Govt. should recruit graduates and mostly talented youngsters in IB. Three should be easy way to join and get complete access in respect of recruitment in IB to graduates,despite of complicated and tough way to reach here. what is the easy way to know about announced recruitment in above said dept?
Please get them (IB) a proper bureau and away from residential areas They are still housed in a Hindu house on the mall.
It is appreciable that this,govt has taken IB dept seriously unlike PPP led last govt.....good move to make this important intel branch effective unlike last govt for reasons best known to them....the effective steps that this govt is taking through MOI is making our Eastern neighbor uneasy and LOC disturbances is one reason to divert govt attention.....many may not believe but is there any other reason when the new govt has extended olive branch to India from day one ?
Good move. Make sure recruitment are on merit. Better give those affected by terrorism in IB. They will work without the fear of life.
well done PM sahib. good move
Well, all I can say is that Nawaz should be appreciated in terms of clearing up such bottlenecks created by the PPP govt in the institutions, causing these agencies to suffer. While they used PIA and Steel Mills to hire an exorbitant number of inefficient and incapable people. Seriously there should be a recruitment ban on PIA!!
Recruitment Ban...??? wasnt mian saab the one who use to yell out loud in his speeches that there will be so many job that people will be choosing where to work...and every one will be given free loans....
And the influx of personnel with leaning towards PMLN and sympathizers of LeJ and TTP begins. You can't put vultures to guard meat.
The Intelligence Bureau (IB) should not only recruit full time employees, but IB should also recruit people of clean background from different segments of society, on part time basis in the entire country who should give input to IB Regional Offices and adequate remunerations should be paid to keep the contacts intact.
I would suggest that similar arrangements should also be made with ISI and MI as the input to combat terrorism with the help of honourable citizens should be obtain to defeat militancy, target killings and to eradicate other crimes from the country.
Good move PM. I hope deserving candidates dont have to pay any price. PM can not control everything so people should speak up if there is corruption in interview process.
