Lahore High Court (LHC) has ordered to stop payment of adhoc relief allowance to the lecturers who were regularised in 2016.
The court has also sought reply from the parties concerned on February 18.
The petition filed by lecturer Arshad Hussain and other lecturers was taken up for hearing by Justice Jawad Hassan of the LHC on Thursday.
The petitioners took the plea that adhoc relief allowance was being deducted from the salary of the lecturers who were regularised in 2016. Therefore, the orders for deduction of adhoc relief allowance from their salary should be set aside, they prayed.
The government lawyer pleaded that adhoc relief allowance was being deducted under protection rules. The lecturers who are regularised are not entitled to adhoc relief allowance, he argued.
