[QUOTE=Arif Rao;156404]@all fellows:

I believe we all should avoid passing speculative comments. The standards of transparency set by the commission are highly respected all around the country. The candidates better prepare with patience for the proceedings of psych/viva and not pay heed to such rumours.[/QUOTE]

Hi,

i totally agree with Mr Arif Rao. We never know what may happen. The same person can turn to be the best for this job....n i believe it is also a rule of bureaucracy that everyone should be seen under the light of his performance....so i hope the decision turns out to b a good one for all the candidates.

I am really confused more than half of the current epic court judges including CJ are PCO judges .... they are clean and other PCO judges are dirty .... what a great discrimination.

@All

There is no need to panic. From what i have gathered i can safely say that the right man has been given the job. Honesty and Integrity of Mr. Anwar-ul-Haq is above board.And as said by Mr. Arif Rao, nepotism and corruption in FPSC is highly unlikely. There was this fear that some stooge might be given the Job, but i would say that "Well done Mr. President for doing away with our fears and apprehensions".

Best of Luck to all who have to appear in interviews.

Regards

Is Justice Anwar-ul-Haq appointment final?

Then what about this.

Bhagwandas declines FPSC job
Tuesday, November 24, 2009
By By Tariq Butt
ISLAMABAD: Justice (retd) Bhagwandas says some senior government officials offered him the post of the Federal Public Service Commission (FPSC) chairman in May this year but he told them that he is barred from holding any office till Dec 14, 2009.

They returned satisfied, he told The News. He informed them that clause 2 of Article 207 of the Constitution placed a bar on retired Supreme Court and high court judges to accept an office of profit till the expiration of two years from their retirement.

Justice Bhagwandas read out the relevant provision, which said: a person who has held office as a judge of the Supreme Court or a high court shall not hold any office of profit in the service of Pakistan, not being a judicial or quasi-judicial office or the office of chief election commissioner or of chairman or member of a law commission or of chairman or member of the Council of Islamic Ideology, before the expiration of two years after he ceased to hold that office.

The former judge said when the government made the offer to him he was busy with the assignment given to him by the Supreme Court about the examination of oil prices. After that, he said the government has not contacted him. However, he said he was hale and hearty.

Under Article 242, the president appoints the FPSC chairman in his discretion. A senior official source said the president was waiting for the end of the two-year constitutional restriction on Justice Bhagwandas to appoint him as the FPSC chairman, a position that is lying vacant for over seven months now.

Justice Bhagwandas had not refused to accept the slot when the government leaders had contacted him and he had just pointed out the two-year constitutional bar on him. If appointed, he would be the first retired judge of a superior court to become the FPSC chairman. Mostly, this slot has been given to retired Army generals.

Meanwhile, during a chat with this correspondent, presidential spokesman Farhatullah Babar termed incorrect a report about the appointment of former PCO judge of the Lahore High Court Justice (retd) Anwarul Haq as the FPSC chairman.

After Lt-Gen (retd) Shahid Hamid, who retired as FPSC chairman on March 30 on completing his three-year term, the office is lying vacant amid reports that the working of the organisation has suffered a lot with inordinate delay in making different appointments.

BTW if Zardari is really waiting for Justice Bhagwan Das t complete his term, then Mr. Zardari :bow

@bambam222

This report may be right as there is no news on the FPSC website for the appointment of chairman. And, we have yet to hear from Justice Anwar himself.

Justice (r) Bhagwan Das nominated as the FPSC chairman
