KARACHI: The Sindh High Court has ordered to maintain restrictions on government jobs in the case of providing grade one to 15 government jobs across Sindh.


Justice Zafar Ahmad Rajput of Sindh High Court heard the case of providing grade one to 15 government jobs across the province, during which the court gave strong remarks on the way government jobs were given by the previous government, saying that the government was going to the deputy. The commissioners were asked to give government jobs on open and blank appointment letters that the person is coming, give the job letter, many deputy commissioners went on leave.


Justice Zafar Rajput said that the people were told to collect the blank appointment letters from the office of the Deputy Commissioners, while the public prosecutor supported the court's remarks.



Justice Zafar Rajput said that we have to take care of merit and transparency in government jobs, earlier there was SRTC, the transport organization, it was also destroyed, the institutions will remain the same, we will not remain.


The court said that if the institutions are run under the system, everyone will benefit, if they are run without the system, only those who do government jobs will benefit.


The court ordered Sindh Institute of Child Healthcare and Dawood Engineering University to issue clear advertisements again for contract employees.


The court expressed its displeasure over the release of government jobs in Sisi despite the injunction and asked how to release government jobs when the injunction was issued.


Lawyer MQM Farogh Naseem took a stand and said that an SO in the transport department released 40 jobs, action should be taken against the Chief Secretary of Sindh and others. How are the jobs and salaries being released?


The court ordered to maintain the ban on government jobs and adjourned further hearing till January 15, 2024.
