Islamabad: The Ministry of Federal Education and Professional Training (MOFE&PT) has restored the earlier mechanism for submitting pension cases for retired teachers working in educational institutions under the ambit of the Federal Directorate of Education (FDE).

This move has come as a relief to many teachers whose pension cases had been stuck, and they have lauded the education ministry for resolving their issues.

According to some retired teachers, the recent notification from the education ministry has allowed the processing of pension cases to resume.

Dr Rahima Rehman, President of the Federal Government College Teachers Association, commended the swift action taken by the education secretary.

Now, teachers will submit their pension cases to the AGPR through the FDE route,” Dr Rahima stated.
