RAWALPINDI:

Employees' organisations across the country, including teachers, doctors, clerks, lecturers, and grade 1 to 4 staff, along with labour unions, have announced a long march to Islamabad on the federal budget day and sit-ins outside the Punjab Assembly on the provincial budget day.

Organisations including AIGGA, APCA, Professors and Lecturers Association, and Education and Railway Pensioners Associations have demanded a 100 per cent increase in salaries and pensions in view of rising inflation and a sharp increase in petroleum prices.

They announced that on the federal budget day, a long march will be held from PIMS to Parliament, while a sit-in will take place outside the Punjab Assembly on the provincial budget day.
