on throwing rates which was actually the usurpation of the rights of their children. Hoti said the government employees were very much upset due to economic constrains, saying the allotment of plots to their families will help mitigate their problems to some extent.
