In a recent public interaction, Prime Minister Imran Khan revealed that he barely manages expenses in his current salary.

During a meet and greet with business leaders, Khan said that he had cut down on Prime Minister House’s expenses by 40 percent, which has also impacted his lifestyle.

I live in my own home, pay my own expenses. My [official] salary is not enough to cover the costs of my household.

While the statement was widely dragged out of proportion and was subjected to criticism from the opposition, Imran Khan’s comments might be justified as this is how much the premier earns.

According to an official salary slip issued from the Prime Minister House, Prime Minister Khan’s salary is indeed less than what his cabinet’s ministers earn. Even the chief ministers of all four provinces receive more than the country’s Prime Minister.

The slip shows that Khan receives:

  • Rs. 107,280 in terms of basic salary,
  • Rs. 50,000 as a sumptuary allowance,
  • Rs. 21,456 in ad hoc relief allowance,
  • Rs. 12,110 in ad hoc allowance under 2011 contract
  • Ad hoc relief of Rs. 10,728.
