Khyber Pakhtunkhwa finance minister Taimur Saleem Jhagra on Friday said an increase in the retirement age of government employees could save the province Rs140 billion in around 10 years. On Thursday, the Supreme Court had set aside the Peshawar High Court’s Feb 2020 decision to turn down the KP government’s move to increase its employee’s upper age limit from 60 years to 63 years, and referred the matter back to the high court for fresh decision.
