Appointment Against Law

Contract / work charge employees Sindh Building Control Authority (SBCA) Hyderabad, protested against the government. They said that "they are working since many years but their salaries are still same (3000-5000 per month) that amount is insufficient to live. Employees demanded to be regularize on their current posts on which they are working since many years". During the protest of Contract/work charge employees, list of 200 selected candidates is shown to different media / officials. These were selected purely on political basis. It is further reported that more than 500 selections are still in pending (on political base).

Contract / work charge employees further said that "Now, it can't be further tolerated. We spent alot of time in department but still we are not regularized. Instead of regularization to contract employees, government is appointing new empoyees... why? This is our right be become regular 1st, then make new appointment if needed"
