SAD flays Cong govt for not paying timely salaries to health workers

Chandigarh, Aug 1 (UNI)The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) on Saturday came down heavily on the Congress government for not paying salaries to health care workers engaged in COVID-19 duties as revealed in the Supreme Court and asked Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh to streamline the administration to ensure frontline workers were not discriminated against in any manner whatsoever.
In a statement here, former minister Dr Daljit Singh Cheema said it was surprising that despite clear cut directions of the apex court to ensure timely payment of salaries to health workers the Congress government had been found wanting in this matter. He said the Chief Minister should ensure timely payment of salaries to ensure health workers, who were at the fore front of the fight against the deadly pandemic, did not feel demoralised.
“We also owe this to our brave fighters who have been working ceaseless since months at a grave personal risk to control COVID-19 ”, he added.
