KARACHI: Sindh Senior Minister for Education and Literacy Pir Mazharul Haq said that his department would adopt the legal path to regularise the services of ad-hoc lower staff members and vacancies would be advertised.

In a statement issued on Saturday, Haq said that the government will advertise for posts and recruit the contractual lower staff so that no future government could render them jobless.

He spoke in light of the recent situation in which dozens of contract employees including peons and janitorial staff are protesting for the regularisation of their jobs.
