A CSS-related matter so should be discussed on this great forum

[Suzane Khan]

The following msg is spreading rapidly on social media.
Though it is primarily concerned with the governmental authorities, yet I think it should also be discussed by the prestigious members of CSS forum.
I hope that the moderators shall not find anything in this thread which will make them compel to delete it as soon as possible.



AoA please open CSS exam for all Pakistanis as it is a competitive exam. Restrictions of age limit and number of attempts should be eliminated as early as possible.
All Pakistanis up to the age of 35 with at least Masters degree should be allowed to appear in CSS as many times as they CAN.
Please Sir you are an important part of present government please do something for CSS aspirants.
Regards

Indeed there are so many competent people in our country who really wish and deserve to be a part of civil services but due to either age limit or restriction on number of attempts, are unable to join civil services.

It is right that CSS is a competitive exam ( Muqable ka Imtehan), so instead of making age or attempts as part of the criterion, total emphasis should be upon a candidate's performance in the overall content of the Exam.

There are so many instances that only due to 1 number less in aggregate, or failing by only 1 number in essay paper , candidates lost their one full attempt.

Many even after qualifying the final interview, couldn't get allocation in any occupational group, thus lost both a major attempt as well as 2 precious years of their lives during the long process starting from applying for exam till the Final result.

Elimination of both:

agelimit restriction and
Restriction on number of attempts

Will surely benefit countless competent and patriotic Pakistanis who want to stay in this great country and want to serve it by becoming a competent authority.

Very learned analysis from Wamik .

Actually proper legislation is required in this case.

Some people suggest that only through higher judiciary, the present government can be convinced to legislate upon this matter.
But
Who will convince the higher judiciary first???

The age limit from 28 years to 30 years was increased after great efforts from many petitioners, right??
