Although promotions for OMG officers in recent past have been rapid, there is no future for such federal occupational groups like OMG and Information, officers from which would be posted directly to various Federal Ministries. This is because of the 18th Amendment which has transferred more than 18 subjects to the provinces. In view of this drastic change, the important and future prospects of PMS Officers have greatly enhanced. Also, DMG may face further fall from grace because the impending decision by the Supreme Court in the case between PCS/PMS Officers v. Punjab Govt is likely to favour the PCS/PMS Officers who have been denied promotions and training opportunities at the behest of DMG for quite some time.
