KARACHI, Jan 23: Medical facilities for the employees of the defunct KDA have been restored on the intervention of the city government.
All employees of the KDA will continue to get same salaries and other perks which they had been enjoying prior to the amalgamation of the KDA with the city government.
A decision on restoration of medical facilities to the KDA employees was taken by the city government’s executive district officer (finance and planning), Shoaib Siddiqui, when a delegation of KDA’s Labour Union called on the former to apprise him about the employees’ apprehensions in the wake of KDA’s merger in the City government.
Taking spontaneous action about the employees’ medical facilities, the EDO directed the chief transition officer (KDA Wing), Mukkaram Sultan Bukhari, to immediately restore medical facilities of the KDA employees and his directives resulted in the issuance of an official letter the same day whereby medical facilities of the employees had been restored.
Reiterating that neither the salaries, nor any perks of the defunct KDA’s employees will be curtailed, the EDO asked the employees to strive hard for boosting the organisation’s income so that they could continue to get their salaries on time.
