HYDERABAD: Chaos rules the roost
By Our Correspondent
HYDERABAD, July 29: Officials of Sindh Fisheries Department made a mockery of provincial government’s much-talked-about transparent recruitment process for appointment in BPS-01 to BPS-15 by sheer mismanagement. Candidates tore up their test papers in protest here on Tuesday. Interestingly, this drama was staged in Hyderabad centre – the home city of Sindh Fisheries Minister, Zahid Ali Bhurgari.
It was nothing but an attempt by officials to either hoodwink candidates or they were bereft as how to receive applications, conduct written test, and manage interviews of successful candidates. The department not only invited ire of candidates who turned up for tests but the whole process was rescheduled late on Tuesday.
The department had announced walk-in interviews for BPS-1 to BPS-4 of various categories, while written tests for BPS-5 to BPS-15 were also scheduled at the same time, day and place without proper seating arrangements and segregation.
This led to chaotic conditions while officials locked themselves up. There was no one to guide as candidates reached the office, located off Fatima Jinnah road in the morning to submit application, give test and interview.
The doors of the office remained closed with clerical staff seen receiving applications from behind the wall. Resultantly, candidates thronged the office and majority scaled over the wall. The clerk was asking candidates to appear in test without even submitting documents for BPS-5 to BPS-15.
Meanwhile, Director Fisheries Sindh Inland Hyderabad notified that interviews/written test fixed on July 29 at Hyderabad Centre for recruitment on vacant posts of BPS-1 to BPS-15 in Sindh Fisheries Department had been rescheduled.
Applications will be received till July 30 by the Directorate of Fisheries. Written test and interviews for BPS-5 to 9 will be held on August 2 at 11am and written test/interviews of BPS-10 to 15 on August 3 at 11am at Public School Latifabad, while interviews of BPS 1-04 will be held on August 4 at the same place and time.
