Employees of a private company tasked with developing the Kurram-Tangi Dam have claimed that they are being deprived of their due allowances. The company, however, has claimed that it has no knowledge of any discrimination towards workers and has promised a probe. These workers have not been provided with their due allowances - including hardship allowance, social allowance, professional allowance, medical allowance, and education allowance - even as the company’s top executives continue to enjoy various perks and privileges. When approached, the managing director at MMP told The Express Tribune that he was not aware of any discrimination in paying allowances to workers.
