FPSC ad: SC refuses to issue stay order

INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
KATHMANDU: The Supreme Court refused to issue stay order against the Federal Public Service Commission job advertisement that seeks to
recruit over 9,000 employees in 515 local levels. A division bench of justices Hari Krishna Karki and Ananda Mohan Bhattarai refused to
issue stay order in response to a public interest litigation case filed separately by advocates Jagadev Chaudhary and Bikas Thakur. The
bench observed that the Federal Public Service Commission had opened job vacancies as provincial public service commissions had not been
formed in the provinces
The Supreme Court also observed that the Federal Public Service Commission allocation of reservation quotas was in line with the Civil
Service Act. &More than 400,000 people have applied for open competition, and around 150,000 people have applied for reservation quotas. It
will not be appropriate to issue an interim order as it will deprive these applicants of their right to compete for the jobs,& the Supreme
Court observed in its order. The post FPSC ad: SC refuses to issue stay order appeared first on The Himalayan Times.
