let us clearly grasp the true essence of css exams. actually css exams are conducted to select matchless and impeccable youngsters of Pakistan in order to sustain the bureaucracy. Since the very aim of css is that (above mentioned) then why there are such allocations on the basis of quota?????? this is the gross injustice to the very fabric of meritocracy.........Intelligentsia must ponder over this concern.
I don't agree with full open merit policy ........ if there is open merit policy then there will be no representation of smaller/backward provinces in the higher bureaucracy of Pakistan. Currently all the Chief Secretaries working in the four provinces belong from Punjab. There is no single federal secretary in Islamabad belonging from Balochistan. When we see such injustices then we say that we are being ruled as a colony of Punjab.
Introduce the quota for for Saraikistanis like urban and Rural SIndh.In 109 allocated for Punjab,i am sure,less than 5 will be Saraikistanis.
We are sick of being plundered by Punjabis at the name of Quota for Punjab.It's tool to deprive Saraikis of their due right in Pakistani elite jobs whether civeil or military.
Than people Central Punjab ask that why people hate us?? End this exploitation of Saraikistanis by the introducing urban and rual Pujab quota and compensate them for last 64 years exploitation.
Sindh Urban had more than 30 seats carried over from the previous years. Otherwise, Sindh urban only has a 7.5% quota.
@A J Khan: Your representative ANP is a Slave of PPP and why they should care. Sindh have got the share of Sindh and infact less than 30 percent Quota belong to them and they got the highest and KPK according to Population got the lowest but again ANP will agree with PPP whatever they want to and i am sure you will select ANP for the next time as well.
This Quota appears to be heavily tilted towards Sindh. The most affected appears to be Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The allocated quota as reported above is: 1. Punjab: 109 vacancies 2. Sindh : 97 3. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa : 28 2. Balochistan : 17 3. GB/FATA: 13 4. AJK : 4. This distribution appears to be political rather than constitutional. Can some Lawyer from Pakhtunkhwas challenge this injustice.
16 allotments to the superior services had been made on merit. On the other hand, 223 allotments were made on the basis of quotas for respective provinces. Why???? As long as Quota will exist nothing better could be expected in Pakistan. Shun the quota system for good so only merit can prevail.
