Those who occupy positions that gives them access to cash, still stick around, only those without such access resign...

It becomes a dilema as the months keep increasing and the arreers keep accumulating. Will you leave and forfeit all the lost months, or stay with the hope getting paid at any moment?

I think you are correct, most staff usually get stuck in between hoping for the salary to be paid and resigning, which means forfeiture of salary

I get your point. They hoped till it got to 18 months. What useless organization we have in this country. Funny enough these media houses also criticise state governors for not being able to pay 6 months salary
