APROPOS the media reports that the federal government has recommended an almost 120 percent increase in the salary of federal government employees in BPS 1 to BPS 22. This recommendation has been made in the wake of the increasing cost of basic necessities of life. I would like to remind the government that the pensions of retired employees are equally if not harder hit by inflation.

            Therefore, this is a request on behalf of all pension-drawing retired government employees that their pensions also be increased by at least 50 percent preferably more, with effect from January 1st, 2020.
