KPK PCS exam centres

Published January 11, 2011

KPK Provincial Management Services (PCS) authorities have been most illogical in the allotment of examination halls for PMS candidates. The examinations are supposed to start from Jan 17.

KPK PCS arranged examination halls on the basis of domicile, a problem faced by almost 80 per cent of candidates. We had provided our current addresses to receive our roll numbers, hoping that the examination centres would be arranged nearby; not expecting that they would be set up on the basis of our domiciles.

I will have to travel all the way to Kohat from Peshawar on a daily basis because there is no other option left.

It is humbly requested that KPK PCS authorities concerned should relocate the examination centres on the basis of candidates' current addresses.
