Please confirm whether the announced age relaxation of 5 years would be for all the categories of aspirants or only for govenrment servants. Secondly, also confirm if the rule has been implemented or still discussions are going on.

Seniors and experts plz suggest me is it possible in future and when ? According to Dawn News 27 May 2009.


FAISALABAD, May 26: The Federal Public Service Commission (FPSC), under the new strategy for Central Superior Services (CSS) Examinations-2011, has recommended the government to grant five-year age relaxation to candidates but enhance their requisite educational qualification from fourteen-year schooling to sixteen-year schooling.
FPSC research director Mian Mohammad Sarwar said while addressing a seminar organised by the University of Agriculture Faisalabad (UAF) at Old Senate Hall here on Tuesday.

He said the commission had been performing its duties with integrity and sincerity and procedure of examinations and results was transparent enough and being appreciated at every level. He said that increasing number of aspirants for CSS exams every year was a conspicuous example of the commission’s performance and the pubic confidence.

dear brother,

not sure what is going on.......u quoted DAWN and it seems if it is only a proposal but another fellow quoted DAILY TIMES and it appears if its a policy......a friend mentioned to me y;day that the NEWS said 30 years of age for CSS 2011.........sachi baat tu ye hey ke 2011 is wat far,and our policies are changed like fashionable ladies change lipsticks so not sure what will actually happen.........Allah kare ke age 33 years ho jae and only then i will be able to avail my last chance to appear .

regards

Dear, FPSC has been assigned the task to motivate the students to appear in the Competitive exams. Mian Muhammad Sarwar is the right man to speak on the issues like minimun qualification and age relaxation etc. His recen visit to the Agriculture University Faisalabad was the chain of task assigned to him. I appeared in the exam from gujranwala and he was examiner there. Usually in the beginning or at the end he spoke about the policy formulation and encouraged the candidates to appear in the exam with exorbitant zeal and zest. The facts quoted by him are absolutely right. So we may say that the things has to be finalised but its difficult to predict the time frame... Hope for the best.

I think whatever the decision may be, it has to be clear in terms of policy and timely as well. So that all the aspirants reaching their upper age limit could decide and start praparing for the most prestigious exam of Pakistan...

Dear Members.

The proposal regarding the age relaxation for CSS Exams was moved throug respcective ministry /division to Prime Minister for approval but Prime Minister refered it to cabinit. After discussion in cabit it was decided to to continue old method for conductiing CSS Exam and proposal was rejected in december 2008. How the same prime minister,same cabinit would change its decision. How ever no such type of proposal is under consideration. It is not possible that the decision may be changed by any official of FPSC. But after the appointment of new chairman, if the chairman would be highly potentil then there is possibility to some extent.
But we will be grateful to government if it appoints newchairman fpsc.

Dear,
You are right that last year a similar proposal was rejected by the P.M. but now the FPSC team seems to be serious regarding giving age relaxation.
I was told by some official that this proposal will be accepted this time

a brother mentioned about M.Sarwar being a man at a responsible position to make such high value revelations whereas another bro is also rite when he pointed out that it was the same government which turned out a demand of age relaxation last year.......sincerely speaking,age should be relaxed as proposed by M.Sarwar i-e till 33 years of age ......and the truth is 2011 is quite far,any thing can happen........and if FPSC is seriously considering it then why wait till 2011,why not 2010.......
