NTS fee

Published January 11, 2015

THIS refers to the National Test Servicing (NTS) in Balochistan. The government has given 4,539 jobs through the NTS. It is a commendable step towards the welfare of Balochistan.

But, unfortunately, officials are receiving a hefty fee (Rs1,000) per applicant, though in Sindh the fee is Rs30 only. The government should look into the matter and ask for the same amount as is being taken in Sindh by the NTS.
