The Govt announces early salaries and pensions for Christian employees in Balochistan ahead of Christmas. The provincial authorities have approved the advance disbursement of December 2025 payments to support Christian workers during the festive season.
According to an official notification, salaries and pensions that were originally scheduled for January 1, 2026, will now be released on December 22, 2025. This adjustment is aimed at ensuring timely financial support for Christian employees and pensioners across the province.
The Govt announces this step to help Christian citizens celebrate Christmas without financial stress. The early payment will allow families to manage their holiday expenses more comfortably and enjoy the festival with ease. Officials stated that the decision reflects the province’s commitment to supporting its minority communities.
The announcement comes as Christian families prepare for Christmas, which will be celebrated on December 25. The government hopes the advance payment will help families purchase essential items, gifts, and food for traditional celebrations. Many employees often face financial pressure at the end of the year, and the new schedule is expected to ease this burden.
In addition to the provincial move, the federal government has also released its holiday schedule. December 25, 2025, will be observed as Quaid-e-Azam Day nationwide. A special holiday for Christian employees has also been approved for December 26, allowing them to continue their Christmas celebrations.
The Govt announces this measure at a time when efforts are being made to promote inclusivity and support religious harmony in the province. Officials believe the decision will help Christian pensioners and employees celebrate their religious festival with dignity and comfort.
Christmas holds deep cultural and religious importance for the Christian community in Balochistan, as in other parts of Pakistan. The early disbursement will enable families to prepare for the festival with joy, ensuring they can fully participate in the celebrations without financial concerns.
