JAMMU, July 2: All J&K Low Paid Employees Federation (LPEF) has stressed upon the authorities for speedy redressal of their outstanding demands like enhancement of medical allowance from Rs 300 to Rs 1000 per month.
The demands were discussed during a meeting of provincial committee of the Federation held here under the chairmanship of Kabla Singh, president, LPEF Kathua. In a resolution unanimously adopted in the meeting, the stress was laid upon raising medical allowance from Rs 300 to at least Rs 1000 on central pattern as the medicare expenses are rising sky high day by day.
