Notices issued on secretary’s plea against reversion
Petitioner alleged that the government authorities are wrongly treating him as a deputationist.
Petitioner alleged that the government authorities had issued orders to revert him back while misinterpreting the apex court’s orders.
KARACHI:
The Sindh High Court (SHC) bench, headed by Justice Irfan Saadat Khan, on Wednesday issued notices to the provincial chief secretary and the advocate general on a secretary’s plea against his reversion allegedly under the cover of Supreme Court’s orders.
Muhammad Jaffar Abbasi told the judges that he had joined the provincial government service as deputy secretary (regulations) of the Sindh Public Service Commission in February, 1987, in basic pay scale-17, which was later upgraded to BPS-18. Later, the services and general administration department transferred Abbasi for absorption in the Sindh Provincial Secretariat Service. The petitioner submitted that the apex court had struck down the services law, which protected out-of-turn promotions, deputations, absorptions and re-employment of the retired officers in different departments of the Sindh government, as found to have been made without following rule nine of the Service Rules, 1974.
He alleged that the government authorities were wrongly treating him as a deputationist and had issued orders to revert him back while misinterpreting the apex court’s orders. He pleaded to the court to restrain the officials from reverting him.
