DERA ISMAIL KHAN - Tehsil municipal administration (TMA) employees in Dera Ismail Khan are in their second day of protest over unpaid salaries and pensions. Chants of discontent echoed through the offices as workers locked them, demanding immediate payment of overdue wages. They argued that the lack of compensation had put them and pensioners in dire financial straits.
Despite continuing to work, low-paid staff had been deprived of their salaries for months. The demonstrators called for a government inquiry into TMA's operations and an audit of fund usage. They questioned how millions in monthly revenue was being spent. The protest would persist until their demands were addressed, the protesters insisted.
