CDGK education dept defies recruitment ban
Karachi: The education department of the City District Government Karachi
(CDGK) has issued over 400 appointment letters mainly for non-teaching posts in
government schools despite a ban on recruitment and transfers in government
departments, it has been learnt. Moreover, the quarters concerned have
alleged that these jobs have been offered on the basis of political
considerations. The ban on new employments was imposed to discourage
out-of-turn appointments and transfers in Sindh government departments. However,
owing to reasons best known to the authorities concerned, around 450 appointment
letters have been issued in the CDGK education department, allegedly to workers
and supporters of the coalition partners of the provincial government, sources
said. It is also worth mentioning here that, earlier, authorities,
including the offices of the education minister, had denied reports of these
appointments. Sindh Education Minister Pir Mazhar Ul Haq said that
only offer orders were issued "to streamline things, so that it would take less
time to release appointment orders; the latter, however, is conditional to the
lifting of the ban." In September, the authorities release offer orders
from grades 1 to 15, without conducting any formal proceedings; these posts were
never advertised, sources informed. The letter, which is typed, contains
the hand-written name of the candidate, the father's name, the Computerised
National Identity Card number, and name of the place where the candidate is
supposed to report, they said. The letters are signed by the CDGK
Executive District Officer (EDO) Education, Ibrahim Kumbhar The
education department has allegedly issued these appointment letters for the
posts of Naib-Qasid, lab-attendant, lab assistant, sweeper, Chowkidar, junior
clerk, assistant clerk and computer operator. However, no written tests were
conducted for the posts of assistant clerk and computer operator, sources said,
adding that no deceased or son quota is offered, and all appointments were
allegedly made on the grounds of political affiliations. They further
said that appointment orders with the postings were issued from Monday, and the
candidates were trying to get the jobs at their favourite places, instead of
being deployed at the assigned locations.

Shagird Ittehad, they started the protest rally from the Islamia College, which
turned into a big demonstration outside the Badin Press Club after passing
through the roads of Badin. The students staged a sit-in there for more than an
hour. The rally was led by student leader Shahid Jokhio. Addressing the
students, Shahid said the massive increase in fee in a year was unfair and a
huge burden on their parents. The students demanded of the governor of Sindh to
solve the issue before the closure of the submission date of admission fee. The news
