A seven-member delegation of sacked employees of United Bank Limited (UBL) headed by Muhammad Anwar Usmani, Chairman Central Action Committee for sacked employees met Federal Minister for Labour and Manpower Syed Khursheed Ahmad Shah and Senator Raza Rabbani in Parliament House on Tuesday.
During the meeting the delegation demanded of the Federal Minister that 5,416 UBL employees, who were sacked from their services on 12 October 1997 should be reinstated under the Reinstatement Ordinance 2009.
The Minister told the delegation that their case does not come under 27-B section of the Ordinance due to which there were some legal complications in reference with their reinstatement. However, the Minister assured the delegation that the government will reinstate the sacked employees of the UBL after removing the complications soon after the budget.-PR
