A proposal to raise police and armed forces salaries by 40 percent in 2012 has been submitted to Parliament today by the government.
Mulaku MP Abdulla Yameen, also Parliamentary Group Leader of opposition Progressive Party of Maldives (PPM), criticised the government for decreasing civil servant salaries while increasing those of police and armed forces.
The raise was allegedly included in the proposed Rf14 billion budget which was submitted to Parliament last week, Haveeru reports.
Yameen allegedly learned of the proposal from the budget review committee rather than the budget itself, reports Haveeru.
The Civil Service Commission (CSC) has meanwhile requested parliament to include any unpaid civil servants’ salaries and allowances in the 2012 budget without conditions.
