[Geek]

ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan has approved a new rotation policy to ensure that the civil servants belonging to the Pakistan Administrative Service (PAS) and the Police Service of Pakistan (PSP) do not stay in a single province or station for more than a specified number of years.

The new Rotation Policy 2020 will be applicable from January 2021 and will replace the rotation policy that was promulgated in 2000. The new policy has linked promotion of civil servants to implementation of the rotation policy.

Under the new policy, the officers belonging to the PAS and the PSP groups will not be able to avail the wedlock policy. The existing wedlock policy allows posting of serving husband and wife at the same station.

It also allows unmarried female government servants to work at the place of residence of their parents and the married female government servants at the place of residence/posting of their husbands who are not in government employment.

The officer will also not be able to get an assignment in violation of the rotation policy which will be applied without any exception.

The civil servants will be posted outside their native provinces after completion of their specialized training and officials who have remained posted at a particular geographical location for a long time will now be posted to locations where there is a need of officers.

According to the policy, male officers from grade-17 to grade-19 are bound to serve in 'hard areas’ for two years.

Male officers selected through the Central Superior Services (CSS) for the All-Pakistan Service will not be transferred from their native provinces for five years of till their promotion to grade-18. The female officers will service in their native province for 3 years or till their promotion to grade-18.

The officers of grade-21 and grade-22 will be transferred or posted according to the need of the province. The posting in a federal department working in a province will be deemed as posting in that particular province.

The Establishment Division will compile details of postings twice a year in January and July in the light of the rotation policy. No federal officer will now be allowed to spend more than 10 years in a particular province.

According to a source, the PTI led federal government introduced the new policy to plug the loopholes in the old policy, which at provides leeway to an officer to return to his or her desired location after spending a brief time at a location by applying for leave or training.

اگر اس ملک کی بیوروکریسی اور عدلیہ سدھر جائے تو ملک کے ٩٠ فیصد حالات میں آٹومیٹیکلی بہتری آ جائے گی
عمران خان اپنے طور پر بیچارہ کوشش تو بہت کر رہا ہے لیکن اب اس ملک کے لوگوں پر منحصر ہے کہ وہ اپنے حالات کی بہتری چاہتے ہیں یا نہیں​

Dr. Sb, Pakistan is a nation of the hard way learners. Theoretically, it is easier to bridle the bureaucracy. Once the realization that IK is to stay another 2 terms with unfaltering support of the establishment, seeps well into their brain, and that the political career of the dacoits has been severed for good, the bureaucracy will yield to IK’s reforms. He may have to terminate a few of the belligerent senior officers who do not comply in order to establish his hierarchy. Bureaucracy is like a wild dog that needs to be subdued with force. Judiciary is an anomaly in this country, which act like cats. Full of themselves, they seem to believe that the whole turf belongs to them, and are not willing to give away their power just because they have too much of it. Secondly, they are almost all political appointees. The only way to change that is to amend the process of their recruitment and utilize the forum of CSS like exam to choose all judges of the higher courts. IK will need 2/3 to make these reforms, for which we need to wait until 2023.

Army ( and intelligence agencies) is the single entity that is not willing to yield even an inch of the very vast territory which they captured from civilians since 1958. It’s they, not the judiciary, who think that the whole turf is theirs. Judiciary has acted as their pawn from 1958 to 2007. From 2007 onwards, judiciary has not worked blindly in their favour. If you are oblivion to it, either you have never lived in Pakistan or you work inside ISPR ( add PTI social media cell to it as well).

My friend, if you have any qualm about the power structure in Pakistan, you may choose to move over to the largest democracy on the planet. Perhaps you will feel satiated there.
I am old enough to have witnessed first hand the follies of both the establishment and our pea brained politicians.

Should be annual rotation basis regardless of anything No govt employee stays in one province for more than a year, only those who have excellent performance can apply for another year extension or have choice where they will be transferred.

This way no one gets to develop roots, a network and make contacts which only facilitate corruption.
