Default Reforms in Bureaucracy

Hi All,

Violation of merit is obnoxious whether it is made in posting of DMG or PCS officers. It is rarely done for PCS officers but in most of the situations such incidents take place for the DMG officers.

In fact it is not only time for decentralization but also for reforms in bureaucracy. Not only provinces services should be given more importance but also other steps should be taken.

In my opinion there is no need to maintain DMG cadre as it is against the spirit of the provincial autonomy. Its officers have a pseudo kind of superiority complex and always call themselves an elite group. Besides this psychological problem, the class has been paralyzing the whole society since birth of Pakistan.

Instead of that all recruitment for the civil services should be made at provincial levels. The federal government can take officers from the provincial services, on merit base, to work in the center. It can harmonize the society better.

Furthermore, there is strong need to bring in new blood at every stage as is being done in Malaysia, Singapore and many other countries. Besides promotions the lateral entries should be made at each and every grade from 18 onward through Public Service Commission. It shall lead the country towards new public management.

I know this proposal will be painful for the both PCS and DMG people but it is where the world is leading now to.
