The state government's decision to withdraw the notification just a day after its issuance has shed light on what critics are denouncing as the Sukhu administration's stance on the issue of payment of arrears on revision of pay scales.
The abrupt reversal by the government underscores the immense power held by the state's employees, who have a history of influencing governmental decisions and shaping public policy.
With their collective voice amplified, they have once again asserted their dominance, prompting a reevaluation of the contentious pay revision and payment of their arrears.
The BJP's intervention in this matter not only highlights the political maneuvering at play but also underscores the deep-seated tensions between rival parties vying for control the employees.
As the debate rages on, the fate of the payment of arreras on revised pay scales hangs in the balance as employees are seeking revision on Punjab payscales.
