The Sindh government has increased the house rent allowance for secretariat employees, bringing relief to government staff posted in the province.
What Has Changed
According to the announcement, the revised allowance will apply to eligible secretariat employees under the updated rates. Employees were demanding an increase for a long time because of rising house rents in Karachi and other cities.
The finance department is expected to issue the formal notification with the exact rates and the date from which the new allowance will take effect. Employees should check the official notification for their grade and eligibility.
