FORCED RETIREES: The officials, sent on forced retirements by former governor Amirul Mulk Mengal, have reported for duty to the services and general administration department here on Saturday after the Supreme Court restored their services.
Mr Mengal had compulsorily retired few officials of grade 19 and 20 but they filed appeals in the Balochistan service tribunal and then in the apex court.
The Supreme Court in last month accepted the appeals and reinstated them by declaring the orders of the former governor as null and void.
Two ex-principal secretaries to the chief minister, Malik Irfan Kasi and Jan Mohammad Dashti, former secretary local government Mohammad Hashim Mengal and ex-superintending engineer of the communications and works department Kaleem Nasar reported for duty.
