Policy Shift in Sindh Government Employment Framework
The Sindh government has officially abolished the job quota for children of deceased employees, aligning its policies with Supreme Court directives. This significant change reflects the government’s commitment to merit-based recruitment practices.
Cabinet Approval and Notification Issued
The Sindh Cabinet approved the decision to terminate the “deceased quota” policy, which previously allowed candidates to secure government jobs based on their parents’ employment status. A formal notification has been issued, confirming that no further appointments will be made under this framework across the province.
Impact of the Landmark Policy Change
This move is a step towards promoting transparency and fairness in public sector employment. While it adheres to judicial directives, it also sets a new precedent for public sector recruitment policies.
Implications for Affected Families
The decision has sparked discussions on the impact on families who relied on this quota, raising questions about potential welfare measures to support them.
