ISLAMABAD: According to Federal Minister of Finance and Revenue Muhammad Aurangzeb, the government has chosen to eliminate 150,000 unfilled positions, disband one ministry, and combine two more.
Speaking to the media in Islamabad on Sunday, he said that the rightsizing committee had chosen to eliminate 60% of the open seats with the permission of the federal cabinet, which would help save costs.
