However, despite the Engineering University already falling under the provincial allowance system and being fully entitled to the benefit, its employees have not received the additional increase announced in the provincial budget for 2024\u201325.<br \/>\nThe association further expressed concern over the formation of a provincial government committee to address the issue, stating that linking the Engineering University\u2019s case with the same committee is unjustified. According to the association, since the university has already implemented all government directives, its case is distinct from other institutions and should not be subjected to the committee\u2019s process.<br \/>\nThe association reiterated its demand for the immediate release of the increased allowance to Engineering University employees without further procedural delays.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DLP Report PESHAWAR The employees\u2019 welfare association of University of Engineering (UET) Peshawar has demanded the immediate payment of a 15 percent increase in the Disparity Reduction Allowance (DRA) announced in the provincial budget, urging the authorities to exempt the university from any undue delay or further committee proceedings.
