Earned leaves will increase
People associated with labor unions want the limit of earned leave to be increased from 240 to 300 days. New laws related to labor reforms were passed by the Parliament in September 2020. Now the Central Government is trying to implement these as soon as possible. Although the government wants to implement these as soon as possible but has not been able to do so. Now this time it is expected that the government can announce something in this regard in the budget.
