PESHAWA: Qaumi Watan Party (QWP) provincial Chairman Sikandar Hayat Khan Sherpao on Friday rejected the 10 percent raise in the salary of government employees in the federal budget and said that it should have been raised by 25 percent.
Addressing a gathering in Matta Union Council in Shabqadar tehsil in Charsadda district, he said the government employees were compelled to take to the streets in the scorching heat in Islamabad.
On the occasion, scores of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) workers, including Malik Irfan Khan, Malik Farhan Khan, Malik Fahim Khan, Malik Naveed and others announced joining the QWP. They reposed confidence in the party leadership and vowed to work for strengthening the party at the grassroots.
Welcoming the new entrants into the party fold, Sikandar Sherpao offered QWP caps to them and assured them that the party would not let them down. Criticising the PTI government for its flawed economic policies, Sikandar Sherpao said the per capita debt now stood at Rs172,727, which spoke volumes about the performance of the rulers.
