Zehri asks depts to fill vacancies

Zehri called the secretaries of relevant departments and sought details of requirement

QUETTA: Balochistan Chief Minister Sanaullah Zehri expressed anger over vacancies in different provincial government departments and has sought a report from the authorities concerned in this regard.
Zehri called the secretaries of the departments of communication, social welfare, Haj and Auqaf and asked them to explain the recruitment process in their departments.
The CM said that a large number of posts have been lying vacant in various departments and the departments were not making any recruitment. He added that their inaction was creating unrest among the educated youth who have been looking for jobs.
Zehri informed the secretaries that decreasing unemployment was part of the government’s priories and to resolve this issue a large number of vacancies were created in different government departments.



However, he said that since long the process of filling vacant posts in some departments has been suspended without any reason.
The CM said, “A political government evolves policies and gives vision, while implementation is the responsibility of bureaucracy.”
He added that non-implementation of policies affects the credibility of the government.
Zehri ordered the provincial departments to start the recruitment process, saying all recruitments should be made on merit.

The CM said, “All the government departments should complete the process of recruitment on the vacancies pending vacant till December 31 and submit report to him.”
