KARACHI: The Sindh High Court (SHC) on Tuesday asked the provincial law officer to justify transfer and posting on own pay scale (OPS) basis and award of additional charge to government officers.
Hearing a petition against appointment of lower grade officers on higher grade on own pay scale and awarding additional charges to government officers in different departments, the SHC division bench headed by Justice Muhammad Shafi Siddiqui directed the provincial law officer to justify the said steps.
Petitioner Syed Manzoor Shah and others had sought a declaration to the effect that the posting and transfers of government servants on OPS basis, look-after charge and in addition to his duties are illegal, unconstitutional and violative of fundamental rights. He said that OPS officers are not entitled to hold the higher post under Rule 8-A (i) of Sindh Civil Servants (Appointment, Promotion & Transfer)
