Recruitment plan changed
PESHAWAR, March 30: The directorate of livestock
and dairy development will appoint 50 fresh
officers, deviating from its original plan to
induct 71 livestock research officers for which
the NWFP Public Service Commission had also
conducted tests , according to official sources.
Officials said that the directorate's management
had recently realised that it had about 50 vacant
posts instead of 71 for which the Provincial
Public Service Commission (PSC) had conducted
competitive examination some time ago and
successful candidates had also been interviewed
for the final selection.
According to sources, a total of 108 candidates
had been interviewed of which 71 were to be
appointed as per the original plan. The sources
said that after realizing the mistake the
authorities concerned of the directorate were
trying to rectify the situation to avoid an
embarrassing situation.
Certain official circles are also attempting to
cover up the blunder but senior authorities of the
agriculture and livestock and dairy development
department, NWFP, had instructed the directorate
to take action against officers concerned.
"The parent department has instructed the
directorate to fill the number of vacant posts and
the responsible officer(s) be made accountable for
the mistake," said a source.
An approval to the effect of filling the earlier
perceived 71 vacant posts had also been obtained
from the finance department, NWFP, said the
sources, following which a case for conducting
examination had been forwarded to the PSC by the
directorate.
The process to induct 71 livestock research
officers had been initiated in March 2003 and
after remaining under process for ay ear the
authorities concerned, said the sources, had
recently come to know that they could induct 50
officers. Under the given circumstances, added the
sources, the last 21 on the final list of
successful candidates would be dropped.
