Serious questions concerning governance and transparency have been raised by allegations of corruption and unlawful appointments inside the Sindh Public Service Commission (SPSC).
In relation to these claims, the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has opened an inquiry against the former chairman of the SPSC and a number of other people.
The current chairman of the SPSC has been asked by the NAB to furnish the records of sixteen officials, including Noor Muhammad Jadmani, the previous chairman.
The chairman has been instructed by the accountability watchdog to turn in all of the paperwork within a week.
A complete record of all judicial filings against the SPSC has also been requested by NAB. This covers cases that have been settled as well as those that are still pending.
Formal requests have been made for the records of the controller, the extra controller, the members, the past chairman, and the secretaries, for a total of 16 people.
According to sources, officials provided insufficient documentation about the appointments during the initial investigation.
After expressing dissatisfaction over the incomplete data, NAB officials have now mandated that the entire record be delivered within a week.
Sources claim that in the following stage of the investigation, beneficiaries of the alleged illegal appointments would be called.
Several government officials are accused of using the commission to help two or three of their own children get government positions after passing the SPSC exam.
