No direction to halt salaries: Ishaq Dar

ISLAMABAD: Ishaq Dar has taken to the Twitter to term the news published on Saturday (25th of Feb, 2023) by a section of the Media as fake that insinuates that Ministry of Finance had instructed the AGPR to cease the clearing of bills including salaries.

“Fake news and spreading the same cause harm to the national economic interests.

“Kindly refrain from circulating such reports/news without verifying same from the concerned ministry!”

By means of a PR the Ministry has stated: “There are rumors floating around that government has instructed to stop payment of pay, pension, etc.

“This is completely false as no such instructions have been given by Finance division, which is the concerned federal ministry.

“AGPR has confirmed that pay and pension have already been processed and will be paid on time .

“Further, other payments are being processed as per routine.“
