PESHAWAR: The provincial police department has tasked the Educational Testing and Evaluation Agency (ETEA), Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, with conducting the B1 examination for the in-service promotion of constables for the year 2015 to ensure merit, transparency and fair-play. The examination will be held on March 8.
According to a statement issued here on Wednesday, the examination would be conducted at Peshawar, Swat, Abbottabad and Kohat centres simultaneously. Constables of district police, traffic police, women police and elite force would appear in the examination.
The statement said that ETEA had been successfully conducting entry tests for the professional medical and engineering colleges every year.
Last year, it said, more than 9,000 constables had appeared in the said examination, of which 2,500 had passed it.
Inspector General of Police Nasir Khan Durrani while expressing satisfaction over the new system said that it would put an end to nepotism and favoritism and would provide equal opportunity to jawans for attaining high rank in the force through sheer hard work.
