Complain about employees not getting paid
PESHAWAR:
The provincial government’s approval of Rs8 billion for the establishment of an Engineering University in Swat, the home district of Chief Minister Mahmood Khan, has irked public sector universities that are facing the worst financial crisis in their history and are not even able to pay salaries to their staff.
The University of Peshawar (UOP), the oldest in the province, has already issued a circular informing its employees that only basic salary will be paid to them in the month of February due to lack of funds and even the century-old Islamia College as well as Agriculture University Peshawar are faced with a similar situation in which they are seeking bailout packages from the government.
